ed, you may want to change the title and leave out Trubisky's name. It might get deleted again as a duplicate thread. Then, just edit your original post and say something like....."Let's start w/Mitch Trubisky."
2nd play ... love how he calmly slides left ... very smooth while keeping his eyes downfield ... eventually runs to the right for the first down ... gave the play plenty of time to develop ... very calm feet while "sliding" to his left ...
1:17 - alot to like on that play ... starting with the OL ... lots of time .... went through his progressions ... started on the left sideline and came all the way back to the right sideline .. no happy feet ... once he made up his mind whee he was going .. the ball got out of his hands ... showed he has plenty of arm strength as the ball got their quick and accurately ...
2:17 - 1st time they really brought pressure ... recognized it pre-snap or recognized it immediately after the snap .. got rid of the ball right away and made an OK throw .. reciever made a real nice catch ... nice play .. good recognition .. not a good throw but the timing was off due to the pressure and it was a catchable ball ..
3:42 - pocket collapsed .. couldn't really step in to it and couldn't follow through at all .. zipped it about 18 yards down the middle .. showed arm strength with pressure directly in front of him ..
5:40 - showed the arm to throw to the sideline from the opposite hash .. was short - intermediate throw from the other hash ..
6:40 - curious as to what u saw on that play ...
7:02 - showed his maneuverability and strength .. nice ..
8:02 - impressive maneuvering in the pocket .. manipulated it well and kept his head up .. very nice ..
Last play - bad decision .. should have thrown it away .. i understand the time constraints but on that one u have to live to fight another day ...
Tail of two halves ..
1st half he had all day to throw .. picked them apart .. showed strong, accurate arm with the ability to manipulate the pocket when need be ...
2nd half - they brought alot more pressure .. he manipulated the pocket well and kept his head up .. DIDN'T LOOK TO RUN FIRST .. and he can run .. hes not a stud running but hes well above average ... i love that he didn't automatically take off ... EVER ...
What u got Ed ..
COME ON GUYS JOIN IN PLEASE .. fresh eyes NEVER HURT ..
We can do that one next ... i actually can't wait ..
How long before u feel comfie this thread will stick around so i can see what u saw .. *L* at see what u saw ... don't ask me why just found that funny .. *L* ...
o easy velocity, doesn't have to 'muscle up' to throw with power (e.g. corner route)
o 1:17 was his best throw of the game for me. He reads through his progression start from left to right and uncorks a sideline comeback/backshoulder throw
o showed some athleticism and willingness to use his legs on few occasions 7:02, 8:00, 1020
o missed throws/inaccurate 2:30. 3:20, 4:15, 5:40, 6:45
o made 3 very poor decisions/ 2 were picked off e.g 6:00, 7:30, 1046 end the game
o has a quick release but not your typical throwing motion, doesn't fully extend his arm his throwing motion reminds me a lot of John Beck/Ryan Tannehill
o good ball handling with play action
-------------------------- once i get home im gonna watch it again
6:40 - curious as to what u saw on that play ... Clean pocket, receiver was interfered with, shows the arm talent dude makes that throw look easy...a lil long a thought but again who knows cuz receiver was impeded
--------------------------------------------- I went through the 1st half again/will post 2nd half tomorrow time permitting:
12s (3rd & 4) Clean pocket. Missed open receiver.- Shuffles/drifts left. But improvs and scrambles to get 1st down.+ Avoided contact.-+
25s Play Action. Roll (L). 17yd throw on the run flashes that big arm.+
38s Clean pocket. Goes through progressions, holds FS, throws the seam Off Target. Like the aggression of the throw though.+-
45s Clean pocket. 30yd corner route. On time,on target for TD. Looks like a half field read. Makes throw with ease shows arm strength.+
1:16 Clean pocket. PA w/ plenty of time. Full field progression. Gets to backside comeback w/ tight coverage. 30 yd throw in the air. Wow throw for arm talent.++
1:46 Clean pocket. PA. ~35 yd seam-post. Great throw.+
2:21 (3rd & 10) Pressure. ID in the face. Throws Out route off backfoot. Off Target low. Nice catch from Bug.+-
2:36 Clean pocket. PA. Rips a dig route 18yd in air. On time, on target. TD on yac.+
