Tony87 53 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Offensive adjustments will be interesting, no doubt. Love to see them put Stidham in a rhythm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDUBB4AU 5,071 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Defense has played great. That front is as good as any in college football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnthePlains 2,014 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Stidham hasn't played in 2 years, still working out some jitters and rust. Hoping the playcaling is intentionally vanilla like some are saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djg0017 726 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 1. Offensive line = ??? 2. Why so many wildcats...obvious 3. KJ is peanut brittle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 3 turnovers in the half. That needs to be corrected quickly. So, is Slayton another Auburn receiver who has alot of talent but can't catch a cold?

AUgrunt 20 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Anyone at the game ? Does the student section DJ seem distracting ? Does the DJ and stadium music play at the same time ? Over my TV , it sounds like to much. And no I'm not trying to be an old fart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What good does that do if Clemson sells out the run next week and Stidham doesn't get more passing reps which he sorely needs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the pressure but sometimes he also bails This is his first game in 2 years.....hes gonna have nerves and be in his own head somewhat. He also isn't being done any favors by his O-line or the play calling so far. This, in my opinion at least, was the same thing that was happening to both JJ and SW as far as play calling. Doesn't matter how good of a QB you are if you are constantly put in bad situations. HB dive for short gain, WR screen for no gain or a loss, 3rd and long pass with DE's ears pinned back. Brady might even look bad if he was forced to do that OVER AND OVER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's under pressure every drop back. he needs a pocket to be effective, like most QBs. Also a combination of maybe not being sure of what he's seeing and pulling the trigger on his throws. People have to remember he's been out of football (live contact) for a while. Oline certainly has to step up but improvements needed all around for a better second half from the offense. We should be thankful we're getting GA Southern game 1. Sure some may be like it doesn't look good for the Clemson game but we have the 2nd half to get in a rhythm on offense to carry it over to the Clemson game on offense. Starters need to play much of the 2nd half on offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't confuse having a pulse on offense to being vanilla. I'm not confused. The play calling is basic as one would expect vs a Sunbelt team when you have Clemson the next week. Execution is the issue. Even that isn't horrible as we've run up 305 yds. But turnovers and Stidham nerves are hindering the pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr82b4au 5,568 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 4 things: Play calling is same- terrible. Stid looks scared. The timer in his head is going off too soon. But he has not played ball in 2 years. KJ is made of glass. Defense looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd expect to try to get Stidhams confidence by working on his progressions and getting him easy throws. All his throws either confuse him or he's not certain what to do.
