Westin Elliott - Redshirt?

[dawg80]

This is exactly correct. Guy has no vision at all when he does decide to run. One of the best examples was the first drive of the bowl game last year after the fumble recovery. He decided to tuck and run and had a ton of space right in the middle of the field, but instead made a hard left toward the sideline where there were 2 or 3 defenders waiting on him. Turned a 15-yard gain into 3 yards. Have seen the same happen several times this year as well.

That's because he was trying to run out of bounds so he wouldn't have to take a hit.

[Docman5]

He's a afraid to get hit. A wuss. He "runs on eggshells" as the old saying goes. Horrible, because he's chickenshit. And yes, this offense needs a QB who will tuck and run, both in called plays, and when a play breaks down and the field opens up. Smith won't do either.

No need for that kind of language for a guy trying to lead the Bulldogs. Yes he could do better but don't use that kind of language toward him. That was just unacceptable.

I'm not sure how to get an accurate read on J'Mar's ypc because the sacks confound the data. He's not a dynamic runner but he is more than adequate for 4-5 designed runs (not rpo's) per game imo. Our offense simply isn't good enough without that wrinkle. We can keep getting mad but it ain't going to change without an schematic change. That seems obvious to me.

We either don't run RPOs, or J'Mar can't read. There is absolutely no way the D-Line stays on J'Mar every single snap. It doesn't make any sense, either logically or statistically.

Obviously everyone on here is smarter than our coaches, but I did want to take a second to point out to everyone that a RPO is a run/pass option, where the line run blocks and the quarterback has the option to either hand it off or hit a quick passing route before the linemen get too far downfield to be flagged for ineligible receiver downfield. A read option is a run play where the quarterback has the option to hand it off or pull it and run it himself. This is the type of play that you guys (and probably everyone else in the stands) want J'Mar to keep the ball and run on. We run both types of plays, but since the first game, we haven't passed much on the RPO plays that have been called. Carry on.

Many RPOs, including those in the offense we run**, include both a read option and a pass option. It's essentially the new triple option: give to the back, keep, or pass. Not all RPOs include the QB keeper option, and maybe ours don't, because J'Mar never seems to pull.

**By we, I mean the high school where I teach and coach, not the Bulldogs.

Until he lowers his shoulder and takes on a tackler to gain extra yards...he's chickenshit. His lousy play is unacceptable.

BTW, when I first typed that, I paused and thought, some snowflake is gonna gripe about that term. I changed it to something less descriptive. And then I thought, no, it best describes his unwillingness to act like a football player. Nothing special about him. Would you accept Dancy, McKnight, Tucker, hook sliding to avoid contact? Well, maybe you would...

I swear I didn't even know we still had that silly "Hall of Fame" board. I haven't been on there in at least 2 years.

Looks like your 5,000th post is coming up soon, 65. I'm sure it will be equally as brilliant.

Thank you for your dad’s service. I am so thankful for guys like him.

But you’re still a freak show.😬

I look forward to seeing what Elliott can do.

Our coach talked about replacing defensive players, but has never talked about replacing offensive players.
