He needs to see them BEFORE they are open... throw them open

I've been hard on Jalen on a few things last year but there are some really dumb takes in this thread.

We got to run the old inside trap instead of stopping it.

No o-line is good if the qb holds the ball 4 seconds.

... his internal clock needs to improve. Milroe’s 32.4% pressure-to-sack conversion rate was the sixth-highest in the nation as he held onto the ball for an FBS-leading 3.45-second average. He also needs to improve his consistency in the short and intermediate game, as his 68.0 passing grade on throws 0-19 yards stood just 100th in the country.

A return to a lot of the concepts we used with Sims, Coker, and freshman Hurts under Kiffin. Lots of motion, jet sweeps, WR screens, etc., run the damn ball, and take deep shots when you have a clear advantage. It'd solve a lot of his issues with getting the ball out on time and give him plenty of easy completions to, hopefully, keep the drive moving.

I need to rewatch the A-Day game but it felt like Milroe was making decisions and releasing rather than waiting for someone to come open deep.

To start, good snaps that will allow him the opportunity to even have a chance at making the proper read. Then solid protection from the OL from the opening snap of Game 1. Give him High/Low reads. Split the field in halves or even thirds. The first two will go a long way in to how successful he will be and how successful this team can be this fall.

But it’s not! When the QB has to drop their eyes to the ground to find the bouncing ball, he is taking his eyes off of his read progression. For example, if the play call has a flood route to the right with a short, intermediate, and deep route to that side, with a backside post or drag, the QB read is to peak deep, then go to the play side Corner to see if he is bailing or squatting on the route. If safety is over the top, whatever the corner does is wrong. But if the QB has to look down to find the snap that is low and to the left or skipping back to him, or even worse fired over his head, then the play is trash! Even though the X receiver may have been all by himself because the safety jumped the drag route or the intermediate route was wide open because the corner sat on the out or stop route.

Everything I have said about our coordinators over the years have been factual.

You can't actually address that but you can make a personal shot. Okay lol

The amount of times it actually happened IS overblown. Yes, snaps were an issue, but only one of MANY issues. But, we all love a hero, a champion, a Heisman contender. So, when our champion fails, we look for blame elsewhere. A scapegoat. That scapegoat might have had fewer deficiencies than our champion, but he's a faceless cog in the wheel and he did make some mistakes and they were of the type that even the simplest among us could see. And, most fortunate of all, that faceless cog left the team. The perfect scapegoat.

Awesome, another shite on Jalen thread thinly disguised as something else.


It's amazing how much they love to shite on Jalen but at the same time have been so defensive about horrible as BOB and Rees.

We have had a significant issue at coordinator for years. We had no DC for years until last season (and people here defended him for years before finally realizing he was trash) and we haven't had a competent OC since our championship season with Sark.

Weird how they love defending these bums on here but will trash a QB that has to work with them quick

A very large majority of the snaps were fine. JM inability to process the checks at the LOS, read defense, work through his progressions, and make a decision on whether to hit the check down, run, or take a 20yd loss sack is not because of the few bad snaps per game.

What ? Everyone just calling it like they see it. Why would anyone just decide to dislike him for no reason ? Go ahead and say race, then explain why this fanbase was head over heels in love with Bryce Young and Tua

Dude, if you don't stop talking about BoB -(who by the way had a Heisman winning QB, with the worst OLine in Bama history)

You are not ahead of anyone here- nobody liked BoB. Stop bringing him up like you were sounding the alarm and nobody would listen... WE ALL HATED BoB ! Get it through your thick skull.

Fact remains Bryce won a Heisman with BoB. Meanwhile
BoB told JM he was not a QB.

That means JM was so bad in practice that BoB felt his best career move would be to switch positions. Why would he do that ?

I'll tell you why- yeah BoB was horrible OC, but he was a straight shooting a-hole. He didn't pat arse to save hurting feelings. Once BoB realized JM couldn't even grasp calling protections, and had no clue where to throw the ball he realized all the athleticism in the world was not going to turn him into a QB so he bluntly told him he didn't think QB was his best opportunity for the NFL.

32 out of 66 snaps in the semi-final against Michigan were considered off-target and 1 more was snapped while Milroe wasn't looking. So that's half. Half of Seth's snaps were bad in that game.

Is that an official stat, or just some guy on redditt?

There were not 32 snaps off target enough to affect the play.
