43M Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Good win. Dont really want to be negative following a decent performance, but Clifford's accuracy is so bad. Even passes he completes tend to seem off. On routine short throws, our receivers have to quickly adjust to make up for his inaccuracy. His ball placement is just horrendous aside from the occasional really nice deep pass. I still like him more than Hackenberg. Not that he is better, but he isnt much worse and doesnt get a ton of undeserved praise and excuses made for him like Hack did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Roberson will be alright next year, but right now my hopes are with the commit of Drew Allar to be our next real guy in a few years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danger Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Going to give credit where credit is due. Clifford looked much better tonight aside from one wide throw to the flat. Big issue I had was the offensive line getting any sort of push or space for the backs to move in short yardage situations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. That was the best Clifford ever looked IMO. Jahan Dotson is a beast. Our OLine doesnt help, but Noah Cain is one of the weaker starting RBs Penn State has had in awhile....now watch him tear it up the rest of the season. 😉 My biggest complaint about the game was the officiating. Some of the calls, especially early on were laughably bad. That intentional grounding call early on was just....wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

43M Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 For all of my past criticism of Clifford, he is carrying the offense this year. We have no running game to speak of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Keyvone Lee should be our starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danger Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Cain looks slower than Keyvone, despite being 20 pounds lighter. Is he just not healthy yet from his injury? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
43M Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Two chances from the 1 and you call two predictable runs when our line sucks at short yardage run blocking? Come on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
