Driskel changes how he throws the deep ball (link fixed)

Good job by Roper fixing a major deficiency in Qb's arsenal.

Link didn't work for me, but maybe just me. If Roper is working with Driskel on his mechanics then that is always a good thing. I think this is the first time in Driskel's career he actually has talent at the skill positions that will allow him to throw deep.

What is this 'throw' and 'deep ball' that you write about?

 

[NavetG8r]

Hopefully it translates on the field. Would love to see some bombs to keep the defense from stacking the box every play.

He's going to complete it now?

Well, this is (hopefully was) another big problem for Driskel. So many on here bragged about him throwing "lasers" without knowing that was piss poor form most of the time. Here's hoping he can do it in the regular season some. I hope it doesn't make some on here claim he has a weak arm if he puts some air under it.

He's completed several in practice.

I heard we're undefeated in practice so far.

too little air... too much air... just enough air. Here's to Driskel figuring out air with touch. Go Gators. ;)

F'n solid!

What a novel discovery.

 

[CaribGator]

If Roper can get him to stop locking on the receiver, and waiting until the receiver is open before he throws it, then Driskel should have more completions too.

 

[Ray Finkle]

In bounds would be a great start. It always killed me that 90% of his deep balls would lead tge receiver OB. Lack of confidence I would assume.

QB Coach is nice to have.

 

[MJMGator]

It does sound like he's getting much better coaching this year. He needs it and I'm sure he's happy to get it.

 

[Gator Fever]

Wasn't Chris Leak his de facto QB coach in fall camp last season ?

Scared to death he's going to have a good season, aren't you?
