Could any performance by Bench have secured him the job?

The real issue is that Bench cannot be rewarded by his own level of play. Any play time Bench gets is completely dependent on White throwing 2 interceptions and having 4 dropped snap. Bench could be slinging 90% and 30 TDS every practice but White will start as long he can pass for 40% and throw 1 TD for every interception.

Tim Tebow and Johnny Manziel couldn't dethrone White.

Some of these posts are absurd.  Yes, Taggart is totally part of a shadowy anti-Steven Bench cabal whose sole purpose in life is to suppress the One True QB.

CWT is doing a good job in some areas, but I don't understand what he's doing with the QB's.    Are the OC and QB coach on the same page with CWT regarding Mike White?

If White has a bad game this game then I think Bench/Flowers will start next week. 

 

White was showing signs of improvement before last week.

He really was...there were times that White really looked solid. It's the inconsistency that's the issue, of course.

Someone else said they saw him grimacing on TV and wondered if his arm/wrist was still bothering him. Reflecting on it, wasn't the diagnosis a fracture? Usually that puts someone out for a while, and White barely sat at all. Maybe it's more serious than previously thought and he's been playing through pain?...

I believe you are correct Taggart will keep White in there unless he has a serious injury

Remember who has it better than us noooobody. We got White

I doubt the QBs do either.

It doesn't appear so.

That's it!

 

Bench could have secured himself the job if he had run out of bounds and "accidentally" injured White!

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
