Levi's accuracy
Posted: Sat Oct 31, 2020 9:05 am
This season will come down to his accuracy. We run the ball well and there are receivers open. He needs to be able to make those 3rd down throws.
Gentry did make a tough catch. It wasn't a big gain, but a tough catch nonetheless.Pokes fan 24-7 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 31, 2020 9:51 am Hopefully his accuracy improves because he has a cannon. We also really need a receiver to step up, I don’t recall anybody making a tough catch to help him out yet.
Sounds like what NFL pundits said all the time about JA, which has turned out to be BS for the most part. And its already evident that Levi has a way better deep ball than Josh had at this point.ragtimejoe1 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 05, 2020 8:55 pm To be fair to Vigen, you either are or are not accurate. We don't have an accurate qb.
Vigen does not develop QBs though; that is true.
We have good athletes at QB.
You are correct to say that it's BS when applied to JA... But it is applicable to literally every other qb analyzed. Therr has been a ton of ink describing Allen with the "unicorn" moniker because of this.'PokeForLife wrote: ↑Fri Nov 06, 2020 7:26 amSounds like what NFL pundits said all the time about JA, which has turned out to be BS for the most part.

I guess that I'm in the minority in saying that I think Levi is a fairly good passer. There is a lot to say about the team not being ready to play, and I think that Levi's first quarter falls into that bucket rather than him being a bad qb.
This is sooo true...the path to victory and success this season..(and frankly mosty seasons at WYO) is to play cleaner, more disciplined football than the opponent. I actually believe last nights game was an outlier for Bohl...his teams here have largely minimized boneheadedness. I don't think we will be over-coming sloppy football with talent anytime soon.bladerunnr wrote: ↑Fri Nov 06, 2020 8:54 am While it's true that Levi threw some stray passes, please remind me when he had a clean pocket to throw from. Our pass blocking is horrendous. Their qb had all day to throw. Levi had an unblocked defender coming at him all night. Just remember, he threw for over 300 yards. Our vaunted running game had 48 rushes for a puny average of 3.0 yards per carry. We were outplayed on both lines of scrimmage. And by the way, they had a receiver who was far faster than any player on our team. So don't tell me how talented we are. We have average talent and if we lose the turnover battle, we will lose.
I agree with you.'PokeForLife wrote: ↑Fri Nov 06, 2020 7:26 amSounds like what NFL pundits said all the time about JA, which has turned out to be BS for the most part.

Josh improved completion percentage through the first part of the season. He's struggled lately with throws reminiscent of his first years. Josh is a great competitor, leader, and football player. Josh cam make incredible throws and does throw some accurate passes. I'd take him on my team for sure but I wouldn't label him accurate. Even if he becomes accurate consistently, he is the exception.'PokeForLife wrote: ↑Fri Nov 06, 2020 7:26 amSounds like what NFL pundits said all the time about JA, which has turned out to be BS for the most part.

Josh Allen, after spending a couple seasons with ACTUAL coaching, would beg to differ..... Players can increase their accuracyragtimejoe1 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 05, 2020 8:55 pm To be fair to Vigen, you either are or are not accurate. We don't have an accurate qb.
