I get the sentiment. My point being if he throws the ball like he has they get the same production out of qb as they had last year. If you run him 8-10 times a game what's the difference?
The thing Kansas state has going for them is Martinez doesn't need to be the best player on the field for them to be successful.
I don’t have any local Nebraska fan friends. When they talk to me they get my take but all assume he’s decent to good. But they also don’t pay any attention to Nebraska unless I’m around.
I don’t see k-state putting as much on Martinez’s shoulders which will help him. Frost’s offense is completely qb centric. If your qb isn’t a quick blinker in that offense you’re fucked. I don’t think Martinez is great, but I expect him to look better in k-states offense because everything won’t be on him plus he will play some shittier defenses.
Last time the OL did some good things was a few games towards the end of 2018.
I expect him to have similar to slightly better passing stats. He gets to win a few more games because his schedule is easier. His running numbers are roughly half of last year. They win the same amount of games + or - 1. So 9-4 - 7-6.
I also wonder if Martinez made the line look bad with holding onto the ball and poor pocket presence. There were also a lot of times he would miss wide open receivers that would kill drives. The good thing is we will see if a lot of it was his fault or not this year. We have a new qb and he is doing his thing at k-state.
I always thought AM was too conservative & part of that was how Verduzco was coaching him. An Cockeye QB on a team that needed a pass-first QB so when guys were open for throws that AM is comfortable with, it’s great but once the windows tighten up, the dude disappeared & so did the offense. Not to mention he can’t think for himself & needs his hand held on situational football.
I just don’t think he saw the field well and instead of anticipating where the receiver would be a lot of times he would wait too long and let the window close. It was pretty bad watching him in person and seeing him miss wide open receivers. When I mean miss them not see them.
Yea & if there was a bunch of ppl doing All-22 videos like the NFL, I think the narrative on him would be different. If there’s any draft stuff on him, I don’t think it’ll be pretty but I think he’s destined to become a UDFA & no one will bother
Good find. I knew the picture had to be out there somewhere
Ehhhh. I think that's a little of an outdated view. I think he had fans 2-3 yrs ago but nationally a lot of fans see him for what he is, very good guy but super mistake prone. Just following social media last year there was a big recognition among a lot of non Nebraska fans that Martinez had a bit of a clutch problem late in games.
i luv ya Herbie! beers at the brass rail on Thursday???! BELLLCHH i just love Husker football and all that comes w it
