Rate Stephen Morris' Performance

B+. That pass to Scott that turned into an INT was an NFL throw. That was a tight window and he managed to fit it in there perfectly. Like somebody else said, he did lock on to receivers and that needs to be corrected, but his accuracy and decision making was nice to see since we already know he can sling it deep. I'm excited to see what else he can do, this also really makes me want to keep Fisch for a long time. Dude can develop QB's.

B+.

The drops by Scott and Hurns (in the endzone) were NFL caliber throws. He showed nice touch and made use of his tools wisely. The biggest question mark going into this game were his game management and decision making and he passed that test with flying colors. Consider that he ran the hurry up offense with efficiency and only one false start in that offense (which was Shane's fault). His arm speed gets the ball to our players a second earlier, allowing them to use their quickness early. He went through his progressions really well for the most part.

If this is what we get from Stephen Morris all year, then I'm happy with that. He did very well with the plays called for him.
 
he seems to have a cannon compared with the last few years of Jacory

hopefully every day he and the WR will improve, the play to Hurns across the middle for 21 and the TD to Lewis were things of beauty
 
How can someone rate that a C+? Just wondering...
I would give him an B+ based solely on his completion pct, control of the offense, and his decision making was solid. Ohh and he led us to VICTORY! That kind of has to count for something..... He will get an A when he moves the ball a bit further down field and I would like to see more confidence inside the pocket...
 
A...was a victim of several drops, one of which led to a pick...had a couple nice runs too

When was the last time we didn't complain about qb play? This season we may actually have an offense that's worth watching, that we don't close our eyes on every deep pass. ****, with his hose of an arm we don't have time to worry about ints deep.

B performance yesterday... Some room to improve but overall very good. With some more games we have a legit qb threat.
 
B-

Managed the game pretty well and got the victory. That is job 1

Still has not developed any touch on his throws.

D1 WR's should be able to catch virtually everything thrown their way but sometimes a nice zip is all that is needed. You don't have to try and break bones every time you throw the ball.

Throws were a little off/low.

Could have trusted his legs more and gotten more hidden yards that DC's can't contain or game plan for.

Still locks into his primary receiver. Almost cost us a pick 6 but he throws so **** hard even the other teams players can't catch his ball.

Touch young man, learn some touch. Learn how to give a pump fake after all of those slants, bubble screens, and hitches and believe me your life will be soo much easier because of it.

Defenses will no longer be able to squat down on our short stuff once a few pump fakes take place they will be too scared and it will open up everything for our speedy receivers to do some damage with their legs for a change.

Still staring down wr and it seems that Fisch is afraid to throw the ball downfield with him. Hard to really tell on the Fisch thing because he could have been running basic bubble screens so he wouldn't give KSU anything to look at.

Great post. I'd give him a solid B. He had a good, not amazing game, against a putrid and injury riddled defense. Aside from BCU and Duke, it was the worst D he will face. Next weekend is the real test for Morris and the rest of the team.
 
I'm very happy with Morris right now, he's a leader, motivator, has poise, physically he's a beast, and he's only going to get better
