Message: [QUOTE="Shrmdougluvr, post: 3167602, member: 396"] Dungey's greatest contributions last season were in the redzone. He covered up a ton of inefficiency there (that and Szymt being out of this world good). Briles' offenses were more run first than Dino's and i think he positioned the wide receivers out further, but it seemed he placed an emphasis on big strong QBs that could move. I think accuracy was a secondary consideration. I think Amie fit the bill, but i'm not sure he was truly the dual threat type some seem to be thirsting for. I think Tommy is going to be fine long term. These are my observations of him so far (some admittedly, are more conjecture than others): [LIST] [*]He has elite arm talent. Other than Lawrence, no QB we have played can spin it like he can; [*]He is a good athlete with good straight line speed, but not a lot of wiggle; [*]He has little feel for the game and really struggles with a dirty pocket. This is unfortunate because he almost never has a clean pocket. (Frankly, in college, D lines tend to be way ahead of o lines, and being in long yardage must pass situations only exacerbates things). I remember him not having a great senior year at Don Bosco and part of the excuse/reason was that his team played a very difficult schedule and he was always under duress; [*]Ryan Nassib had terrible pocket presence until his senior year with nearly no ability to buy time within the pocket. This gives me hope Devito can improve; [*]He's very slight. He doesnt have broad shoulders or hips. I dont care how weight room strong he is; he goes down on contact very easily. Hell, he's gone down 3 or 4 times after having been contacted 3-4 yards earlier (like grazed); [*]He plays like a lab rat qb. In other words, all the private coaching is evident, but he's missing the feel/ability to freestyle that all of Syracuse's best qbs have had. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
