You really shouldn't have, I feel bad for you...
Throwing the ball to a receiver pass the marker is the QB's decision so I hope you're not trying to change the discussion.
So here's some proof of what I'm saying, hard evidence from the first game (1H only) against Memphis, since you brought it up.
3rd and long, 2 receivers short of the marker
3rd and long, threw well short of the marker
3rd and long (goal, from the 20ish) and here's a receiver short of the goal
In this latest picture, the ball was thrown to a receiver (actually to the defender) in the end zone.
Receivers, in all offenses, purposely run short of the marker. It's drawaing defenders away from other areas of the field where rhey4may be stretching or running someone under the stretch. You have misplaced disgust at Nebraska's receivers, like Keith taught them someting that doesn't happen in every single offense.
Or, you're gonna have misplaced disgust at coach Walters too.
@frostonthegrass since you liked his post, I'm making sure you see the proof of what's been stated instead of misleading information from hf66.
