Underwood was awful, but so was the run game. I've seen some bad Michigan offenses before, but this might be the worst one. They're not one-dimensional, there's nothing they do well.
Something I think about a lot every CFB season: How Mike Leach frequently reiterated that quarterback accuracy cannot be taught or significantly fixed once a player reaches high school, college, or the NFL.
This seems to be true. Whenever I see a young QB with a lot of arm potential if only they improved their accuracy, I have to remind myself that will likely never happen.
accuracy is not his problem. decision making is. constantly throwing into double coverage, holding balls too long, etc. i don't think I've seen him their a single ball away.
he's got enough accuracy. he isn't perfect, but most guys aren't. but it's like he's still 18, back when he could get away with just his elite physical tools. but now he needs mental tools and they just aren't developing.
