MU When Missouri runs the ball...

Gravedigger · 10-04-2008, 10:17 PM

Why the hell does Chase Daniel hold it and stand still for like five seconds before the back gets it to try and run it. Seems a bit too indiscreet and basically says "We're running here!" Is it a college thing? Just seems a bit ridiculous to me to hold the ball that long, and its almost annoying to watch.

It's an option; he can pull it and keep it.

Because 90% of the time it's a zone read play. The QB is reading the backside DE. If the DE crashes down, the QB typically keeps and runs around him. If the DE stays home or takes an angle to QB, it's a give. They line up the RB wider than most teams running that, but it gives the QB more time to make that read. Plus...it seems to be working out for them.

or when the players come off the field
no matter how fast they are moving
they move their arms back and forth like they're jogging

I don't give a shit how annoyed you get, as long as it works.

**KcMizzou** · 10-04-2008, 10:26 PM

Just sayin'

Agreed.

Temple was good. D-Wash is better.

At 10 yards a carry, let 'em do whatever the hell they want.

Then don't watch.

7 TDs, 1 FG and no punts.

Who cares if Daniel advertises the play to the defense?

**KcMizzou** · 10-04-2008, 10:51 PM

It's a bit unconventional... but seriously.. .

If you're bitching about Mizzou's offense... you're reaching.

Poor guy. He'll never get drafted. No one will have ever seen him.
