And to give these tards a little perspective. Shapin is ahead of Chambliss in pass yards, completions, comp % (by 5 pts) and overall RTG. He's 5th overall in Pass yards just behind Reed.
That’s all good but who is ahead in winning games?
IDK, maybe the teams w/ a better supporting cast( the other 21 players)? And maybe the ones that haven't let their qb get sacked 27 times?....i'd start there.
So with the "game on the line" do you put on an arm-tackling clinic and giveup a 79 yd punt return?
With the game on the line he made a very nice improvised scramble and shuttle pass to his RB to extend the lead. Shapen played well last night, a heck of a lot better than the dumb dumb taking snaps for Texas. Lebby did nothing to take the pressure off his guys last night and he has taken no responsibility for it. These close losses are on Lebby. Opponents have a say in execution and most of our opponents have personnel advantages. Lebby is failing in the decisions that go beyond Xs and Os. He made enough good play calls to win but he failed to play the clock and mitigate the possible damage from bad situations. Sometimes those things make the difference.
That pretty much sums it up. Inconsistency can be a *****.
He had plenty of time his first pass in OT and missed a wide open WR for the TD. He missed 3 TD’s last week.
It was up to him to manage the clock and he can check into a run every play.
you Can go to G5 and get better game management in the fourth quarter. This broke a 432 game fbs streak of leading by 17 with ten minutes left, everyone of those 432 teams won the game.
ALL of you 17ers are pissed cuz you bet the under and state not to cover. (and Shapen threw zero pix).
Should have never punted to him anyways. Punt it Rugby Style (A$$ over Tea Kettle) or try and coffin kick. Lot of factors played into that Meltdown.
So the supporting cast is good enough to allow him to put up good stats but not good enough to help win games? None of the offense disappearing is on shapen? But the ability to get leads in the first place is all Shapen? It can’t be both.
Booth certainly looked good on that little 2 yard flip pass that he took to the end zone. I can tell you from watching the game in person, Thompson is open damn near every play. He’d have about 5 more touchdowns this year if Shapen was more accurate.
Who threw the ball four feet behind a wide open Thompson on slants twice in crucial moments?
