I don't get giving Waters every third and long opportunity in the 2nd even though Sams was perfect passing, but it worked, so oh well.
I really like Sams, but you have seen him throw down the field this year, correct?
Help me with this, because I feel like I'm losing my mind. Or maybe I am experiencing revisionist history when Sams throws it.
When have we seen him throw it down field? He had two terrible throws in the pocket against OSU. Waters has equally as embarrassing throws.
The INT at the end of the game against Baylor was ill advised considering down and time on the clock, but he was flushed from the pocket and throwing on the run and put a 50/50 ball up to his 6' 5" 240+ TE to make a play on between a DB.
But other than that what have we seen that makes him so terrible that we don't even think about giving him the chance to throw it vertical? Or is it just a combination of well-the-coach's-are-the-ones-at-practice-and-see-him-throw-it-every-day-type situation?
I was at the spring game and I watch him in warm ups, the arm is there to throw 25 yard post routes to TT or TLBL especially if there is no one over the top because the other safety is at the LOS.
