Disagree with this. I don't know that I would say his performance was awesome. It was better, but we were playing Mercer. I thought he played better in the second half, I'm hoping he is still shaking off the rust.
He is still holding onto the ball way too long and not always making good decisions. His decisions also need to come at a much quicker pace. He missed some wide open guys. I think the performance was more about playing an inferior opponent.
Agree 100%. I was nauseated.
First, your starting QB shouldn't be throwing 40 times against fucking Mercer. Every time I looked he was making the same panicked mistakes. The fucker has yet to step up in a pocket. He's crab clawing outside or pussy cringing into squats. He should have had 300 yards in the first half and watched the second in shorts and sunglasses.
Second, you shouldn't run one guy 40 times against fucking Mercer. Not unless he's the third string guy and you need to get him the reps. By mid third quarter against fucking Mercer the guys in the booth should be scrambling to figure out just who in the fuck that was who made the play.
That's what those games are for. Give the starters enough work so they stay sharp and let the backups earn their stripes so if somebody gets injured later in the season they aren't completely green.
Y'all can look for unicorns in the toilet if you want, but there was nothing about that performance (except on defense) which was encouraging at all.
Fuck Gus.
