    Morris is an issue because apparently he is the best QB we have and our offense is absolutely terrified to throw the ball. You don't have to analyze every throw, the gameplan tells you all you need to know.

    Your point is well taken ... but do you think that asking Morris to make a ton of throws is the best strategy for this team right now?

    If your only goal is to not completely fuck up against Oregon State, then sure I guess. But if that's the best you can do then you aren't going anywhere, and we might as well lock in our 4th place in the north trophy.

    It’s really common sense. This midget noodle isn’t good enough, play the high ceiling guy.

    Common sense is anything but common.

    Christ... Did I miss the BTP apology to Morris thread this weekend?
    What? Someone not taking responsibility for their fucktarded actions? Sounds like the America I know and used to love.

    No. He's just pretending it never happened.
    I’ve been slurping Morris in every thread this week #TeamDMO

    DDY approves of Morris now so BTP is in the clear to like him too.

    I'll start worrying more the first time Morris sacks himself, a la Brownsox.

    Plus he's accurate while rolling out/scrambling.

    In two games, he appears to be our? most composed pocket QB in a long tim.

    He moves around in the pocket well. That’s something that QB’s either have or they don’t. They rarely get markedly better at it.
    I just hope they don’t try to teach him spinning in to defenders Pete did with brownsox

    Morris hasn’t really had a game where he has been under real pressure for the duration, but the early returns that he looks calm in the pocket and makes good decisions on the fly are encouraging albeit with a limited sample size. So far definitely better on those fronts than his two predecessors.
    Huff is proving to be a decent coach or just recruited well. Can’t tell yet, given the OL is fucking massive. Would be nice to see them play a USC or something

    Huff is position coach of the year so far. His unit is balling, and they're not super old/experienced. Really encouraging going forward.
    Yes. a very pleasant surprise. The OL has been very solid. I have been a critic of Huff's ability to get his players on the same page but they look pretty damn good so far. No weak spot across the line.

    Yea I’ve been going back and forth between dooging pretty hard for them and then being like it’s the boovs and Zona you idiot to myself. I guess you could say that about the whole team in general.

    He won’t be, these boys up front are the best we’ve had in a long long time.

    An Oline this big that can also run, pull, and handle speed rushers = good recruiting. It looks like the coaching us catching up too though. One big improvement I've seen, though the red zone struggles obscure it a bit, is that UW has been able to consistently get positive yards against stacked boxes on obvious running downs. We're not seeing many of the plays I've come to expect where the backfield is flooded with the wrong color jerseys and the play is dead before the RB gets the ball. Every play isn't going for 4+ yards, but almost all of them are going forward. Thats a big improvement in itself.
    When I watched the highlights we were doing kind of shitty when we pulled. Ale has a hard time getting there quick enough.
    Glad he is getting some action, was worried he was going to be a bust, but looks like he is developing
