Adrian Martinez…. American hero and soon to be NFL quarterback

[catastrophe]

martinez looked slow in every aspect of the qb position

He seemed like a pretty good runner

Mods can we change the thread title to reflect his nickname?

AM got hit on a corner blitz. Hard to say whether he could’ve/should’ve held onto it or if he should’ve had better pocket awareness. Probably had better wide receivers at N and our play calling was pretty conservative. Probably a B performance overall considering he wasn’t asked to do much.

He had less than 2 seconds after the snap, that was 100% on Katori. Generally not good when an end is just standing around while someone rushed behind him.

There were times when he held the ball for a REALLY long time.

Yeah, either our receivers weren't getting open or he was making too conservative decisions to avoid interceptions. Either way it is slightly concerning.

The camera angles on tv did nothing for viewers to see what was happening 5 yards down field, so my only assumption was no one was covering check downs unless it was Vaughn.  Other than that all we really saw was line play and the qb going through his progression.

But i think i counted 2 or 3 drops.  The 40+ yard pass to Brooks i thought was a great pass into coverage, but no replay and bad angle, i can’t confirm anything other than it was incomplete. Did Brooks even get his hands on it?

He had open receivers and even hung in the pocket and stepped up a few times but he didn't let it go. The only egregious drop was the early one by Warner. The pass to Brooks did hit his hands but it was very well defended, I don't think Brooks even saw the ball. It was well thrown and we'll defended.

I also didn't think he looked as fast as I thought he would. What was also surprising to me is that he wasn't as elusive as I thought he would be. Will seems to be a better runner. Adrian might also be a bit gun shy from all the injuries.

There were a few runs by AMart that I thought could have easily been a first down where he just floated out of bounds 2 yds short of the marker.  I suppose it could be attributed to the sizable lead, no need to sacrifice your body, or just being a fifth year starter realizing what it takes to get through the entire season.  I would have been more disappointed in a close game, but we'll see.

Yeah, none of this is concerning after a week one game that was over before the offense took it's second snap.

Appreciate MiR's takes on his play, sounds somewhat discouraging but yet encouraging/we'll see next week I suppose (I could only listen so it's impossible to understand open/defended receivers and the types of plays/throws he was making, etc)

Dang, this thread had been pushed back three pages. Disrespectful to Heisman Trophy contender, Adrian Martinez.

He's lucky he made it out of there alive

[john "teach me how to" dougie]

I apologize for mentioning that I thought he floated out of bounds to often.  Save yourself, Adrian. You deserve it.

I’m beginning to think that Adrian Martinez may actually be a legitimate Heisman Trophy candidate. He got a lot of attention as the four year starter at Nebraska and there seems to be a lot of national interest in his career this year.

Can he shoulder these potentially crushing expectations? You beat ONE overrated OU team ...

Of course he can! Idk why you’re being a hater here.
