He's another run first pass second guy and he's not Vince Young talented and neither is the rest of the Hokies. Tyrod is good for extending plays and breaking plays against tiring defenses, but he chokes in pressure situations especially that 3rd down throw way behind the WR. He's a good QB but all you heard was he's going to be better than VIck and a Heisman candidate when he got there. That being said he was a little overrated. Boise's QB Moore on the other hand, that's a guy that looked the part and was a stud. He steps up in the pocket when he needs too, throws well on the move. If he improves his arm strength and mobility just a bit he will be a future 1st round pick.I don't want to call you an idiot, because that is terribly rude and I don't know you, but this statement is asinine. Just because he goofed on one throw in the first game of the season, does not make him a poor passer. He was clearly the better QB in the game Monday night. I was there. Kellen Moore should have been intercepted four or five times. He is a good QB, but made some horrible throws throughout the whole game. Since VT has a younger defensive secondary (minus Carmichael) there were many blown chances at interceptions. Tyrod was accurate, precise, and poised the whole game. He wasn't perfect, but he was 12-14 176 yds and 2 TDs midway through the 4th quarter against the 3rd best team in the nation. No turnovers throughout the whole game. I've never been more impressed with Taylor in his 4 years at Tech.

The game wouldnt have even been close without the stupid errors some boise players made allowing for more yardage and several first downs to VT. Anyone who doesnt think Kellen Moore was the top qb on the field is either asinine or a complete VT homer.jenkins wrote:still not impressed with Tyrod as a passer.
