with going back upfield imo. If he commits to coming back and securing the catch it doesn't get knocked out.

Here you go...both look pretty bad to my untrained eye.

Thanks. Coulda been caught but the defender is the one who hit it out.

I wouldn't classify it as a drop, would have taken a lot of strength to retain

9/12/17 3:31pm

My initial reaction was to argue with you but then I rewatched it

I still think he started trying to turn before catching the ball and opened up

cougaman

9/12/17 6:06pm

His shoulders and hips didn't turn, he never had a chance to go upfield

9/12/17 6:36pm

He needs to make the catch and go out of bounds there. Getting a first down was

cougaman

9/12/17 7:04pm

His body should be on a 90' angle to the throw, he was only off by a few degrees

9/12/17 7:18pm

Do you disagree that his instinct should have been to get to the sideline and

cougaman

9/12/17 7:22pm

Priority 1a catch, 1b get out of bounds

9/12/17 7:42pm

Yeah, It wasn't a horrible play. Even if he catches that he is turning the wrong

cougaman

9/12/17 7:49pm

He didn't turn the wrong way, that was the called route

9/12/17 7:58pm

He was turning upfield and inside instead of toward the sideline. Noway he gets

cougaman

9/12/17 8:04pm

That was the called route, can't blame him for the route, OC makes that decision

9/12/17 8:08pm

I guess I just assumed the route was a comeback, and it was his decision to turn

cougaman

9/12/17 8:11pm

inside and outside digs are known before the ball is snapped

9/12/17 8:22pm

Thanks. Any play in that situation should be to the outside or a straight

cougaman

9/12/17 8:58pm

Straight isn't an option unless you plan on adding the back flip

9/12/17 9:40pm

Yeah he maybe could've been more aggressive coming back to the ball but

hits him square in the middle of the chest - if that isn't a drop, then i'm not

I thought it was originally more of a good defensive play, but looks like Beau

Both great throws by one Tanner Mangum. Right where they could get out of bounds if need be

He should have come back to the ball. Had plenty of room for the first down.

NachoCougar

That drop by Hifo hurts my stomach. Ugh.

NachoCougar

9/12/17 3:22pm

yep I feel for Mangum, he coulda had the drive to be a hero and he threw two

me too

FWcoug55

9/12/17 7:34pm

Yes. And 1st down by Hifo. Both were very bad drops--open with no defender.

dtownCoug

Correct on Hifo's. Not correct on Tanner's

LifeLongLakerFan

9/12/17 7:43pm

Tanner's could have been caught... Hifo's absolutely should have been caught...

canndyman

9/12/17 5:00pm

Agree on Hifo all the way, but Tanner's should have been caught. The only

GSwarriorcoug

Good point... If he gets his hands on that ball, and secures it properly,

Drop - Beau seems like a track guy trying to be a football player
