I thought a lot of Canada's offense involved quick drops by the QB and quick-hitters to the receivers/tight ends/backs, etc. And with an inexperienced O-Line,this would seem like a great idea, but we haven't seen much of this. What gives?


I agree. Can't remember when it was, but on one of the sustained drives Etling was in for he made quite a few quick underneath throws that worked well. And Brennan looked good at getting the ball out quickly.

I'm just puzzled as to what we've been looking at for 4 games. Either we were fed BS about Canada or something has gone terribly wrong

Etling completed 10 passes.
2 td passes
2 inside shovel passes, which are basically running plays.
2 dump offs on 3rd down well short of the first down, which are basically throwing it away.
Of the other 4 completed passes, 3 of them were good throws with a clean pocket and a nice pickup, and the other was a dump off, which i'm ok with when it's not 3rd down and you do it.

He completed 6 good passes against Syracuse on 15 attempts, was sacked twice, and scrambled 4 times, once for a first down. 21 drop backs, 7 plays that resulted in something positive.
