Dane Key and Barion Brown

Future is bright for those 2. Hope we can keep them and get a good QB to replace Levis next season.
Scangarello has got to work with Will on getting the ball out to these guys along the sidelines more. We seem to wait until their open to throw but they dont need to be, just get it in their direction and let them make plays. The back shoulder or under thrown ball has become the biggest weapon there is with an over 50% chance of a catch or penalty. And with these guys they have the ability to go up and make plays too on well thrown balls.
On these third down they have to emphasize getting the ball out no matter the coverage and let them make plays. Just cant keep taking sacks. If it gets picked 30 yards down field who cares, better and safer than us punting.
I did like Will's comments after the game where he said he's starting to learn to play more free and loose. That means less careful about letting it go. Trust himself and his receiveres. That's not as easy as it sounds either when you have such a short time to get rid of it already, but I think more routes that create one on ones for Key and Brown on the sidelines may help give Will a place to get it out there. If the are just running ins and curls its hard to let it go in a crowd still and I can understand that, so get them isolated somehow and let Will use that as his default. Kind of like, instead of throwing it out to avoid the sacks, throw it up and see if they can make plays or get a call.

They gets tons of pub but the best freshman by far is deone walker. That isn't to take anything away from brown and key, but walker is truly an incredible force. Doing what he's doing as a true freshman is incredible
Well said.
I distinctly remember Dewayne Robertson and Josh Allen playing as frost, and both made some plays. But Deone Walker seems more prominent as a freshman, than those prior D-line forces.
And the Wade twin at Jack/DE. He has had very few snaps in comparison to Walker, but has laid the wood.
No doubt wait until hes had a full yr to build up strength he will be a even greater animal!!
I'm scared of losing them if something isnt done with the offense. You can bet teams will try to poach them away...and as bad as this offense is can you blame them if they listen? Stoops has to figure things out on that side of the ball.
That guy is a beast. He looks like a d lineman you would see at UGA or Bama.
Really sucks college football has become a free agent game
Would love to daydream about these 2 for 2 more years without doubt
