Fitz

[msudawg1994]

Could be just rust, but Nick looks god awful throwing the ball. No accuracy or touch on the ball.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Looks just like he has the last 3 years

 

[BELdog]

He’s a triple option quarterback trying to run the spread. He just can’t throw the ball.

Paging KT. Anyone?...

Paging KT. Anyone?...

Nah. Fitz is the guy this year

 

[msudawg1994]

Nah. Fitz is the guy this year

If Fitz continues to play like this, he’ll be sitting on the bench the rest of the year.

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

Yes. That is the same Fitz throwing the ball

 

[CochiseCowbell]

This thread has smoked itself retarded.

 

[Shamoan]

His arm is really strong, but that doesn't mean much when your touch or accuracy are off. That said, I think we are seeing rust.

 

[MarkDallas]

Too early to say that his passing has regressed?

 

[msudawg1994]

This thread has smoked itself retarded.

So you think Fitz looks good? Gotcha.

 

[Clarence Boddicker]

So you think Fitz looks good? Gotcha.

He looks very good for his first game

Seriously STFU

 

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

If Fitz continues to play like this, he’ll be sitting on the bench the rest of the year.

Whatever you say chief

 

[HamSammich]

So you wanna replace the 40% passer against a power 5 team with the QB that was a 41% passer against an FCS school? Man we have some dumbasses on this board

 

[horshack.sixpack]

I want to think he’s rusty but his passing looks the same as it always has. Not good. The whole downfield passing part of the new offense is out the window with Fitz unless he somehow learns something that he hasn’t learned in the past 4 years. He’s a beast as a part of a running attack and that might be enough for this year but it might not...

 

[dawgman42]

Running? He sure does (he's awesome). Passing? Little improvement in 4 years.

 

[BoDawg.sixpack]

First game in a new offense on the road...that's a tough assignment. Let's withhold judgement until after KY.

 

[msudawg1994]

The amount of triggered people on this board is staggering. My post about KT coming in was sarcasm but apparently we have a few people lacking a sense of humor. Obviously, you’re not going to take a team leader out of the starting lineup but it’s evident he needs to improve his passing or we need to hope this is just rust(which was stated in original post)

 

[Seinfeld]

Right, so the real question is... why are we trying to pound a square peg into a round hole when we have receivers that can make plays after the catch and quite possibly one of the best rushing attacks in the SEC? I'm not understanding why we're trying to make Fitz something that he's not and taking one of our team strengths away in the process

 

[MarkDallas]

Fitz talking smack after that play.

 

[msudawg1994]

Overthrown. Again

 

[horshack.sixpack]

I don’t know that Fitzbeing bad makes any of our other options any better this season.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

Accuracy questions getting answered

 

[Shamoan]

Their passing game is about the same. Their running game is why all you KT pumpers look like fools. Nick is a far superior runner and it's not even close. The strides Nick takes per step downfield gobble up yards while KT looks for daylight and dinks his way down. Teams would much rather play KT.

 

[horshack.sixpack]

Biggest irony for me is recalling him coming in for a play or two as a redshirt freshmen and throwing a perfect long ball. My hopes were high!

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

I hope to see that pass play a lot this season

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

But not the following one

I was remembering that too. Sky high hopes for a passer. Other than a crossing route and a couple of swing passes I didn’t see anything so far that was exceptional.

And recievers aren’t winning 1 on 1 battles for crap right now.

 

[olblue.sixpack]

Looks just like he has the last 3 years

You are what your highlight film says you are.

 

[RightOfCenter]

This is not taking up for him because he had a poor passing day, and maybe he can't pass well. But KS was sending pressure and sometimes the offensive line had blown assignments and maybe he didn't quite trust the OL and rushed some throws.
