Oh I agree but he's right, we don't know which group allowed the sacks and we all know how bad the drop off is. Either way, they best fix it now; 3 weeks to go.

Hopefully they perform better this weekend (both QBs and ol). ****, since Barry was generally accurate, no one ran away w the QB Comp. I hope one of these 3 get their **** together this week

the reality of the situation is that the O line is probably going to have a rough time in game 1. HC in his first game, new OC, potentially a new QB, new center, new LT and RT, guys all over the line who have never played together, hostile environment etc etc... all signs point to it not going well. the key for the staff is not letting a bad game 1 from the O line wreck the offense's entire season.
 
If the qbs aren’t live and without knowing which units gave up sacks it’s hard to have too stern of an opinion of the oline until games are played especially when we know all the qbs played with the 1 and 2 oline. Just like in one of the scrimmages in the spring the headlines were “Um’s oline gave up a number of sacks” but in reality very few of those were given up by the first team Oline. To add to that a number of these sacks are “touch” sacks that most likely wouldn’t occur in a real game.
 
I just think you guys are underestimating our DL when it comes to OL performance. We got some animals on that DL, I’d be shocked if they wasn’t giving the OL worlds of trouble. Doesn’t mean they(the OL) still can’t be vastly improved in comparison to last season. You couldn’t ask for better preparation to get ready for UFag then facing our DL on a day to day basis.

Hope you’re right. We really won’t know for sure until 8/24.
 
so our OL, against our 1st string D, is Swiss cheese. ..
Tate couldn’t get off a long pass and NKosi and Williams threw Int,s..
No mention of a Fullback in the backfield to help...

Can't believe I went 16 pages in knee deep of qb poo again. Went through all that and have yet to see any one recognize how ******* ridiculous completing 71% of passes is even in a scrimmage. Let alone have three quarterbacks average that percentage.

I see some trying to downgrade the achievement with **** like "well what if those are all dump off passes". ILL ******* TAKE IT. We have playmakers left and right, IDGAF if they're catching the ball 40 yards down the field or leaking late into the flat, give them the **** ball with space and watch them work.

I went back and looked, in all of last season there was ONE team that managed a completion rate above 71%. Here's the kicker, it was Georgia ******* tech and their geriatric *** offense that threw a total of four passes.
 
Thing I got from what was said other than all the QB squabbling was that Robert Knowles was the lead tackler which to me means the RBs were getting to the next level which means our OL was getting a push which would be great or that our DL was giving up large chunks of yardage in the run game.

I’m hoping it’s because our OL was getting good push against what’s supposed to be a great DL and not the alternative..

Now back to the squabbling about the QBs.

Like I said, Barry was wrong about Tate rushing for his TD. It was the throw to Harley.

Also, the Baxa FG at the end was to “win” the scrimmage. Tate got the ball with 1:16 left (ones v. ones) and set up the FG.

I wonder how Enos/Diaz decided on which QB would get the chance to "win" the game. Maybe Tate was just next up in the rotation.

prolly that. i don't think its that deep if Manny allowed the opinion to be Jarren played slightly better than the others but not all that special
