Defense

Great ones do in college. Not many lesser ones. There is no evidence that you ever coached anything, let alone d-backs. In the NFL, defenders can’t face guard. In college, defenders can put up their hands without defending. Are you saying all UM pass defenders who don’t turn around are not good d-backs? Why don’t you think they. All don’t turn around? I played football for decades and well into my 30’s.
I'm not saying anything about UM defensive backs. I can hardly wait to hear about the semi-pro beer league you played in after college. I bet you are in the HOF.

You said this: “All good college corners/DBs read the receiver, time it and look back as the ball arrives.” The Griz back sometimes look back, but often don’t. You said all good ones do. That means you must think our d-backs are not good.

Where’s your evidence and links that you ever
coached-backs or even played college football? Put up or shut up. My assumption is that you are a fraud.
 
Sure they can, as long as they don't make contact it's totally legal.
It’s called a penalty in virtually all cases. Don’t believe the internet. The rule was modified a bit in 2023, but it still gets called. There is contact on virtually every medium or longer NFL pass. Have you ever seen an NFL just raise his hands, start waiving then, or actually try to block vision of receiver without a penalty being called? I haven’t.

Tommy this year in limited quarters due to blowouts:
71/103 - 857 yards
8 TDs - 0 Int
Pass Eff: 164.5 (1st place in the conference)
We both know that’s a product of a good running game rather than a product of a good passing QB. Take out a wide open 70 yard pass against ISU that even I could have made, and it’s a pretty bad stat line. Stats without context are for nerds.

Tommy has some work to do. Assume Fife has highest passing efficiency.


In his first start as a Montana Grizzly, quarterback Logan Fife caught fire on the inferno at Eastern Washington, led the Grizzlies to over 700 yards of total offense – the second-most in program history – and a 52-49 road win.

In that near-record total, he threw for 364 yards and five touchdowns and added 22 more on the ground for a personal haul of 386 – the most yards of any player in the Big Sky Conference so far this season.

His passing total of 364 yards was also a Big Sky-best, the third-most in the FCS on week five, and a top 15 total nationwide this season. Even more impressive? 309 of them came in the first half alone.

Following that dazzling debut, Fife was named Big Sky Offensive Player of the Week by the league office on Monday – the first conference weekly honor of his career. He was also given an honorable mention for the Stats Perform FCS Offensive Player of the Week”

EWU sucks. We'll see how your QBs do against a great defense, like what the Bobcats have. I can't wait.

Tell us about all the great D’s Mellott has played against. The Cats are going down. Cats can’t beat a good team on Mellott’s passing.

EWU is better than all but one team Cats have played. I agree EWU is weak. They played well against Griz in their rivalry game.

We'll see about that. Fortunately for the Cats, the last two times the griz came to down, Cats literally would not have had to pass the ball once, in either game, to destroy the griz. Simply could not stop the Cats "best in the country" rushing attack. I don't know if the Cats will get 400 yard rushing again, but who knows.
