Corners and Safeties are not the first line of defense on running plays. You could argue that Corners are the fourth line of defense on a scramble. The fact that a corner brought down Cam at full speed is more a testament to the corner and a poor play by the front 7.

I am not talknig about just any CB. PP should of made that play. He is good enough and big enough.......

point was PP took himself out the defensives complete inability to contain Cam. He was part of the reason Cam didn't have to pass.....not as big of a role as others but the main point was how he tried imply his teammates didn't give him a chance to play.

My point was more of what a lame statement it was excluding himself from the beatdown ont he ground. While again not as important of a role as some of his teammates.....lame for him to take himself out of the mix.

Even if what pp said was true, I agree he did kinda throw his teammates under the bus on that one

and I stated his role in stopping Cam on the ground isn't the same as his teamates......but he and his 3rd line of defense flopped as well.

The point was not that PP should of stopped Cam's rushing. Point was only I thought it was lame he took himself out of the equation.....regardless of how small of a role he had.

No biggie. Just didn't like the way he worded what he said.

Yeah, but other than Alabama, LSU was the closest team to beating Auburn..and the game was at Auburn. Game was tied at 17 in the fourth quarter and a great qb made a great play.

LSU could not move the ball on offense in that game. Auburn stone-walled them. One of their touchdowns was a half-back pass, if memory serves.

And Auburn took a knee inside LSU's 5-yard line to run out the clock.

Game wasn't as close as you like to make it out to be.

Running away from PP isn't exactly crusing right past his.

Exactly. He's meant to be a CB - Newton shouldn't blow past him like he's not there. He took a horrible angle and then showed a lack of speed.

For a DB (cos he was looked at as a S too) that's terrifying.

Tied in the fourth isn't a close game?

And the half-back pass was a terrible throw and Reuban Randle out jumped a corner..so it wasn't like some fluke play that tricked Auburn.

LSU also had a 14 and 13 yard drives, one resulting in a rushing touchdown. Auburn only had one drive more than 9. Auburn won the game, thier offense was quick strike and they had the Heisman winner, but to act like it wasn't even close is crazy.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.

      No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
