    Our O line fans point out that Penix doesn't get sacked which is true. He's smart and he gets the ball out fast. The Beavers put a lot of pressure on him and some of those plays he doesn't get sacked on become a pick 6

    Penix is underrated because we don't think we can have nice things. But some of those third down conversions were as good as it gets. As was the 92 yard clincher

    He is the hope. But you know what we? say about quarterbacks as the savior

    If Penix has a chink in the armor besides not being a threat on the ground, it's that he'll throw off his back foot when he gets pressure. He's hard to sack and Oregon doesn't have a lot of sacks, but Oregon's D line gets in there and gets close and Penix likes a clean pocket. I'd rush the fuck out of him and tell my D backfield we're? going to give up some but we're looking to rattle the young fella.
    That back foot throw works because of his arm and allows his OL to keep the pocket mostly clean. He doesn’t need to step into throws for the most part.

    Time him from snap to release. You really can’t get to him because he’s already decided where he’s going with the ball.

    I’m more for staying home and dropping your LB’s into his crossing patterns. Keep everything in front of you and hope for a mistake. Hopefully DJ Johnson is available.

    That is smarter imo. UW's offense is pretty good at making teams pay for blitzing. OSU made him nervous by lining up to blitz a lot, but dropping out of it caused more problems than pressure did. The LBs put 7 on the board for them.

    41-27 Oregon

    Penix makes the big mistake early in the 4th Q in an otherwise competitive game.

    You don’t really believe that score but if OSU had a QB who could complete a forward pass, it keeps their running game in play and they win Friday. Oh and if JS took the points early.

    I do like Franklin on Perryman.

    I have no statistical or other backup for this other than observation ... his back foot throws are the throws that are off target. If he steps into his throws, they're usually on the money. Penix has a good arm, but he's like any other QB ... stepping into his throws helps his accuracy. IDK. I'd make the pocket as uncomfortable as possible rather than trying to handle it on the back end. We've seen what he can do with time and has at least 3 dudes who will get open.

    Oregon always loses one right… about… now.

    Totally different attitude at head coach. This guy knows how to win.
