Welcome to Week 5 of TDG's Football Seminar. For those of you just joining us, we are reading Chris B. Brown's The Art of Smart Football. This week we looked at three chapters: Five Stories About the Spread, The Quarterback Curve, and Total Package:"Packaged Plays" are Changing the Way We Think About Offense.
The theme for this week is a familiar one around TDG of late-what does it mean to be a good quarterback? Mitch Leidner's struggles over the last year, Phil Nelson before him, and MarQueis Gray before him, have convinced a fair amount of the Gopher commentariat that Minnesota has a problem developing quarterbacks.
