Spring Practice Dumpster Fire

[BLEED4BLACKSHIRTS]

You really want to open that can of worms? How many turnovers did Taylor have as a freshman, sophomore, junior? Huh? I'm scared of what kind of decision maker he was if Tommy made "a lot". Taylor made a f#*k ton then. But, wait, Taylor was fast and he turned games around - Oh really? Taylor's frosh yr was a 70 QB rating, then it was 60 as a soph, then 70 again as a jr then 45 as a sr. Tommy Armstrong pretty much just had a similar year to T-Magic as a soph, but he was a frosh. Oh and not to mention, Taylor knew he was the #1 guy and it was his team. Tommy didn't know until after the season started.

And the next QB being either Armstrong or Stanton, whoever wins the job, will at least win a conference championship.

So much wrong in one post.

Martinez QB Rating:

2010: 138.8

2011: 126.5 - Coincided with the move to the B1G and still recovering from his injury

2012: 141.6

2013: 140.0

TA was 124.3

Interceptions:

2010: 7 on 196 attempts

2011: 8 on 288 attempts

2012: 12 on 368 attempts

2013: 2 on 110 attempts

TA had 8 INTs on 131 attempts.

Completion percentage:

2010: 59.2

2011: 56.2

2012: 62.0

2013: 62.7

TA had a 52% completion percentage

Taylor was a special player, if he had a decent defense backing him up we easily win the 2012 CCG, and would have had a chance to play for a natty (it was defensive failures that cost us games over the past 4 years and not the offense unless we are talking about games Taylor didn't play in like the loss to Iowa and Mich St).

If Armstrong wins anything it will be because of the much improved defense.

Edited to add completion percentage, I knew I forgot something.

I didn't even read any of that because I was using QBR, not rating. I think that's pretty evident if you look further than what you want to see.

Furthermore, why don't you try posting Taylor's total fumbles as well? And how many drives that f'd up? Might've not been a turnover, but it certainly f'd us numerous times.

You don't find it odd how much support Tommy got from the team as opposed to Taylor?

I didn't say Taylor was bad nor did I say Tommy was better, I just said we will win more games WITH WHOEVER THE NEXT QB is - because team chemistry is pretty damn important and so is leadership.

Oh and there is a fun story about Taylor overriding too many plays and getting us into worse positions.

I don't care if you don't like Taylor, but this is pure speculation. Until players start coming out and saying they didn't like him, then why bring this up? This was beat to death a couple years ago when the line was blocking poorly. Until players come forward and say Taylor wasn't a leader, or a bad influence in the locker room, or a poor teammate, don't bring it up. It's pointless. Why was Martinez even brought up in this forum? He's spent his four years of eligibility, and this thread pertains to next years roster.

see the 2:40 mark

Lewis sounds like an Incognito to me, hopefully he keeps it together is all.

 

[Ulty]

Cornerback Jonathan Rose didn’t practice Wednesday because of what Pelini called “a class issue.”

Sounds like a proletariat/bourgeoisie conflict.

 

[The Dude]

Adam Taylor:

He might be my new favorite player, because we have basically the same beard. You don't know the struggle unless you can't grow hair between your chin and your lower lip.

 

[Landlord]

Zach Hannon has been getting work in at the center position.

Worse throwing motion than Taylor Martinez smh

wouldn't the ball be down by contact????

 

[sd'sker]

Pelini has done an admirable job when he's gotten time, I thought.

it's been six years!!!!

:ahhhhhhhh

oh, nevermind.

 

[Hujan]

Just watched a video of Callahan after the practice...showed a little footage of practice....

The hell is he doing here? Out! Out I say!

This is promising. Pelini has done an admirable job when he's gotten time, I thought.

He's had six years! How much more does he need to get it done?

 

[Count 'Bility]

Jamal Turner took the bulk of his reps at wide receiver on Wednesday. “He’s worked at quarterback, it’s not like that’s something new,” Pelini said. “He’s a wide receiver we could have a package for if we need to.”

LOL.

 

[Creighton Duke]

Steven M. Sipple ‏@HuskerExtraSip 5mLet's just say Alex Lewis' motor runs hot. He's going to play through the whistle, at least.

For some reason, when I first glanced at this, I thought it had something to do with Lewis having a MILF...oops

It won't let me quote the two people - but I dropped this two days ago - whoever posted the Ohio State post game and Walksalone have continued it. I wonder why people don't attack you guys? Interesting, very interesting. In fact, you guys got +1's for apparently trying to start it back up LOL.

Because my whole life isn't spent on here I'm not part of "the crowd", cool I get it. That's fine. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the next chapter of Nebraska football - where we can hopefully win something of significance. Or maybe our next "best QB in the nation" will win an award or a conf. champ or a real bowl game to justify such claims.

Oh and I'm a troll? Ha.

Just stop. Or take it to the woodshed.

Unless........the OTHER Pelini, ya know, the one that plays football, is the one being referenced.

Just stop feeding the troll. The tread just got back on track.

Our last was the all B1G QB his Jr. Year,and football is a team sport. If he had the defense and coaching staffs of the mid 90s, he'd have won more.

And yes, this post was troll worthy.

Now I'm done, moving on....

 

[iowahuskers]

To me it seems like we have a better mentality as a team than the past few years.

On defense we have guys like Mike Rose, and Josh Mitchell talking trash to the offensive players. We have a chance to have a nasty defense this year and in the future because it seems like we have established what we want out of our defense.

The offense has TA who has taken a leadership role. However, I think we need to develop an offensive identity instead of a little of everything, we can be successful in any kind of offense as long as can focus on that type of offense IMO.
