cole256 17,084 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I have to see stuff on the field personally myself. Jf3 may be fast but can be secure the football? Actually that goes for sw too because I remember him fumbling some times too but we recovered the ball. Is jf3 really as bad throwing as some make him out? Is sw really as good at throwing as they make him out? Heard different things from different people who have all been solid. But once again people making decisions off what they heard, that can't be good. I think having good wr will help any qb on the roster. Can jf3 improvise under pressure? Are the questions about both guys attitudes valid? There's alot I have to see with my own eyes. But hey that's just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just noting that FK3 has gotten a lot of hype out of a modest college career. I actually haven't seen as much hype about him, so to speak. If anything, he has been getting critiqued like crazy out of all the QBs, which is fine, but please critique all QBs with the same standard.I have seen hope and optimism on what he may become. I have seen way more hype for our current QBs, TBH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better? Regardless, it isn't anger, it's incredulity that some people think the only possible way this team could be successful is by having a running QB. It's ludicrous. He might be the answer, he might sit on the pine. Such is the case with all of the QB's on the roster...and their style of play is the least of the worries.

Is the power run game going to be better with JF3 or SW at qb that is my question for you. I think we saw how the offense would be with SW last year. Obviously you support SW starting which if he gives us best chance to win so do I. Do you think our offense performed well enough last year with SW starting? What makes you think this year will be different? Personally, I think the upgraded WR corps will make a big difference. I've never seen a D1 team drop so many balls that hit them in the hands. If everyone knows that you can NOT complete a pass, it's going to be very, very hard to have a decent run game, IMHO. I don't see why SW needs to be a home run threat to make the zone read game work. If he can make the read and pick up five or six yards, that's a successful play. I'm not sure he can take the beating, but outside of that I think that his passing combined with better WRs might offset the fact that he's never going to take it to the house with his feet.

GTNupe11 2,034 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 JJ didn't impress me. SW didn't impress me. JFIII has never taken a snap. Let's see what happens September 3rd, 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am optimistic having seen what Sean can do as a Freshman...he can make most throws required of him. I expect to see some sort of 80/20 split..hopefully the staff can execute substitutions cleanly this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austudnt23 1,432 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Yes I belive a little over 5.0, I believe E had he exact number in another thread. That is without pads on also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
au75 75 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I enjoyed watching the documentary and I think the story can be edited to show what the makers want to say. I think JP3 can start but so can SW. It is going to be a great preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohreally 3 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Been through a few of these and remember the thinking at the time: J. Burger Opelika Krystal warrior... Clayton Beauford speed guy... R. Campbell thought to be too slow... D. Craig schoolyard QB... C. Trotman too slow... J. Campbell can't understand Al's playbook... B. Cox mysterious illness... C. Todd has no chance... B. Trotter high school QB... F. Stankunas next level talent... Meiko Collier trying his hand at receiver... K. Frazier parade all .... N. Marshall arrested... J. Johnson rips Auburn High School in the playoffs (Reuben Foster chasing him all night) ... Kodi Burns trying his hand at receiver.. Jason Smith will get a look... Jonathon Wallace signed at QB... Cameron Newton investigation ongoing... Some of these guys I cheered and are legendary figures at Auburn and some just turned out to be good people. Anxious to see what 2016 brings. P.S. The biggest jerk quarterback I ever met was G. McElroy at the senior bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never heard JFIII complain about playing time the whole documentary. He only complained about 1 play call that was probably a bad call anyway. He didnt even say It to the coach. He said It to a teammate. Mostly, he was just confident he was going to run all over every team Ihey played. People are just complaining because they are comparing things he said In the documentary to our players that get Interviewed by the media and say what our fan base wants to hear. I wonder what our players are saying when huddled up on the sidelines laughing and joking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at the same time the kid you keep being down on came in and pushed the guys here. I agree with you on the style of play stuff actually. But you pretty much get agitated at people that do the exact same thing you do except it's a different qb. At least that's my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
