This is my first time watching Oregon play this year...can someone comment on whether this is typically how Mariota plays?

Yup, pretty much.

No. He's playing worse now than usual. Style is similar though.

 

[Clorox]

That 3rd down pass clearly illustrates why Winston > Mariota.

I can't believe anyone thinks Mariotta is going to be better at the next level. But they are out there.

Agreed. It's not even close in terms of skill. TB would be smart to draft Winston. Mariotta is a product of this gimmicky offense.

A gimmick offense that has had success in the NFL?

It's not the same offense.

No offense, but last I checked, the Eagles haven't won a Super Bowl under Kelly and didn't even make the playoffs this year.ETA - I agree Jurb but was replying to Sporthenry and quoted your post by accident.

No, he is a lot more accurate, and tends to use his feet more.

He looks pretty good to me in this game.

I agree with you, accidentally copied your post when replying to Sporthenry.

Cook is literally fumbling this game away for FSU.

 

[Zegras11]

refs fumbled again

 

[Steve Tasker]

RIP Dalvin Cook

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Oooooooooooof

 

[teal]

Cook has to be done for tonight now right?

 

[fantasycurse42]

They could get away with these mistakes against most of their ACC opponents, but not against Oregon. Jameis playing great though, but FSU can no longer stop Oregon on defense.

 

[jurb26]

Wow, how do they manage to get guys open by 10 yds so regularly. It's crazy.

Oregon rolling.

 

[Christo]

Don't need to be very accurate with your WR that open.

 

[Prince Myshkin]

that over bet is looking better and better

 

[Raider Nation]

 

[fantasycurse42]

42 points in the last 15 minutes, defense has disappeared.

 

[Clorox]

It'a over for FSU...they did it to themselves. 2 short FGs, turnover on downs at the1, 2 drive killing fumbles by Cook, missed FG...

And 25 NFL offenses didn't make the playoffs either. And what is gimmicky about it? The read option, which the Seahawks and 49ers have used to success? The quick pace which the Eagles have used to success (top 5 offense with Mark Sanchez half of this year)?

I have no doubt that things would change but I'm not sure what is that gimmicky about their offense.

 

[seahawk 17]

Game over.

Hope not, but probably.

This always cracks me up. Gimmicky, how exactly? The offense is brilliant, all the way around.

 

[The Commish]

it was a run

 

[fantasycurse42]

I'd love to see Oregon steamroll Bama.

I actually kinda like OSU tonight, but I'm feeling pretty confident in this Oregon team against Bama.

 

[tommyGunZ]

Too many Cooks

 

[seahawk 17]

Don't start...

 

[mr roboto]

Might I remind everyone of the last 2 pro-ready FSU first rounders (if we are dogging the Oregon QBs)...

Christian Ponder and EJ Manuel

 

[GOB]

FSU is Cooked.

Nailed it.

 

[Raider Nation]

42 points in the last 15 minutes, defense has disappeared.

That was the plan.

 

[jurb26]

FSU making a ton of mistakes, Oregon seems to have cleaned there's up.

You really think this would work in the NFL? Honest question, not being smart.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

Oregon is just playing at another level this game on offense.

 

[AAABatteries]

Any chance we can still get naked RN walking pics?

Didn't mean to take away from Oregon. Just saying that FSU had made a lot of mistakes and missed several opportunities.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Christian Ponder and EJ Manuel

Neither of those guys won a Heisman trophy or 29 straight games either. Big difference between Winston and those two.

Ponder was the butt of the joke from the opening gun, that was a horrible pick. Manuel is still Incomplete

 

[Raider Nation]

Everything is negotiable.

I think Oregon took care of that in their last 7 minutes of possession.

Oregon defense imposing its will.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

Mariotta is a good qb and this gimmicky offense makes him look great. Mariotta is a system/gimmicky qb.

They've played well but fumbles are mostly on the offensive player IMO.

Seriously, I couldn't give a #### about the NFL. All that matters is how they perform at this level.

Christian Ponder and EJ Manuel

Was anyone ever taking them seriously as top picks? I know I wasn't.

 

[fasteddie_21]

A lot of football left to play. Too early to be calling anything over. But I do question how FSU stops Oregon....

Sorry, not following GB. My point which I didn't articulate well is that I do not think Mariotta is going to be successful in the NFL. He's fine at the college level in this type of offense. I don't think this offense works in the NFL either and disagree with the comparisons to the Eagles, Seahawks, and Niners.

HAWT

 

[jurb26]

FSU blunders continue... Spent 2 TOs already.

 

[culdeus]

Who is getting drafted first between these two? What's the projection looking like? Tons of teams need QB help.
