A QB "going through progressions" is old methodology. Tua doesn't do it.

I think this is true. But not every good or good enough QB is a Tua.

So... they do go through progressions?

If you want to succeed in the NFL, which is the goal of every college QB, you better be able to go through your progressions. Pre-snap read is important but that read is no always right.

They have a primary receiver before the snap. They hit him quick. ONLY if the primary is covered do they go thru progressions.

So, your contention is that, in the "old days", the QB didn't have a set place to start his progressions? He just started looking around, willy nilly?

Dude, what you described is how it's always been done.

Drew Brees says hi

Dwayne Haskins and Tua will be Marcus Mariota and Jamieis Winston in the NFL.

You think the LSU QB goes through progressions when the primary target is open?

It’s almost like Steve hasn’t been an offensive coordinator in 20 years......

This is the dumbest damn thing I've read regarding offense on the rant, and that is pretty bad. You basically say they don't use progressions unless the primary target isn't there. THIS IS THE DEFINITION OF PROGRESSIONS!!!

Burrow just didn't look confident throwing to his primary most of the night and held the ball WAY to long. Against Bama you have 3 seconds if your lucky, and if your primary isn't there you might come to your second progression, but then you're toast if you don't throw it away or have a running lane to scramble.

Burrow's biggest problem against Bama besides the poor protection/blocking was that he lacked confidence to run the ball with authority. He had zone read keeps available and had the chance to tuck and run out of the pocket a few times, but tried to move around and buy time instead. He looked lost, and that's coaching.

I know You’re getting downvoted but I agree that we probably ask our QB to do a lot more than most QBs.

A lot of college football is designed plays, RPOs which is a 1 read play, and passing plays that cut the field in half.

If you’re asking a QB to do what they’re doing on Sunday you’re gonna have issues.
