Legit question, do you have learning disabilities?



No. I'm pretty damn smart. Smart enough to know that completing passes in a college football game isn't easy. It's way harder than on X-Box.
A point you seem to have missed so I wonder which of us might have the learning problem.

when I watch the good offenses, the passing game and schemes they run are setup to where they can plug and chug players. If you want to disagree then let's discuss it. If you want to get butthurt and get all bitchy go buy a tampon

No you're not. You may think you are, but you are not.

Apparently you are the one that is suffering from D-K since you seem to believe you are capable of judging my intelligence from a response on a message board.

If you truly believe this, then tell me why the QBs of these "good college offenses" don't complete 90% of their passes? I mean, since it's so easy and all.

would changing the title to 70% because that is what their completion percentage is close to?

So you disagree that our receivers and routes seemed to be more locked down by other defenses?


This year for sure. They were covered, but our route selection was definitely limited by our QBs arm. That and Dural and Dupre are skinny and have trouble getting off of press.

Last year we had Open WRs you just remember when Mett would thread the needle because it was either awesome or awful.

Hell google and Rueben Randle Highlight and you will see he got open a lot.

It is just too easy to say, why don't we throw to open receivers, well the receivers gotta get open. there aren't any secret routes that just automatically make you open.

If it better supports you assertion, go ahead. Who are these good college offenses that complete 70% of their passes though?

I know it's difficult for you to understand the silliness of your posts, but just stop and think for one second...

You asked another poster how many passes he completed in CFB as a retort to his opinion that some teams seem to pass very easily.

You get that, right? No, I know you don't. You are intellectually stupid.

He wrote that is easy. Apparently he hasn't ever done that, as revealed by his answer to my question, so how could he possibly understand the level of difficulty?

Is it silly for me to ask a person what qualifications does he have to support his assertions? Perhaps it is silly for the person making the comment he can't back up.

Oh you never did tell me what qualifications you have that made you able to judge my intellect from a message board. Care to do it now? Or were you just making a silly statement?

Yes it is silly. Do you call extra points easy? Don't lie now

How many extra points have you kicked in CFB? How could you know they are easy?

I don't know for sure. It would be difficult for me since I tried it a few times and was horrible.
But I sure as Hell wouldn't criticize a player for missing one.

People thinking passing is so easy, until you play a top 5 defense - then it becomes very hard.

What you saw today is typical for soft defenses, not the great ones and the SEC has many great ones. (yeah, yeah, yeah, we do need to pass more - I'm not saying not to, but the argument leveled was it is easy).

He was making an observation. Considering the amount of football available for consumption, it's ridiculous to only accept opinions from those that have thrown a pass in CFB.

In this case, yes, of course. I'm not defending any assertion, what I'm telling you is that your logic is non-existent and your response is one of the dumbest imaginable. It's akin to not being able to judge any circumstance unless you've physically been in the same situation. EX, no one should criticize or have opinions on a politician because they've never been a politician himself. It's a downright idiotic point of view.

See above. Your postings are self-evident of a lack of logic and understanding.

What if I told you David Cutcliffe commented about CFB in general. You'd probably listen, right? I mean he did win coach of the year last year. But under your criteria, you'd scoff because he never even played CFB.

Easily I'm much smarter than you. That's not my point in any way. It's more about how dumb you are.
