This is the play a&m used to burn Alabama several times. Hopefully it gets figured out soon. He had a good game regardless. Finally started stepping into his throws with the young line playing as a unit in front of him.

When you normally have 2 seconds to throw a pass, you don’t develop the rhythm to check down to your 3rd target

that worked well for the first down in the 4th Q that helped set up the go-ahead FG

I believe Danny was the guy that was the winning QB Saturday. Am I right?

Danny should have the benefit of watching from his couch without 10 guys 6'5" or taller in his face

Then he could be as good as we are

I'm an Etling fan but you're absolutely right, Guice could be a weapon if he'd just look at the checkdown. No
clue why he doesn't but he needs to start.

Our overall passing game needs to grow up fast. We need to throw on 1st down as well as use the middle of the field. Neither of these should be off-limits.

One of our last first downs was a check down to Guice...

If the O line stays like it was Sat or improves further he'll be more comfortable and the checkdowns will become easy.

He probably learnt his lesson Saturday when he finally availed of the opportunity.

would like to see him step UP instead of stepping out when the pocket begins to tighten. he bails too quickly.

I watched
The game again and it happened more than I first thought. I saw 3 times where Danny threw it nowhere and guice chark and Dillon were wide open in flat fg motion. He looks to the TE for a quick pass and won't look to his left. One read and run or heave it deep. He must start scanning the field better

I'm gonna agree with the op. Yes, pass blocking has not been great this year, but was fine the last two games. He has been real fidgety and bailing out of the pocket when there is one. This has cost us. You can't really blame him, but the staff needs to address it. More roll outs if that's what he's doing and more 3 step drops. Throw a screen or two in.

I noted at least one play on Saturday where he was looking right. No one was open so he turned left to check down to Guice. Unfortunately Guice was covered and he then took a sack.

He'll probably have it mastered by the second half of the TAMU game
