Another positive last night


Nov 7, 2021, 12:23 PM

after his primary option was covered, DJ was able to progress through his other reads. I didn’t notice near as much staring down the first option and throwing the ball no matter what. He was able to throw to second and third options, throw the ball away and take off running. He also looked to have a better sense of feeling the defensive pressure coming.

Some of this could have been the quality of opponent but it was encouraging none the less and also seemed to give him a confidence boost.

My take was the line is playing better, not much, but some. On DJ's TD they excelled---and to with his gimpy knee,

That is because he wasn’t having to think about whether or not he should keep the ball, hand the ball off, or pass it all in the same play. They are making him think too much instead of just letting him throw the ball on designed passes or hand the ball off on designed runs.

Not a doubt in my mind we beat State had we not kept trying to force that square peg. Was that Elliott or Dabo, dunno. But glad someone finally had the bulb come on.

It's helping the OL as well. They aren't caught in the middle of an RPO having to pass block until they 100% know it's a running play. By then it's too late anyway.

He did at times.

On other throws it was really obvious he only had one target and he stared it down.

It worked against Louisville but has not worked against better defenses.

DJ improved a little in last nights game but he is far from being able to lead the Tigers to a big win against a quality opponent. The announcers mentioned his weakness on several occasions. There is going to be some very very upset tnetters after the game with the mid state Turkey Buzzards in a few weeks. Wake isn’t going to be a pushover either.

No doubt. There seems the always be plenty of mad ones around this place during games. However, we twice again will be dancing.
