Only the most myopic purple pisser can rationalize a win this week. Stanford rolls 38 to 17.
If u dont know how bad u were after that first half it comes down on u in spades this week, Petersen gets exposed.

If you can't see Washington has been playing down to its competition, I can't help you.

let

I don't know what you're talking about.

I'm not confident at all about this week. TSIO for the Mariners.

2nd favorite poster after PLSS.

The biggest concern for the team has to be the intermediate and deep passing game. In terms of throws, every QB has some stinkers but Miles' WTF passes look worse b/c of his funky delivery. I still think Troy Williams is the most natural QB on the roster but he's green as can be.

Still, Miles is completing 67.6% of his passes this year and has 5 TDs and 0 INTs (he also completed 60.7% of his passes last year) and Price's lack of mobility led to lots of sacks and a smaller playbook.

I would say that the comp % is a little misleading considering how many screens they throw, and also from what Peterman was talking about in his press conference for Miles to hit the correct shoulder/lead the receiver. He's been completing balls but it's a long long ways away from the sort of Kellen Moore accuracy that they need to see.

You are right, but we threw even more screens last year.

Miles is way better than most of this bored gives him credit for.

I don't think his arm is as bad as people are thinking. And he doesn't throw dumb interceptions, which is crucial at his position.

the only big criticism I have of him is that needs to improve his ball security and avoid big hits when he takes off running.

We will find out, but I'm with you. He's played fine except for one half. In that half, the OL wasn't picking up the blitz and he was hesitant making decisions. It's great that he has 0 INT's, but he also seems to be playing a little scared of making a mistake.

He was fucking terrible in the 1st half against GSU, which was worrisome. I'll blame it on fucking sloots and doing blow til 7 am. There was one GSU blitz where they had like 9 dudes at the LOS and Miles looked completely unprepared for their backers blitzing...

His release is also a little slow.

But I think he's better than Price was. I hope Pete subs in Lindquist more. Furd will think Lundy will run, which could lead to a deep bomb to Ross.

Price > current Miles, and it's not even close. Not saying that Miles won't improve, so don't be a twister.

Disagree.

Miles has the ability to run and not get tossed around like a rag doll while doing so

Adds another dimension to the offense that opposing DC's have to account for, which is HUGE.

If Miles was a pure pocket passer, than yeah Price blows him out of the Moontlake water

Disagree.

If he could throw the ball worth a damn his running would be a mute point. I sure as hell hope he improves, because right now he is a liability.

JLAW is impressed.
