KlondikeMike Posted November 19 Share Posted November 19 Go back and watch the Michigan game. Quinn was scrambling all over the field zipping touchdowns off-balance on frozen ropes. His diminished overall performance and loss of mobility since the oblique strain MUST be due to factors other than “mental” or the dreaded “three-high safety look.“ They are sitting on something… Sort of like we all found out at the start of last season that Xavier Worthy had a broken hand the second half of the season two years ago. Perhaps even a different undisclosed injury? Totally different player compared to early in the season. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NothinButDaHorns34 Posted November 19 Share Posted November 19 The 4th and 2 run wouldn’t be a thing with a still injured quinn IMO. Not only did he lower his pads to take on a 6’4 230lb safety but hopped up after to celebrate. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harveycmd Posted November 19 Share Posted November 19 What does it matter? You can't expect to be 100% at this point in the season. Jaxson Dart was limping his way through the Georgia but still scrambled for first downs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uthorn1374 Posted November 19 Share Posted November 19 We need the first-round bye to get everyone back to 100%. Would be nearly a month off before the start of the playoffs for us after the SECCG, which would be huge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators CJ Vogel Posted November 19 Moderators Share Posted November 19 I was surprised to hear Quinn say that on Saturday. I was told it wasn't an issue, but obviously, I don't know what he actually feels. Sure didn't look to be an issue against Florida. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the same BS that Mack and Colt would put out after every bad game Colt had in 2009. You can't go from your best performance of the season to your 2nd or 3rd worst in a week and blame it on a 2 month old injury. Either stop making excuses for your poor play or sit down until you are 100% healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Evans Posted November 19 Share Posted November 19 there is hurt and there is injured. Athletes understand this. Almost everyone is hurt throughout the season. It's a physical games, bumps and bruises and strains are commonplace. Quinn no doubt could still hurt, but he is not injured. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not agreeing that he’s still injured, but if he was the fourth and two run wouldn’t exacerbate his injury like a throwing motion does. If his oblique injury is not 100% healed, then the rotational component and the torque that the throwing motion requires would be much more difficult than lowering your head and pushing forward with your legs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though he had a much better game vs the Gators, I would say he was still struggling with the mechanics of his throwing motion. His stats looked much better because Sark’s scheming and play calling was on point. But if you look back at even some of his TD throws, he’s not rotating his trunk aggressively with a solid base. It seems he’s compensating the necessary trunk rotation you would see with good mechanics (solid base with both feet planted firmly and shoulders square). We’ve seen this all too much with his back foot throws, fading back, open base with feet not aligned to his target. All these things decrease the amount of torque and therefore the strain applied to the affected muscle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
