Brosmer Shows Gophers Short Passing Attack - The U is incorporating more short passing routes in fall camp.

[Willwin40]

I’m getting kind of tired of so many people on this board thinking they’re experts when they’re not!

 

[MonikerSchmoniker45]

Is DT a future NFL draft pick?

I think so, but really doesn't matter...The point is you get your best player the ball and I remember hearing DT was a good pass catcher in high school.

 

[Willwin40]

I think it matters to DT!

I hope that Brosmer can successfully lead this attack but it gives pause that the same classless idiots on this board that are hyping Brosmer and making fun of AK are same idiots that bought into AK as the future last year at this time.

Consider me discouraged. This is the kind of stuff they said before game 1 last year which resulted in us throwing 44 times for 196 yards and we all know how that went.

PJ is not the type of coach that can successfully run a short passing offense. This is a BAD strategy for him. It works when you are committed to it with an air raid offense or a coach who isn’t super conservative.

Either Darius Taylor will take over and mask our passing deficiencies or will have an inefficient offense that can’t convert in the redzone and struggles to make big plays.

A short passing game means many opportunities to drop the ball. The Gophers have some "good potential" and "intriguing" receivers. Can they catch the ball?


What do we know about transfer portal receiver 6' 3" Tyler Williams? A high potential guy but we don't know for certain. Can he keep the chains moving? Looks "intriguing." We've heard that before.

Returning receiver Daniel Jackson was 2nd team All Big Ten, one of the best receivers around. He will benefit from the accurate Brosmer.

He used to be a WR

Ryan Burns said on the GGR podcast that he thinks Williams needs another year before he makes an impact on this team. He was higher on Christian Driver and Nuke Hayes. But again, we'll have to see

Very different situations. Everything about AK was related to the hope that he would be good. Brosmer has proven he is a good QB all be it at a lower level.

WRs are weird. You'll see guys in practice and think you know the pecking order.

Year starts and games go on and that order gets turned around sometimes.

on PJ, the question is whether he will stay with a passing attack if it doesn't click immediately. I caught part of an interview he did with the BTN crew at media days, and the passing game came up.

in short, Fleck - as I heard it - said that he trusted the running game to work, and he couldn't always trust the passing game to work, so when push goes to shove, he stuck to what he could trust.

ergo, the passing game needs to be good enough for Fleck to trust it.

I can remember Sid Hartman talking about Bill Walsh's offense for the 49'ers. Sid got the phrase "quick rhythm passes" in his head, and every time the West Coast Offense came up, Sid would go back to "quick rhythm passes." so that is what I want from the Gopher offense.

I mean, if I want to run a 2-3 zone defense in basketball, but I don't trust it and I do trust my man to man defense... Pretty easy decision, even if the zone does provide its benefits

Yup.

I remember Kirk Ciarrocca saying "I don't call that play unless they show me they can do it."

I'm sure most coaches are like that.

Yeah it would be great to have more passing, but you call a bunch of low % plays, you get beat ... that's just how it is. It's not all video games where if you call a run or pass they players are magically equally competent in every play...
