Is Shapen just soft?
- Thread starter TPIPER36
- Start date
He has a tennis player's body playing football.
At least our freshman is getting some good snaps.
As I've said before, I just don't think he's getting the right tutelage. We don't have a quarterback whisperer on staff like Mullen who could tell what he is good at and what he sucks at.
That should be the end for Shapen. No reason for him to play anymore.
He looks shakey but let kamario have the next two and a half games so he’s not completely green starting next year. We got the minimum goal on the season and our best shot at heating Missouri/ole Miss is going to be by going full relf coast offense at this point. Kamario is not going to slice and dice anyone up through the air this year.
That’s about the only way he’s going to get some….by State getting blown out. But should be good for him next year.
He is not a big body and he runs like a running back a lot. Not hard to do the math there. I respect Shapens grit and competitive spirit - he would die for this team.
over/under Blake Shapen flips one more bird at the Miss State fan sections.
Among bad takes this one is solid. You can see doped up from whatever vantage point you have? Not buying.
Did Shapen sleep with your wife or something?
Some of y'all make it so obvious you never played any real football (but I bet you can blow the **** outta that clarinet).
And if you can't clearly see why Shapen starts over Kamario at this point, you can't be helped.

Imagine taking a little hit and just coughing the ball up like it’s a kidney stone you’re trying to get rid of.

I trust KT1’s legs more than I trust Shapen. It’s a plus if KT1 keeps throwing TDs.
Why do you gomers just assume we can do this? Just default to RuNdAbAwL? Don’t know if you’ve noticed but this offense really doesn’t work without throwing it.
I hope we do start Kamario next week, just to show you all how wrong you are. And I’m ok with him playing - but it’s to prepare for next year - not win this year.
Seems like he takes a lot of chances. He's trying too hard at times.
For the Lebby / Shapen combo to work out at least one of them needed to be really good at their trade .
It would help if he didn’t get hit as often.
How many TD drives did Shapen lead today? How many did Kamario lead?
We don’t have the OL to run the Relf offense. And sure, Kamario missed several throws. But his ability to run/scramble and to stand in the pocket instead of crumbling and taking a sack on an arm tackle really change the offense.
On that note, how many times was Kamario sacked today?

I can see why he was starting. I can also see he is absolutely no threat running the ball. He can't really escape a sack. And I also see we aren't winning games because of him.
In Kamario I see potential. It's not going to blossom sitting on the bench. His growth is now item 1. If we win another game that's a plus. No guarantees that playing Shapen will get you that one more win.
We need to try to win the next two on order to try and make a bowl. If we get behind then yeah put KT in. KT can't pass or read defense right now.
Before or after he flips off the fans asking for a friend?
Perfect example is his throw to Treore in the 4th Shapen gets smashed with pressure up the middle there, KT stands strong quickly recognizes the pressure and makes a great throw to Treore
Shapen just sits it the pocket and gets sacked. Kamero can run it, and he’s also a threat to go deep. I think it’s no question he gives us the best chance to win. **** he scored all of our TDs and set up two of them. I’m going with him the rest of the way regardless of Shapen’s injury status. You don’t take the top QB recruit in our history lightly
Shapen might be brittle, but he's not soft.
Absolutely, wouldn’t call him soft by any means; however, decision making is just bad. Granted most folks may say look at the O Line. While that’s true, KT moves and makes things happen with that same line.
So does Shapen. Somehow that seems to get overlooked in the traditional MSU back up QB infatuation.
Absolutely true, I think Shapen is just so hot and cold … more cold. But I get what your saying.
Any attempt to play Taylor this year in order to win games is silly. You said yourself we don’t have the line to run the Relf Coast. We also don’t have the coach. So why do folks keep wanting us to do it? If Taylor can’t run the Lebby offense, then what are we talking about.
We seem to always want our (offensive) coaches to change, uh, their offense. Why are we hiring these guys then? Let’s just hire some MS high school coach and run the ball.
At this point Kamario just has to show the defense his mobility has to respected. That will open up so much more of Lebbys offense. We're late enough in the season Kamario should be functional when it comes to pre snap reads.
What will we do when we get the wide open WR downfield and he overthrows him by 25 yards?
The same thing we do when Shapen takes a 10 yard sack on 3rd down on the opponent's 35 yd line.
