teams to stack the box like that. You seem to think I am trying to say this is totally on the QB. I don't believe that, but he is a part of the problem for sure and one of many pieces that need change.

Proof that it's a Tanner problem, not a scheme problem or WR problem.

I don’t disagree with your point, but not many QBs scrambling right are going to

Why was he rolling right?

Coop

10/10/18 1:43pm

This. We have all watched Tanner Ball the last 4 years. Panics and rolls right.

Flippy

10/10/18 1:44pm

Exactly. THERE WAS NO PRESSURE. Bad habit he hasn't broken. He struggles in the pocket.

Easier for a right handed quarterback to roll right and throw?

fldnstrm

10/10/18 2:09pm

vs. planting and throwing? Nope.

dYrtbYkerYder

Obviously. The question was asked why he rolled right?

fldnstrm

10/10/18 10:49pm

TM has the bad habit of rolling right (or left) unnecessarily. That is my point.

dYrtbYkerYder

10/11/18 10:10am

Yes, his consistent panicked run to the right hurts his ability to pass.

SandYFan

10/10/18 1:43pm

I don't believe that was a designed roll out play. That was his own doing.

Rise Against

10/10/18 1:45pm

He wasn’t scrambling for any good reason. There was no pressure

Denesheo

Love made the same play for a TD in the game. He has a little less experience

You misspelled evidence

"panicked" too

displacedute

You could do this on most plays. Tanner struggles to see guys open all the time. Has for 2 seasons now.

That is the better question. Doesn’t look like pressure forced it.

He never looks left - not a glance - and he was wide open from the first

I don't think anyone on this board could play better than Tanner

cambo

10/10/18 1:47pm

Because they're not better qbs means nobody on the board could hit that pass?

I'm not sure . . . Does John Beck post here? Ryan Hancock?

For all of the Tanner apologists, how do you explain this kind of play

The real question you should be asking is:

Ham

We'll see come Saturday if they still do let him play. I for one think that game

Man, that first screenshot is sad, especially on a 3rd and 6th.

westsidecoug

This. It's crazy that they lined up like that on defense.

tcherrin

What's crazy is the teams that HAVEN'T lined up like this. UW and USU

Tanner's biggest problem is bailing from the pocket too early and also holding

+ throwing motion. + no progressions.

One play is your PROOF? Obviously you’re no scientist.

canofpicante

10/10/18 2:06pm

My thoughts exactly. While I am not a Tanner apologist, one play is lousy

Nagurski

Then how about his 114.5 PER in 2018 and 110.8 in 2017?

It's one play that is meant to illustrate the overarching issues being discussed

Byron McNertney

Yeah, but that play is a 3rd down blitz that most teams would do against most QB

Is it unreasonable for me to expect a 5th year senior to recognize that blitz,

I don't think anyone is claiming Tanner never makes the right read or never

dilbert

10/10/18 2:15pm

We would have lost anyway, but you cannot just swat away those 2 TO's of his.

Ash

10/10/18 10:50pm

Your "proof" that Tanner is the problem is because they blitzed on a 3rd down?

viper

10/10/18 2:08pm

I think the point is most of the time teams can totally stack the box on us

westsidecoug

10/10/18 2:16pm

Sad that our WR's can't get open with a man to man coverage? What should Tanner

For one, Tanner is sooooo much better in the shotgun. Just putting him under

10/10/18 2:15pm

I don't know why Detmer and Grimes never figured out that he's a shotgun QB.

IronPotato

10/10/18 10:22pm

Then our coaches must be awful. Because they're the ones that picked him.

Ham

10/10/18 2:22pm

And they’ll be the ones to sit him really soon too.

Turnpike Lane

Thats why you are not a coach/analyst. Katoa was the 5th read on that play.

He always under thrown deep. He just had 6'6" dawgs who wanted to catch the ball

I think he throws far enough, just 0.5 or more seconds late.
