Geno geno geno
Looking forward to this game.
We should all watch this ... The comments to follow should be very interesting. Sure its just one game, but he knows whats at stake. His performance today will reveal a lot about his ability to perform when it really counts. Thats what we need to see.
Agreed
this is an ideal game for CHIEFS fans to watch. geno smith vs ryan nassib. both highly draftable QBs. i want to get a good look at them both.
Hope everyone tunes in to see Geno!
I'll be watching both qbs today. I know nothing about the Nassib kid but some here like him , so if he's a possible draft pick i'd like to see what we may be getting.
Geno Geno Geno!
Great job on that play fake of going through his reads FROM UNDER CENTER.
Gonna be tough to gauge ability in this weather.
Nassib looks like Phillip Rivers with a better throwing motion. Bodies look very similar.
nassib looks good so far. this my first time watching him and he looks like a good prospect, think his footwork needs a little work and he needs to not throw 90mph fastballs at 10 yards but i like that he's accurate and is decisive in his reads and throws.
geno's made 1 decent throw.
rivers has a very akward release and lets the ball come off his hand he doesn't drive it.
I like nassib's release and arm motion it is not a wind up and not unnecessary at all it's damn near perfect. his footwork is good to just needs a little work in his bounce and opening up his stance when he first catches the snap, although under center will eliminate alot of that.
tebow drops the ball down to his hip, nassib brings his elbow back and raises the ball and drives on it. I'm not saying it's a quick release but his motion is damn good and he gets crazy amount of velocity on it, which a quick release doesn't do.
Seriously keep watching, he brings the ball down to his hip too...
Or watch this in the meantime. Ryan Nassib vs Louisville 2012 - YouTube
The 0:35 second mark is a good example (in slow-mo too). The 0:44 second mark is another good example.
watch his elbow he brings it back. tebow does a loop, Nassib has a windup i'm not saying he doesn't but it's pretty quick wind up and good motion, in the video you posted he does drop the ball down by his hip but it comes straight up and he drives it, his motion with a minor tweak would be ideal. tebows was unfixable, nassib just needs a minor tweak
40td's and 6 picks is pretty impressive
it's nothing like tebows. tebow has a wind up. nassib makes a 90 degree angle, elbow back and up and drives it.
the ideal motion is football at chest, elbow comes back and ball raises up to shoulder and drive to release. making a 90 degree from when you bring the elbow back to up to the shoulder then out. which nassib does he just lowers his forearm and brings the ball down in that 1 video you posted. which can be easily fixed.
NOTHING like tebows.
Watch geno's motion it's damn near perfect to, he just doesn't lower the forearm like nassib does. and he doesn't drive like nassib does, which isn't a bad thing cause nassib needs to get a little more touch.
Geno's gotta make that throw to the sideline. Not impressive so far.
So these are the number one and four QB prospects in the draft? What a bad year for us to suck.
both qb's are being affected by the weather but nassib is making the better throws and his wr's just dropping them, geno looks like he's struggling with the weather and his throws more.. so far, things could change though
this weather sucks, not letting either qb show off and now they just leaning towards the runs and screen passes... oh well.
and there's one of the knocks on geno showing it's ugly head.. pocket awarness and making a smart play rather than trying to force something
Couple of ugly throws by Nassib before the TD run.
ya gotta have better situational awarness there for sure. from the 1 in a pistol formation he already 5 yards deep in the endzone, and to just try to sidestep and keep his eyes downfield rather than dump it at a receivers feet or get it out of the endzone he stayed locked on and tried to sidestep 2 free rushers.
and that little dump pass by nassib he's got to complete that!
Great job there by Geno at the line of scrimmage. Even better run by Bailey.
i don't think he actually changed anyting other then send him in motion. think that play was designed that way from the get go, hence the other wr's instantly turning to block for the quick slant. But regardless geno made some nice throws that drive.
UGH. How anyone could think Rivers' throwing motion is better than Nassib's is laughable. The awkwardness of Rivers' throwing motion is only surpassed by Byron Leftwich and Tim Tebow... not to mention, I don't think I've EVER seen Rivers throw a spiral. I've NEVER seen a QB throw more ducks than Rivers. The only REAL positive I can say about him is that he's tall and accurate... that's about it.
agreed, i'm sold that i want either 1 of the USC stud wr's or one of the WV Stud wr's in the draft though.. Atleast 1 off either team!
Nice drive featuring Nassib. The last throw was questionable, but can't argue with the result.
At least Nassib LOOKS like Tom Brady... or is that Bobby Brady? Too bad the weather is what it is. We aren't getting a legitimate look here. Conservative crap, screens etc. The few downfield throws I've seen by either have either been woefully short or nowhere near the receiver.
ouch... horrible throw by nassib. not sure what he was looking at
ya, I just saw the replay... looked like he didn't look before he threw and expected his WR to be his check down and open. That was a really poor decision. Good play by the defender though. Making that catch in that weather was impressive.
