I'm thinking that this offense will give Mett more and better check down options than last year's did. I also believe like Red that Mett was off by just a tad and with more seasoning, improved routes, better coaching & more confidence Mett will have a great year.
Is he speaking with the Doug Johnson who played at Florida for Spurrier? No wonder why this guy is a moron.
Randy Rosetta wrote this today in the Times Picayune: "There were flashes last season of how well Mettenberger can play, but not consistently and he never shed some glaring bad habits - poor pocket awareness, locking in on receivers, overthrowing open teammates, etc."
So why is this guy writing, if he has a paper route? He should stick to the paper route, maybe hes better at that.
How dare a first-year starter not be perfect! 58% isn't accurate enough to get a job as a paperboy, much less a starting quarterback! Douche.
Mett's 58% completion pct was #11 in the SEC and #73 in the NCAA (Braxton Miller was #78 last year and he's a leading Heisman candidate, but he can run...Denard Robinson was #100 in the NCAA last year and he got drafted as a WR/RB) For comparison to other 1st-year performances Manziel 2012 - 68.0% - #1 SEC, #8 NCAA McCarron 2011 - 66.8% - #1 SEC, #17 NCAA A Murray 2010 - 61.1% - #6 SEC, #49 NCAA - Georgia went 6-7 Here's how they did in their 2nd year: Manziel 2013 - ??? McCarrron 2012 - 67.2% - #3 SEC, #15 NCAA A Murray 2011 - 59.1% - #6 SEC, #73 NCAA - Georgia had 4 losses
As for the TCU QB Casey Pachall who has a 15-2 record at TCU: 1st year 2011 - 66.5% - #18 in NCAA 2nd year 2012 - 66.0% - #25 in NCAA
I didn't realize that Murray's was so low. It's also wierd that only about 1 percentage point separates #6 in the SEC and #11.
Last year, 1 percentage point separated #8 thru #12 in SEC (58% to 59%), Tier 2 was #4 thru 7 (%62 to %65), Tier 1 was #1 thru #3 (%67 to %68)