2:59 (3rd & 9) Late Pressure. Has functional room. Off Target underthrown Preohl forced to wait on ball TD? -
3:43 Muddy Pocket. OL walked back, has to throw with just arm. Goes thru progression gets to 2nd read. Off Target high (caught).+-
4:00 PA. Pump fake. Late pressure. TE seam in stride.+
4:37 Read Option. Good read. Gets down protects himself from contact.+
4:46 (3rd & 3) Clean pocket. Read (L) to (R). Misses Bug on the hitch/stick. Forces to Proehl broken up/dropped int. Bad Decision.-
5:29 Clean pocket /surrounded. On time to Switzer on the double out; just a hair behind him though. ? Accuracy
5:53 Clean pocket /surrounded. Bad Decision. Into double coverage on Go route. PBU Dropped pickle.-
6:09 Quick pressure. Free rusher. Is reading (R). Evades +. Don’t know where the pre-snap was, IF it was choice he would have been better off starting (L) had Switzer?slot (L) in cut. Meets more pressure on the scramble. Throws off backfoot. Off Target. Bad Decision. -
6:17 (3 & 10) Initial clean pocket. Pressure flashes. Reading (L) I can’t see what’s happening on the read side. Bug comes open on a drag (R) to (L) when the pressure comes. Tries to scramble out, sack. -.5 ? Didn't make a bad play worse.
:52 Hikes the ball on opp 20 yd line...drops back 5 yds and throws it...hits WR i think 6 yds deep in endzone...nice timing throw and good ball placement. WR was wide open, but I thought that play looked well polished, and well executed very well.
I bet you're wondering the samething I did, why O' why didn't I take the...blue pill
Micah 6:8; He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.
John 14:19 Jesus said: Because I live, you also will live.
Man I love this dudes throwing motion. QUICK release. No wind up. He makes Griffin look silly.
He nails those Outs and Seam Routes. Top notch pocket presence.
Experience is that one damn thing lacking.
I'm going to make an observation here. Watching what he did against FSU. And I saw the entire game. Plus the above footage. There was a name that came to my mind when he was gunning those Seams and those middle TD passes from the Red Zone. I thought to myself, man this dude's gonna be REALLY good in a year or two. I thought the SAME thing when I saw 2 QBs in the past. Those names are:
Luck & Rivers.
If this kid is there with the Philly pick, I'm TAKING him and not looking back. Damn the experience factor. This kid is a POCKET Passer with exceptional mobility.
candy and kwhip, did you see anything from the current game we are discussing that you want to comment on or highlight? any plays that display attributes you like?
I liked what I saw against Duke for the most part ...
- went through his progressions ... - can make all the throws ... above average arm .. - moved well in the pocket, looked to pass 1st ... very atheletic - accurate for the most part ... he did miss some throws ...
He's far from perfect .. so far .. he's intriguing ...
If u got any questions ed .... please ask ... if not, its on to the next game ...
Hey, i'm gonna scale back from posting game notes for each play and just give a recap w/ time stamps.
Doesn't appear to be as much interest as I thought.
What game next? Georgia? (btw the full Georgia game, not the cut-up, is on noonkick)
These are the games cut-ups available thru draftbreakdown/youtube vs Pittsburgh vs Florida State vs Virginia Tech vs Miami vs Virginia vs Duke vs NC State
2015 vs Wake Forest, Duke, & Miami
-------------------------------------------- What game/s would you suggest for Kizer?
Might not be worth planning for 3 games of each w/ this little interest.
U post your times .... i'll post my thoughts with times and we'll go from there ... if no one else wants to play .. nuttin we can do about that .... i'll be learning just from watching the film and stating my thoughts ...
I've met him in person and he has a lousy personality. I really hope Kizer never gets even close to being drafted by us.
You can't fix stupid but you can destroy ignorance. When you destroy ignorance you remove the justifications for evil. If you want to destroy evil then educate our people. Hate is a tool of the stupid to deal with what they can't understand.
I saw them all ... he had bad 2nd half's in most games ... witch one was the worst? ... huh ... there's a few to choose from ...
Duke i guess ... michigan state ... stanford ... usc ... lots of bad ones .. he stunk in the 2nd half of the Miami game also .. but he did lead a TD drive on the last series to pull it out ... virginia tech ....
