That offense doesn’t even come close to touching the ceilings of the offenses directed by dynamic QBs that can throw deep though. Gus has said over and over he wants to run down hill and throw the ball deep. Joey brings an extra dimension with the running game in that aspect. We can always agree on one thing Jeff, if nothing else, that JG gives us the best opportunity for greatness at QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick.AU 13,281 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I’ve said, and you can look it up. If we unlock JG’s full potential, he’s making trips to NY aka heisman finalist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want all the actors in play to realize the potential we see. That includes Gus and JG himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For real - I think you underestimate what the coaches see in Gatewood. I know you are his biggest fan, but I think the coaches see it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He tried to get another QB in Kelly Bryant (DT- not as high of ceiling imo) and he keeps recruiting pro style QBs. I don’t know what he wants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly is more of a known quantity at this point, but I would take Gatewood every day of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAG 33,997 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 So it looks like we got another faction of QB fans. How about support what is best for Auburn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I just didn’t think interior line played well at all. Maybe they will improve. How did the line look compared to last year? About the same?

The Plainsman 948 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I am sure all are thinking it, but if we do not get our speed guys back, then one has to think it is Gatewood as we will be more run heavy .. and even more run heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why is a big deal being made of it? Let's see what happens the 2nd scrimmage, then we can really talk. Plus the QBs didn't have the element of running that will be instrumental in our offense this year. Zone read changes things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAG 33,997 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 FYI: Stidham threw a TD pass. He also avoided d-line pressure. Go Stids Go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Win4AU 4,054 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 After listening to that Marcello podcast I almost wonder if this scrimmage was meant to put the QBs and the offense under duress to see how they would react? If Gus opens up the offense a little more Wednesday and the offense performs better I guess we’ll know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abw0004 10,125 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 One thing I would be curious about is if this year Gus has the defense really go after the offense, and last year they didn’t due to what we knew (or thought we knew) what we had on offense. So that it’s not as bad as it appeared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUght2win 6,854 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 It's possible I am in the "blind hope" stage of the offseason, but I don't take today's offensive failures as a negative. This offense needs to be pushed by the top-level defense we have. Forge them in the fire. If our O can survive without their confidence totally shattered, playing other defenses will feel like a cakewalk in comparison to what they see in practice.
