RE: Really so Tanners Completion % is less than Taysoms %. So how does that

Tanner's completion record as a Freshman is only one % off Taysoms best year. It was better by far than Taysom's this year and if you combine all years for Taysom it is better. His yards per completion is nearly 4 yards longer than Taysom's for his career. It is 13.7 yards per completion to Taysom's 11.1.

Seems WR's are running variable routes, so they change their route on the fly,

viper

10/24/16 1:03pm

Sure that happens at times, but it doesn't mean

GhostOf84

10/24/16 1:06pm

I agree with you re Tanner's passing ability but I thought practices are closed

10/24/16 1:03pm

there's holes in the hedges

10/24/16 1:04pm

Yep

GhostOf84

10/24/16 1:08pm

So how have you attended the practices if they are closed?

Machiavelli

10/24/16 1:52pm

Maybe he has some connection to the team and he isn't at liberty to come out and say it? Just a thought.

sakhr

10/24/16 2:37pm

Seriously?

Kerbouchard

10/24/16 8:34pm

YUH, SERIOUSLY

Machiavelli

10/24/16 10:47pm

One thing he did a lot last year was throw to his receiver even if covered

donnerstag

10/24/16 1:06pm

You're assuming he's only throwing up it for grabs. You can throw them open too

GhostOf84

10/24/16 1:09pm

or throw comebackers but that would require the WR and QB to kind of be on the..

icecougar

10/24/16 6:32pm

He has tried a few times with Kurtz but Nick has a hard time sometimes getting..

icecougar

10/24/16 6:20pm

This is absolutely how he looked last year. I posted about it in the offseason

Machiavelli

10/24/16 10:48pm

So the routes are pretty complex, specifically in what Ty is trying to do

TheLoneCougar

10/24/16 1:13pm

Thanks. Most offenses do that (shockingly)

GhostOf84

10/24/16 1:16pm

I agree.

TheLoneCougar

10/24/16 1:19pm

I don't care who plays Q. I think Taysom got the nod becasue the o-line is less

PhilPete

10/24/16 1:38pm

We said the same thing in 2014 and then Stewart threw for 2800 yards

GhostOf84

10/24/16 3:52pm

Half the incompletions are drops. How would Tanner overcome that?

cougsrule

10/24/16 1:45pm

Some of those are absolutely the receiver's fault, but there's also no denying

dilbert

10/24/16 1:50pm

This is hilarious to me. A more catchable ball? And you know this how?

cougsrule

10/24/16 2:10pm

Um, by watching receivers catch and/or try to catch passes from each

dilbert

10/24/16 2:27pm

Really so Tanners Completion % is less than Taysoms %. So how does that work?

cougsrule

10/24/16 2:29pm

RE: Really so Tanners Completion % is less than Taysoms %. So how does that

BYUgeezer

10/24/16 4:15pm

But... but... the receivers...and the drops...TAYSOM IS BETTER!

Jeffe

10/24/16 10:34pm

dilbert is right. Tanner throws with more touch. Taysom rifles everything even

Jericho

10/24/16 4:03pm

Well, there's definitely truth to it. Particularly true for crossing routes.

BlueTooth

10/24/16 5:34pm

Do you have eyes??? Or ears?

SC-Zoobie

10/24/16 11:50pm

Haha. Our receivers rarely catch the ball when it hits them in stride.

cougsrule

10/25/16 12:03am

Or even when it hits them in the chest!

LDTemplar

10/25/16 9:21pm

We're also missing the fact that the receivers do occasionally make stellar

GhostOf84

10/24/16 4:16pm

"those drips can be attributed to him throwing a fast balls on spey rows"???????

LDTemplar

10/24/16 5:55pm

Haha, I think I meant to say "those drops can be attributed to him throwing

dilbert

10/24/16 7:40pm

Half? LOL... you've counted them all? Hahaha

Coug

10/24/16 2:39pm

I have gone through every play. Go back through my posts. You will see some of

cougsrule

10/24/16 2:50pm

Oh yes yes... where you don't blame Taysom at all for 1 single bad throw... always the OL or WR's fault....

Coug

10/24/16 2:59pm

Yep exactly. Next time you should read the posts.

cougsrule

10/24/16 3:12pm

Like the original poster, have you seen the majority of the practices? Do you have an in with the program that we don't?

sakhr

10/24/16 3:08pm

Yes I have a link to the program that would know better than just about anyone

cougsrule

10/24/16 3:14pm

So you personally have no first hand knowledge and the coaches are perfect...so no different than half of CB?

sakhr

10/24/16 3:21pm

Think what you want.

cougsrule

10/24/16 4:44pm

Last game there were a lot of drops. No debating that.

GhostOf84

10/24/16 3:53pm

What about the drips?

LDTemplar

10/24/16 6:25pm

Half? Hardly. And OBVIOUSLY drops will still happen, don't be ridiculous.

Kerbouchard

10/24/16 8:35pm

I've watched BYU Football for 40 years. No way Tanner is behind Taysom in terms

miblue

I would expect Tanner wouldn't be waiting until they get open and would be...

Pathetic.

cougsrule

10/24/16 8:29pm

Yeah, wanting better QB play sure is pathetic.

sakhr

10/24/16 8:39pm

QB play isn't the problem.

cougsrule

10/24/16 8:53pm

I pray for those who have to work with you in group situations. I can only imagine how you are when you screw up.

sakhr

10/24/16 8:57pm

That is so weird.

cougsrule

10/24/16 9:02pm

Saying none of this is Taysom's fault is what's weird. Especially when national football experts all look at the film

sakhr

10/24/16 9:15pm

I have never said none of it is Taysoms fault.

cougsrule

10/24/16 10:09pm

Yes it is. It just isn't the only problem.

SpiffCoug

10/24/16 9:30pm

It's a team problem. Receivers are especially playing poor as is the line.

cougsrule

10/24/16 10:09pm

wilsdad

The law suit papers are on the way.....

LDTemplar

Oh no, I got a thumbs down!

LDTemplar

You aren't being held hostage. If you don't like this team, don't watch.

Getting ready for the future??

wilsdad

So, you feel more entitled to an opinion because you donate less than 1%

doubleduce

10/25/16 10:00pm

If you have fullback & TE the defense has 7 in box, outside & flat is open only

Bobmarleyjr

10/24/16 11:11pm

I know for a fact all practices are closed why make that claim? And the offense

MangyUte

If a yewt spouts off on cougarboard does anyone hear it?
