StatTiger 3,188 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 When AU goes play-action, they have thrown the quick out on this play but never the quick slant (off play-action). Oregon, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State run this play very well and it places so much stress on the opposing defense. Jacksonville State ran this play very well against Auburn as well. During his career, Johnson is 61 of 73, throwing within 10-yards of the LOS with no picks and a passer rating of 154.7. Great play on 1st down and 2nd & short, when the LB's are playing the run and the safeties are in cover-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionheartkc 6,150 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Agreed, but it feels like our offense has no rhythm at this point, and timing plays like that require rhythm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REInvestingTiger 2 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Would be an excellent play to add! And would most definitely stress the LBs by making them pay for taking that first instinctual step towards the LOS. Throughout the game, it has an effect of making the LBs one step slower to react to the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

api1957 1,783 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I'd be happy with any completed pass not to the opponent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUGoo 2,659 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 What happened to all the motion we had several years? I remember someone in motion running behind the TB on every play. I remember discussions about how confusing it was, coupled with different plays out of similar sets. Now, I see no motion and same plays out of same sets. Am I wrong?

Don't think you are, There is nothing fast, furious or physical about the AU offenses except Barber and Ricardo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slammer1 409 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Gus has a big decision to make. Is his loyalty to Jeremy or Auburn? I have read that he is very stubborn but if he is as smart as I think he is he will make the right decision. At least I hope he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, I see no motion and same plays out of same sets. Am I wrong? Great observation about the motion. With more of a pocket passer, you would think there would be more. I always enjoyed the orbit motion over the backfield. Hopefully we will see it in Baton Rouge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I was talking about in another thread. We saw a lot of moving parts and many times even the cameramen would be confused. We don't have to have a running QB for that.
