impact of mobile QB = UMich now different

[blion72]

I have always thought that JJ McCarthy impact was his mobility. Good passer - not great, but routinely could get first downs with his mobility. Now UMich has a runner at QB who cannot pass and a passer who cannot run. granted that they lost a lot of guys to the NFL but no way they should have deteriorated this much.

very hard to play CFB at a high level with stationary QB. we can see this with Drew - in games where he uses the run we are much more effective.

QB isn't the biggest difference- if you know what I mean

JJ McCarthy’s greatest impact was handing off to Corum who ran behind a really good OL.

Sure, it's the lack of a good mobile QB that has Michigan taking a step back this year. We'll go with that.

 

[ClarkstonMark]

which QB is a passer that cannot run? I haven't seen one ... I just see bad QBs

Tuttle’s big problem is that he’s not accurate. He was all over the place yesterday. He’s 25, did not know that.

Poor quarterbacking is one of Michigan’s big problems this year. One dimensional team which isn’t as good at running the ball this year as last year.

P.S. I did get your point though which was well taken.

This is all true, but an even greater advantage was knowing the opponent’s play prior to even snapping the ball.

As is evident with their current performance.

Let us not underestimate the impact of losing Connor Stalions on Michigan football

Will Curt Cignetti be at Michigan or USC next year?

Will Curt Cignetti be at Michigan or USC next year?

He’s 63 years old. I don’t see him leaving for another gig.

Florida is desperate.

IU doesn't pay Cignetti enough to keep him and I doubt they match stupid-money.

That said, I don't think UM fires Moore after only one year and it's too expensive for USC to get rid of Riley unless they have a complete collapse, which is possible after yesterday's performance.

They are 11-9 in their last 20 games under Riley and they just lost to the Twerps. I think the collapse is happening. I just hope they shellack ND and shut up their insufferable fans.

Riley's buyout is estimated to be nearly $90mm. He's not getting fired.

They cannot complete a forward pass....running QB or not. McCarthy benefitted a ton from a great ground game, but he also had a completion rate of 70%.

Would anything short of the Rapture shut Notre Dame fans up?

He was 62 last year. Huge difference?

Catholics do not believe in the Rapture either... so that probably will not matter.
