Well you can tell I'm bored this off-season. After just completing my CMC write-up, I went straight to watching five of Curtis Samuel's games in full. 

For those of you interested, I made a 40+ GIF twitter thread on Curtis Samuel spanning five regular college season games. Each contains clips and thoughts that meet the twitter text limit. 

I made a Curtis Samuel analysis thread a while back (though not as detailed as it could be) so I'll probably hold off on that unless you guys really want me to try and make a whole new one. 

Anyhow, here's the beginning of said twitter thread:

For those of you who are unfamiliar with how this works, you click the twitter link and look at the reply chain that comes along with it. Basically, click anywhere on that white box, go to that new page that pops up, and scroll up and down as you please.

Here's some nice samples of what I saw:

 

 

Just to let you know so you can look at something else during this long and tedious off-season.

Just three weeks until training camp...

Really what I get out of Samuel is that he's a bit different from Ginn in how he burns defenses.

When Samuel plays from the slot and gets in open space down the middle, that's where he kills defenses the most. He can still burn them going vertical, but he's at his best in space.

      I am too. Frank became completely disinterested in the HC job after the draft.

      Panther fans sound off on Bryce

      down 24 and we get our first possession in the 3rd and what happens?  run TE checkdown TE checkdown run run run RB checkdown TE checkdown run TE checkdown incomplete TE checkdown run now on the 4 yard line- Renfrow TD and POOF!  3rd quarter is over.  That's not a team even trying to get back into the game in reality.  That's just the Panthers taking freebies to make it look respectable in the end and guess what? Bryce gets to pad on 6/7 to his stat line in exchange for making the 3rd quarter disappear.  Not sure the hyper focus on the depth of the corners.  Cardinals were going to simply drop and allow the easy stuff underneath.  Which they did.  Did they play a random short yardage play a little different? Sure.  That doesn't' mean they weren't just letting the Panthers overall eat clock to bring the game to an end.  The Cards strategy was fine on D.  You just don't generally see teams implement it as early as they did but they were up pretty big.  It's the other units for the Cards that fugged the plan up.  again, it's 3 drives,  the ONE in the 3rd quarter and only drive of the entire quarter and the 2 to open the 4th.  Cardinals gave Bryce stuff in exchange for clock  (and the result was slow long drives eating the clock).  The rest of the game? They didn't.  The rest of the game outside of those 3 drives the Cards weren't in garbage allowance mode and Bryce stunk

      But a serious question is, does he not see a guy come open because he misses seeing them on the field, which happens to every QB, or, is his vision blocked by the wide bodies in front of him instead of the helmets other QBs experience? For instance missing a wide open Chuba. Did he not see him or could he literally not see him? I tend to think the latter is a far bigger problem than we're being led to believe it is.
