The TV replays have clearly shown open WRs, but Thorne is not used to SEC speed and he hesitates every time, then panics when he sees the rush. Ashford simply can't throw. Nothing new there. Believe it or not, they have speed in the big 10 too. Thorne can't complete an accurate pass beyond 10 yards to save his life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I don’t know what you can do to fix this offense this year. Time to get everybody reps and hope things start to click. Need another round of recruits and transfers. Yeah, beyond just beating probably the two weakest teams in the league and another cupcake I'm okay with sacrificing this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gr82b4au 5,568 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Thorne is a huge disappointment. He was completely rattled and held the ball too long. He had 3 guys wide open, including one that was open, and missed by 10 yards. we should have been ahead at halftime. The playcalling is not great, but the Thorne quarterback play is atrocious and affects everything. He is awful, like TJ awful. The coaches are just as pissed and surprised as we are… he cannot complete simple passes. He was brought in as a 2 year starter and just stinks. …and Robby is Robby. we need to recruit 2 QBs this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dual-Threat Rigby 8,819 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Eh they missed like two potential TDs, just from what the broadcast showed us. Hooks or whoever it was needed to make that tough catch for Ashford too, even though it was a meh throw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy for him I’ve seen Tennison and Pegues playing really good for Ole Miss today too. So 3 Auburn transfers doing their job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If plays are there be made (open receivers), and are not made consistently, can we really blame playcalling? A one-dimensional offense has to be really good at that one-dimension in order to be consistently successful, otherwise that one-dimension ends up getting shut down too. There is no evidence that the offense is good enough at rushing to overcome being one-dimensional, against a defense that has a pulse. Freeze and Montgomery cannot really playcall their way around that, or harness sorcery to field a QB that can consistently make throws that are there to make. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gets moved to Defense at Auburn transfers Ole Sis and plays, guess what, dline. I think he didn’t like Auburn and wanted to play where he was from. Tennison was just stuck behind what’s been the best position group in Auburn football for the past several years 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift 350 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Like so many Auburn QBs before, Our QB1’s eyes drop at the first sign of a pass rush. Doesn’t matter at that point what routes the recievers are running cause he doesn’t see them. QB2’s first instinct is to run rather than scan the field or execute the play called. Pretty easy to scheme for it you are a D Coordinator. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think some of the dead weight in the QB room needs to be shown the door. Here are our options currently: Thorne- The passing QB that can't actually hit open WRs because he is scared of the rush. An upper classman that plays like a Freshman. Auburn's current turnover machine. Ashford- A running QB that makes the wrong reads on a zone read play. Nobody thinks he can throw consistently. Auburn's old turnover machine. Geriner- An under classman that cannot beat out the two crap shows above. Couldn't beat out TJ and Ashford last year. Can't beat out Thorne and Ashford this year. All I have heard of him is that he can't grasp the play book for years now and he throws a good ball. . Not Harsin's playbook and not Freeze's playbook. So until and unless I see otherwise, I doubt he will be a starter at Auburn. Edited September 24, 2023 by Chaotic_zx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
