Well, it makes a huge difference as a QB to be required to carry the whole load.

Tanner is alone in the backfield as he was in 2015. So, we don't know how he might've fared under better circumstances.

yep...

Taysom had major accuracy problems and wasn't as fast as he's been in the past.

SandYFan

9/19/17 9:42am

But maybe it's a little more obvious why he wasn't benched for Mangum

Indy Coug

9/19/17 9:44am

he wasn't benched for mangum b/c his perfectly sculpted legs could hide ty's

Tanner's drive against Utah that resulted in a missed field goal was as impressive, if not more so than

i considered that one in my analysis but still opted for beau's 2nd drive of

nashty

9/19/17 12:26pm

Tanner has several TD drives. Beau has none.

Adrielle

9/19/17 5:16pm

Yep. But honestly, who could have expected Tanner to take a nosedive

SandYFan

9/19/17 9:54am

I think the beginning of the 1991 season is a useful history lesson to

Indy Coug

9/19/17 9:56am

So you're saying you saw Tanner becoming what he showed in games 1-2? Really?

SandYFan

9/19/17 10:02am

I'm saying given his supporting cast and how tough the schedule was

Indy Coug

9/19/17 10:08am

Fair enough.

SandYFan

9/19/17 10:12am

Ty played terribly against FSU and PSU. But we should have won the UCLA game

Did I say he was great? Let me go back and read my post.

"Taysom was not the problem last year." Why not? Just because the team is

SandYFan

9/19/17 9:54am

He wasn't perfect, but it's pretty clear now that something else is the major

LifeLongLakerFan

9/19/17 11:53am

If if if.

SandYFan

9/19/17 12:42pm

With the way Hill is playing right now, we'd possibly be 4-0

MarylandFan

Good gravy.

SandYFan

1 TD per quarter to beat LSU. Wisc the reason for "possibly" word choice.

MarylandFan

This gets repeated so often, but do you know that it's true?

Wait a minute. Tanner's performance this year has been horrid, but don't

Ash

9/19/17 5:46pm

The primary reasons for the offensive struggles are simple. Lack of both talent and depth on the offensive line.

Adrielle

9/19/17 12:01pm

This is spot on. Tanner has very little pass protection. To be fair, we have

I watched every offensive play against Portland State and LSU again. I did not

its not just sacks allowed. Its time to throw. Its pocket integrity. And its the running game.

Adrielle

9/19/17 5:13pm

I've only rewatched the first 2 games, but

Iron Coug

9/19/17 9:35pm

Bingo. IMO it's a lack of talent at the skill positions that's the big problem.

Sadly, Burt didn't beat out any of the 1/2 yd and a cloud of dust RB committee.

Bingo! What I said all of last year. Coaching staff road the coat tails of him.

Made me mad last year when Cougar 'fans' whined about Taysom not

BleedCougarBlue2

9/19/17 2:49pm

False. Taysom had an NFL RB to carry the offense. We never got to see what

Ash

I don't think it's as easy as "false" to his statement.

Well, it makes a huge difference as a QB to be required to carry the whole load.

Ash

Offensive line and receivers making bad reads/drops was 75%, taysom was 25%

An interesting post. Are you saying that we have the size and athleticism on the

JoMax

9/19/17 2:33pm

Nope 👎 offense is complex and requires multiple

youngbuck

9/19/17 6:54pm

Not to mention coming off 3 season-ending injuries.

Scott_Tenorman

9/19/17 3:31pm

He seems healthier this year than last. Lighter and much faster

zerome4sooners

9/19/17 4:39pm

All of our opponents had to watch for him to run *every play*. They never have to do that now.

Did you ever stop to think...

PJMort

9/19/17 5:34pm

No considering very few pro set QBs make NFL rosters mostly come from spread

Bobmarleyjr

9/19/17 5:43pm

Hmmmm. Most colleges run the spread. Very few run pro set

PJMort

9/19/17 6:43pm

All the QBs but Kirk Cousins and Luck ran spread that are under 30

Bobmarleyjr

9/19/17 7:54pm

Sorry just read your number at the bottom. Only 5 of 15 did pro set in college

Bobmarleyjr

9/20/17 8:45pm

It makes me wonder what we missed from Taysom because of such a bad offense

Bobmarleyjr

9/19/17 5:42pm

3 pro prospects counting Matthews and Williams

KendoVABeach

9/19/17 6:32pm

Who is Matthews?

No touching

9/19/17 7:21pm

Is this Mitch? Wasn't with the team in 2016.

No touching

9/20/17 9:14am

All I know is I'm soooooo glad that Taysom made an NFL roster!
