he’s looking really good

Impressive stats and recruiting pedigree.

5*

Some pretty good throws so far

It doesn’t matter. Being a NFL head coach is one of the most lucrative positions in the entire sport. There are only 32 of them and they are all premium jobs that are an upgrade over any college job.

It was a textbook toss on the handoff from Quinn. Textbook.

Any coach taking the Giants, Jets, Browns or Bengals jobs are definitely desperate and pretty much destined to fail.

No matter how you perceive college football coaching in the NFL is a promotion and better job. Will he be successful, I don’t know. But being a NFL coach is considered a massive promotion.

Having Devon Achane as your RB definitely helps.. 48 Yard TD run by Achane and the dolphins tie it up vs Cincinnati 7-7

Nice throw to Jaylen Waddle for a first down

LFG QUINN!!!!!!!!!!!

Then he had them against A&M. Because again, 3 of his top 10 worst throws all year were in that game. Maybe 3 of the 5 worst. Steve Sax, Chuck Knoblauch, Rick Ankiel. Those were the most known in baseball. Basically ended their careers as they were. “The "yips" are a sudden, involuntary loss of fine motor skills in sports, causing an athlete to mess up routine actions, often due to extreme performance anxiety or neurological issues, manifesting as twitches or loss of concentration, common in golf (putting) and baseball (throwing) but seen in many sports. It's a psychological and physiological phenomenon where the brain-muscle connection gets disrupted, leading to poor performance under pressure, sometimes linked to overuse or stress.” Per our friend AI. When Arch underthrows his first throw of the season, with pressure in his face no less, then hits his second on the money. I’d never say the first was a yip. The misses on the short crossers to Wingo at Ohio State were part poor throw based on finding the passing lane, part pressure. The first one he threw a nice ball to Parker on the very next play. One underthrown ball to Wingo versus SJSU when his adjusted completion percentage is near 80% is not really a yip. Golf is a completely different game. What we saw from Arch was called quarterbacking. But, yeah, I suppose we have different definitions and the connotation of the term is more extreme than he made some poor throws.

First drive of Quinn’s career 1/1 passing for 22 yards. Threw a nice block on an end around but the dolphins end up punting.

Risky throw for a first down . Gain of 22.

First drive of his career underway.

Just trying to get an extension imo... Leaving an incredibly good situation to go to New York?

Freeman to giants is picking up steam. Gimmie their OL and Moore

Punter Jack Bouwmeester is out of eligibility

I’m sure he was impressed by aggy’s offensive firepower. I mean, 31 points in a playoff game! Oh wait, that was James Madison.

Sure, limited experience will always lead to some hesitation. And that’s what good to great defenses like Ohio State will do to you. Even veteran QBs. It’s possible that a Caleb Downs can make that more difficult. Indiana with a very experienced QB that ran up lots of points against a number of teams struggled to finish drives and get points against OSU. It was not because guys were never open. And they had 12 games of tape whereas we went in blind. It’s speculative on my part, but there are reasons to believe Arch knows the game, how to read a defense, etc. You can use that against a guy. Give him the read that dictates where you want him to go with ball, but that false read was never the actual defense. And their pass rush is good enough, consistent enough so that it’s harder to go pre-snap read to post -snap because you don’t have tons of time for the post snap element. I am not a big mechanics guy. It’s not that I don’t understand the value of repeatable movements. But so many big plays are off schedule that’s it’s as much instinctive as anything. It’s difficult to get those mechanics learned because practice is almost always controlled. The more reps you get in live fire the better you potentially get instinctively and mechanically because you know what works and what doesn’t. As an individual player rather than what the coaching book says. i am a big fan of what he brings to the table. It’s still a team game. For his game, I just want him to progress. There will always be chances to pick apart plays here or there. Just make enough so that the end result is in our favor.

Tiger Woods has had them, pitchers/catchers have had them, even Bryce Young had them this year and had to be benched. Unless we have different definitions of what the Yips are, think it's safe to say Archie had them at the start of the year. We witnessed him throw balls into the dirt on basic crossing routes, not to mention the wild overthrows on screens.
