I'm even more upset that Fitz didn't win the job. Absolutely no excuse for him not to put the extra effort in being the new Leader..
Mullen is so funny.
I hear Fitz has some things he needs to work on off the field to get on Dan's good side..
The QB and RB are both troubling b/c the talent isn't rising to the top. That coupled with Mullen's fear of youthful mistakes is going to limit our upside.
That said it also limits our downside and I get the feeling the Mullen is going to see if the defense coupled with getting our slot guys in space is enough to win most of the games. If after a few games the O is really struggling I think you'll see a massive youth movement in the backfield and we're going to find out if Williams, Gibson or Murphy can be workhorse and if Tiano is the guy or not
I still can't believe people get worked up over this stuff. Damian Williams has seniority, he'll start. Probably play a series, and then Fitz goes in for a series. Whoever plays better moves forward. This game is basically a scrimmage.
And before everyone loses their collective minds it WILL be much closer than most want to see. Unless USA is just atrocious. We'll probably play 85 different guys.
This usually sends everybody into cardiac arrest.Quote:

People get worked up because whoever the QB is needs to get reps. People want it to be Fitz because he actually has some upside. If Fitz is really screwing around, then there's not much to do other than what Dan is doing.Quote:

The QB competition starts Saturday at 11.

Forget 5-7, if we lose this game we could be looking at 2-10.Quote:

If there is one thing I can assure you, it's that we will play one QB on every play next week. Guaranteed.

I want to see how the QBs look. I expect we will see all three, and we should.Quote:

It's funny how the underclassmen always have these major issues that keep them off the field until the upperclassmen graduate.Quote:
