He's throwing some great balls, but he's also benefiting substantially from having the best receiver in K-State's history. Lockett is probably the biggest reason Waters had to play this season, and Snyds, I'm guessing, knew that all along.

I've said it several times before, but Waters is far better than Waters at throwing deep balls. Sams is far better at everything else.

The real problem is that Waters isn't even competent at anything else. Consistency is the most important thing for an offense to have and you just aren't going to consistently get receivers wide open deep down the field.
Title: Re: big play waters
Post by: UCHADBRO on November 23, 2013, 02:49:39 PM
Every one of our losses has a common denominator. In our losses we did not use a balanced QB rotation, whether it be Sams or Waters receiving the majority of the snaps. Just my observation.

But our coaches panic if there's any kind of deficit and think they need to get it all back in one play. It worked against tcu and the first half today, but as we saw, you can't expect those plays to be there reliably.

I thought his intermediate passing was good. I thought what killed him today was a drop by Sexton and multiple drops by TT. Which led to punts. I understand that if you have a good passing QB and no receivers you shouldn't go with a passing QB. Thing is, I believe we do have good receivers, and that TT and Sexton make those catches 99% of the time.

They don't drop those passes if they aren't over their heads and behind their back. Basically, they don't drop those passes if they are thrown by Daniel Sams.

One hit TT in the numbers. Sexton's was an easy grab too. He did have a few high throws, but no one else was around so they should have been caught.

So one out of his 12 incompletions was a good pass. That sounds about right.

Jake didn't singlehandedly lose the game. The defense was awful. Jake going out and basically scoring 14 points for Oklahoma while only scoring 10 points for Kansas State in the second half didn't help matters, though.

You're right. OU's defense adjusted as I expected them to. Jake was decent up until when the offense was pinned on their own three yard line and had "the worst punt of the century." I flipped it to the Brady Bunch after that. Maybe he looked like dog crap after that  :dunno:

If Jake can even move the offense 4 or 5 yards on that drive, the punter has more room and that awful punt probably doesn't happen. He got zero yards, though. Then he got the ball back and promptly threw a pick 6.

If we had somebody on the bench better than Thompson who wouldn't drop as many passes, I would be pissed about the receiver play. That's not the case, though. We are playing our best players at WR. We are not playing our best player at QB, and it's maddening.

waters never looked at him. he's got to see that pre-snap. he's got to. he didn't.

But here's the deal, he reminds me of no other snyder qb, and, that is problematic as snyder is still our coach and that means the qb does not fit our scheme

Can't milk the clock to make up for defensive inefficiencies,  can't extend the play with his legs, can't wil a team to victory, can't can't can't...

But he can loft a ball in the air so the fastest guy on the field can bail him out, I'll give him that

He didn't play well, he had a few nice completions to Lockett and that was it, that doesn't constitute a good game.  If you think he played well, then you're an idiot.  We need a QB who controls the clock and scores TDs, nearly all of our scores with Waters are on big plays.

Honestly water played well today he really did, but he mumped up his fair share as well

This one is on coaching, specifically defense

He didn't play well, he had a few nice completions to Lockett and that was it, that doesn't constitute a good game.  If you think he played well, then you're an idiot.  We need a QB who controls the clock and scores TDs, nearly all of our scores with Waters are on big plays.

I hate long TD passes!  :curse:

Fwiw, I think waters is probably a pretty neat guy in real life

But here's the deal, he reminds me of no other snyder qb, and, that is problematic as snyder is still our coach and that means the qb does not fit our scheme

Can't milk the clock to make up for defensive inefficiencies,  can't extend the play with his legs, can't wil a team to victory, can't can't can't...

But he can loft a ball in the air so the fastest guy on the field can bail him out, I'll give him that

Ever heard of Chad May?

Ok, 1 qb who wasn't that good but was the best ksu had since probably dickey so he was deemed really really good

How bout beasley, bishop, roberson, klein

You said you couldn't think of one. I was just helping you out.

Well, I can agree with that, but that's a lot different than bomb TD passes. No doubt the inability of Waters led offense to sustain drives with any regularity is a problem.

Waters can't score on long drives. Sams moves the chains, but when it's third and long he's mumped.

Out of how many possessions? I take statistical analysis very seriously.

Too much sideline control over the offense. The check down run out the clock checks are bullshit.

I like when we use the #Lifewaters duo well, but that almost seems to have been lightening in a bottle. Sams should get all snaps within either 20 yard line. When we had it on our own 3 yard line today and trotted Waters out there, I knew it'd be a 3 and out. No doubt in my mind. After the first half, I honestly wouldn't have been too upset with Waters coming back in once Sams got it past the 20 yard line, especially if it meant we'd bring Sams back in once we got inside OU's 20 yard line. But who knows, these are just a dinkmentia-less man's thoughts.

Remember when Sams was playing well vs OSU and we put Waters in inside the 5 yard line? That worked out great. There really is no logical rhyme or reason to the way Bill uses his QBs this year.

8 is completely made up.  I think before he got bumped from the rankings this week due to lack of attempts he was converting at something absurd like 95% of third down attempts.  How many of those were 5 yards and beyond is a mystery to me.

If Waters were actually a good QB, how many more of those bombs does he connect on instead of missing?  He had come good throws down the field, but he had just as many poor ones.  Also, he seems to love taking sacks.

This is what I was saying to the guys I sit with at the game.  Most are tucks in their 50's, but they feel the same way.  :cheers:

BY DOWN AND DISTANCE              CMP   ATT   YDS   CMP%   YPA   LNG   TD   INT   SACK   RAT   ATT   YDS   AVG   LNG   TD
3rd & 6+                                          8   13   92   61.5   7.08   16   1   1   1   131.0          6   25   4.2   11   0
3rd (or 4th) down and 9+ yards to go    3   5   35   60.0   7.00   14   1   1   0   144.8          3   20   6.7   11   0
3rd (or 4th) down and 3-8 yards to go    10   13   103   76.9   7.92   16   0   0   1   143.5       9   64   7.1   27   1
3rd (or 4th) down and 1-2 yards to go    0   0   0   0.0   0.00   0   0   0   0   0.0          9   80   8.9   32   1

Roughly 3 & 6+ yards he has had at least 19 attempts, he is roughly making a first down around 60% of the time on third and long.
Holy crap, here is your key Statistics comparison:

While waters is close with his completion rate on 3 & 6+ yards - 22 COmpletions   37attempts    416yards   59.5%
His rushing is 16 Attempts for 0 yards.  Combined for a rough estimate of 40% chance for a first down on third and long with 53 attempts.  So, while Water's has double the attempts, he also has 20% chance less likely of making the first down in comparison with Sams.

He's actually 33% less likely than Sams to get a first down.
