What about rolling Meier out?

[kougar24]

As I watched the Miami/FSU game, one thought kept occurring to my buddy and I: roll our QB out...get him away from the chaos that the O-line allows to ensue.

Why wouldn't we roll him out? He's got decent legs too...he could at least pick up a few yards on a covered play.

[opcat]

Yes and some cutblocking.  Take them down.

What about eye-gouging the D-Line?

[fatty fat fat]

Rolling a QB out requires a Big-time Arm.

Dyl doesn't have.

What about rolling out Josh Freeman?

[kougar24]

Fatty, with our O-line, our QB (whichever it is) will likely be throwing on the run a lot anyway. Might as well give him some initial space to buy time before he has to chuck it away.

Let me phrase this another way: is there a valid reason to NOT roll him out?

[sonofdaxjones]

The Valid Reason is the "jamming a square peg into a round hole" concept of implementing a new offense.

[kougar24]

Are you saying you can't roll out in the WCO?

[AzCat]

No he's saying the Meier is insufficiently athletic to properly execute a WCO-style offense.

[sonofdaxjones]

I guess the bigger question is ... do we really know what DM can do anymore??

Or ... was he so locked down by the coaching staff in this last game he could do much of anything.??

I am also trying to understand why the WCO seemingly means no more QB running game??

Did KSU run the shotgun 1 time Saturday night ... I have only seen bits and pieces of the video, so I don't know for sure.

I'm sure James Franklin was right there on the sideline saying, "OK Dylan go out there and loft a pass gently into double coverage late over the middle.  And whatever you do keep your eye on the receiver from the snap all the way through until the play ends."  Meier is borderline physically incapable of playing QB for a I-A program.  Oh &*$@!, our starting QB is a cripple.

That is simply wrong.  He threw some bullets on Saturday night.  I was surprised that Jordy caught the pass for his 30 yd gain because Meier threw it so hard.

[kougar24]

I'm not buying the "Meier physically can't throw on the run" argument just yet.

Roll the f*cker out. Can't be any worse than last Saturday.

[fatty fat fat]

Roberson was PERFECT for rolling out.

[AzCat]

Yes it can, you'll see in a couple of weeks.   

[mjrod]

Roberson was PERFECT for rolling out.

Roberson was more physically gifted than Meier.

In fact, when it comes to being physically gifted, Bishop and Roberson were miles ahead of the next qb.

[kougar24]

Roberson was perfect for lots of things.

We don't have Roberson.

We don't have Roberson.

crap you are right

[Fedor]

I'm pretty sure he rolled out on the two point conversion.

[kougar24]

I'm pretty sure he rolled out on the two point conversion.

And by God, what was the result of the play?

[ds43fan]

Roberson was PERFECT for rolling out.

the memories

[GoldbrickGangBoss]

Just let Scary figure out the Smart thing to do.

[Fedor]

I'm pretty sure he rolled out on the two point conversion.

And by God, what was the result of the play?

A three yard completion.  I see what you mean, string a few of those together and you end up with 4th and 1.

[ds43fan]

RUN LEON PATTON GET TOUCHDOWN its that easy

[opcat]

A good question for the media to ask Prince is if Meier is allowed to scramble freely.

Haven't gotten an answer on that.

[Andy]

ssshhhhhh   secret weapon

[kougar24]

I'm pretty sure he rolled out on the two point conversion.

You can't possibly be that stupid.

Well, 3x3 does equal 9.  But I'm not here to argue the mind blowing mysteries of basic math with you.

I was under the impression that this board was where all the witty, flippant, sarcastic cool kids posted.  Maybe not.

Well yes, we do.  But so do fatty and Kougar.
