Haywarduck Moderator No. 2 Share Posted January 15, 2022 It is interesting we used to have some pretty good TE who seldom caught balls, but were successful in the NFL, Dontae Rosario is probably the best example. Under Mario we seem to have had a whole passing game which didn't allow the talent to showcase itself, from Justin to AB, to the recent talent at WR. I think I was the first to speculate AB may have a career in the NFL and wouldn't that be interesting! Was Mario's mantra, just get the yardage, and don't throw unless you have too? I can agree AB didn't look like an NFL talent while at Oregon. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He cannot see the entire field, does not go through progressions and panics under pressure. Very poor pocket presence and got sacked too often when he should not have. I do not see it... 3 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not going to make you eat that hat, but some didn't think Justin was all that good after a few years with Mario. I do think he has met his limits, but strangers things have happened. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OhioDuck No. 8 Share Posted January 16, 2022 AB showed flashes of having the potential to be very good. Problem is he was what, a 6th year senior. It was time for that potential to be realized. ironically he often looked best when the game got in panic mode. It is as if he was better when the game plan and the game management (Mario's offensive philosophy) went out the window for game circumstances. Then he just relaxed and let it fly. He was better then. I don't know what that means. Is FishDuck right that he doesn't see the field, doesn't make reads and panics in the pocket. Yes. Most of the time watching him was just more frustrating than I could stand. Then suddenly out of nowhere, he looked great. It was confusing. But I'm confused a lot these days. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the NFL, players are chosen on their potential. Now of course McShaym didn't see it in Justin, but the Chargers did. I don't think we were confused by AB, he was completely inconsistent. Why could he make some incredible throws down the field, and so often throw wildly to the RB in the flat? After 6 years his mechanics needed Meineke.

EzDucksIt No. 12 Share Posted January 16, 2022 He reminds me of Johnny Football, except that when you see him throw the 50/50 ball it usually ended up in the hands of our opponents. Manziel ran until he could fling it to one of many great receivers. AB good luck where ever you go in life. Keep your head up high but when you finally get pulled from the game, make a life for yourself. Thanks for what you did bring to the table, here , at Oregon. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
