No... it's confirmation bias.
People expect Flowers to suck, so the few people on here who have actually been to a practice, they see more of the bad plays than they see of the good plays... bad plays reinforce their opinion.
These same people also think that Woulard will be our savior... so they see more of the good plays, and less of the bad ones.
Then for the vast majority of people who have not seen a practice, they get their perspective reinforced further... they laugh at people who say something that goes against their belief... and they give more credibility to people who say what they are expecting.
People who have not been to a practice should really take everything (pro or con) with a grain of salt... and be sure they aren't just agreeing with people who think like them.
Exactly ... Nobody on here has been to every open practice and watched every throw. So the only ones who will have a really informed opinion will be the coaches.
Either one starting is fine with me. If it's close start the senior with more experience. If they're going to rely on the qb as more of a rb than passer, go with Q.
One quirky little personal comparison I had was in BJ's true FR year, he got in for a few plays. Somewhere ratlling around the echo chamber of my brain, I remembered hearing that one of the toughest throws to master was a deep down and out to the sideline. BJ executed one of those beautifully and I simplistically thought then that, just based on that one throw, we'd be fine when MG was gone. Q executed one of those in one of the practices I went to and it immediately brought back that memory .... obviously different circumstances but I can't control what my memory conjures up .... and now you know the rrrrest of the story.
If I also hadn't seen QF 3 hop a screen pass on more than one occasion, I'd think the same way.
I think a 3 hop screen pass is a physical impossibility so I'm calling ******** ...
Ok. It was a 2 hop screen pass...
