The difference between Thompson & Shaw?

Is spurrier. He calls plays more effectively and more players are in the flow of the offense (when thompson is in). But you have to look at games like mizzou where shaw was healthy and was damn near perfect.

The difference ain't the player per se. It's the coach. The Hbc when he runs zone read runs the offense by committee. When Dylan is in there it's simply fun and gun.

 
Maybe, but I suspect some of those same plays are called for Shaw when he hesitates to throw and takes off running. Just a guess on my part.

Absolutely right. Spurrier knows how to call a game. I never agree with people complaining about play calling. Shaw has struggled executing the called passing plays since he's been here. He's been very successful, but he's not the best pure passer in the world, and either doesn't read defenses well, or doesn't trust what he sees often.
