Penix & wr speculation

I remember this happening right in front of me and my dad and I groaning that we sure were glad our Heisman candidate QB may have just destroyed his shoulder for an extra yard for a TD in a game they know they will win by at least 20.GrundleStiltzkin said:

Penix seems to have had the same occur with his splits before and after Oregon.
Brownsox never got right of course, even with a month off before the Peach Bowl.

It has to be rep related. There is no way you become this out of sync after playing this much ball together. His reps have to be limited during the week.
If we believe this coaching staff plays four D chess we are going to see a different scheme this week.
We will be getting Jackson back and I firmly believe we will get more Bernard play on Friday.
Huff is going to challenge the shit out of the line this week.theknowledge said:
Does anyone remember fall camp and Penix taking a week off from practice because of “arm fatigue”? Maybe his arm just isn’t right and they are sitting him at practice in hopes that it will liven up for game days. The receivers are running the routes to where Morris or Mack are throwing them and Mikes throwing them where he thinks they should be. Timing is all off. Just a guess.TheHB said:The point Gatorz made is a good one. If his ribs are hurt, why doesn’t the game plan reflect it?

I hadn't look at that since it happened. He takes a hit on his throwing shoulder hard enough to spin a full 180.WoolleyDoog said:

it’s possible he was concussed or close to it when he was sticking his head in the dark. he plays the biggest in the big moments so let’s see what happens

I don't think he's hurt or broken. I think he was just completely relieved that the game was over and they survived to finish the conference season unbeaten. I was freaking the fuck out myself and just didn't have anyone here to throw a cape on me and walk me out of the living room. I'll be honest - I could have used that. I don't even want to think how I would have melted down had they lost that game - so I figure Mike was probably feeling something similar.
I've seen this shit before. Great Husky teams struggling with an over-matched Coog squad that decides not to suck for one game in November and step up their woeful game in an effort to sock big brother in the mouth. It really looked like it was going to happen again and I was going over the coping mechanisms I was going to employ to get over it in my head.
When the kick sailed through, I had to stand there for a minute to make sure it was real.
So I got it when Mike just walked out of there to take a minute to think about what just happened. I trust he'll have himself squared away by the time we face off against the ducks in the biggest game of the season. I'm not sure I can even handle watching the fucking game the way these guys have been squeaking them out. Apparently, they're built for this.

If Grubb doesn’t design a game plan to make his life easier on Friday there will be seppuku on the forum.
Explains why offense went downhill when the fall quarter started -
Hard to be a consistent offense when your go to plays are the highest degree of difficulty throws.
Back-shoulder fades, slot fades, cross field outs. Most NFL QBs wouldn't be asked to make these at the rate we call them. And I think it's partly Mike's fault too, it's what he feels comfortable checking into when they don't feel comfortable running the ball.
It's just not sustainable every game. Gameplan better. -
Must work on making the throws easier and letting the wr’s make plays.Neighbor2972 said:

You can’t make all the people happy all the tim. -
I don’t think they adjust at all. Grubb and co will push down field matter the defensive look. It’s just what they do.
