Oh I 100% agree, this is due to our generationally bad OLine, but I do think his vision isn’t very good, he’s been missing a lot of open receivers even when he has time.ducks5ever wrote: Sat Aug 31, 2024 7:39 pmGabriel has played a pretty good game.

Dude… this is sad. Crappy oline play and penalties is the problem. Step away from the keyboard.OregonFan4Life wrote:His decision making and vision is bad.rockthief wrote: Sat Aug 31, 2024 7:35 pm QWhy Gabriel did not run with that huge gap in front of him is crazy making

He doesn't have time to. The lack of down field passing is directly tied to the lack of time to let a play develop. He's getting pressured even on a lot of quick passes.

This. They were trying to stretch the field in the first half but he was taking hits. Second half was short passing game on purpose.StevensTechU wrote:He doesn't have time to.

I wish they would play Jay Harris. He hasn't gotten a single touch this game.
It's difficult to imagine that he's worse than Whittingham.

No it’s not when 95% of the passes are 5 yards downfield.

All the times you’ve seen our backs being hit at or behind the LOS and you’re thinking it’s a RB problem?ducks5ever wrote:I wish they would play Jay Harris. He hasn't gotten a single touch this game.

Lol this, I actually think the RB’s and WR’s are really good but can’t get downfield cause our OLine is getting pushed around.webfoots2001 wrote: Sat Aug 31, 2024 7:54 pmAll the times you’ve seen our backs being hit at or behind the LOS and you’re thinking it’s a RB problem?ducks5ever wrote:I wish they would play Jay Harris.

Whittingham gets under 3ypc
There's obviously something over than RB play involved but it doesn't change that Whittingham isn't very good. At least let Jay harris play.

I wondering if Whittingham is still getting back to his former self? He's gotten tripped up by the turf and loss his balance a few times on runs today.ducks5ever wrote: Sat Aug 31, 2024 7:56 pmJames averages over 6 ypcwebfoots2001 wrote: Sat Aug 31, 2024 7:54 pmAll the times you’ve seen our backs being hit at or behind the LOS and you’re thinking it’s a RB problem?ducks5ever wrote:I wish they would play Jay Harris.

A win is a win?
This is tough, cause I am not feeling good about this season at all. I said 9-3 and I’m questioning that and the game next week against Boise St. What is weird is I think this is a team with national championship caliber talent at almost every position except a below FCS level Oline and LB depth. If Bassa plays the score is 24-7. LB depth is another issue. I’ll give Gabriel another chance but he just threw short easy passes all night to get to a good passing %, anything farther than 10 yards downfield felt iffy.
