Would any team in the SEC actually trade Quarterbacks with us?
Like seriously some may say auburn but that?s mainly coaching and how bad their o line is.

No way would Auburn take Will over Ashford.
We do need a new QB. I'm real tired of watching a 3 year starter play like a true freshman.
Time to enjoy the win and 9 win season!
.......is a great young man and representative of Our State!!!!
That's all I have to say today.
Congrats young man.
He was better today than the egg bowl. I could tell he was trying to be more of a playmaker when the play broke down and was trying to not just go straight to the back in the flat
Holy shit just enjoy the win and stop complaining for five minutes.
Will had a ton on his plate today.
I?m just glad the ESPN crew found out that he was coming back next year and not declaring for the NFL draft.
I'm going to enjoy the win and not worry the offense. I doubt Arnett will take the advice from us on who to hire as OC or what to do about qb next year anyway. Ha
Thank goodness for Simeon Price, Justin Robinson, and our defense
Guy lost a father figure. Think it's ok to give him a break on this one.
Good grief! Take one day without throwing a negative spin on a positive moment. ITS A WIN.
We've won a lot of games with Will at QB...that' all
We're limited with him. Thankfully we can still win 9 games. Have to wonder what we can do with a mobile QB though
Yeah, I?m going to give Will props. I think he played a good game. He made some great throws. He did just lose his mentor and played well considering. He had one interception which was a bad decision. The other was not on him. He led us in the second half. 14 of 18 I believe for 122yds and 1 TD. How many times did he take a sack? Hell, he even scrambled and ran a few. No, he?s not a runner, but he didn?t crumble and cause negative played. Let?s enjoy the win.
He lead us to a 9-4 record, including an Egg Bowl win and a bowl win, and a likely top 20 finish in the rankings. I'll always think positively of him.
If we can get someone better next year, definitely do it, but I think that sentence is always true for every position.
Will has a serious issue with defenders easily getting a hand on his passes and deflecting them. Was it 6 deflections today, I counted?
Will is like 5?10 and telegraphs his passes. I love the guy, but would like a QB that is taller, with a stronger arm, and more mobility.
I’m no Will Rogers superfan, but I hate comments like this. Sure, there are some things Rogers just doesn’t have that other QBs do, and that’s one of them. But he also brings things to the table that others don’t, and with him, we’ve been darn solid to quite good.
Adding a mobile QB who doesn’t also bring the things Rogers brings to the table doesn’t get you anywhere and likely sends you backward. We would all take a world-beater at QB, but Will Rogers is a good QB and we should absolutely appreciate what he does do well a heck of a lot more than we do.
Will is a great kid.. prob one of the best all around off the field kids to ever play at MSU
But since the student athletes didn’t want to be treated like student athletes anymore , it’s a business now
So if an upgrade is available you take you. You make a business decision. Risk / Reward
Will may very well be our starting QB next year , but times have changed in college sports.
I'd take KJ Jefferson in a heartbeat and wouldn't think twice.
Arnett was lobbed some softball questions in the postgame presser about Will’s play at the end of the game where the reporters tried to make him out to be some sort of hero. Arnett said that the defense deserves the credit or something similar. If the rumors of Briles to MSU are true then Will has more than likely played his last game here.
Both can be true. Will Rogers is gritty, a great teammate, a smart player, and a great representative of MSU.
Will Rogers has maxed his ability, cannot move in or out of the pocket, has below average arm strength, and limits offensive possibilities.
what if he has maxed his ability? That ability just lead us to 9 wins and an egg bowl win. Did you not watch Stetson Benett play like shit for the first half? It is easy to be critical of a QB --especially when He throws 50 times a game.. Not every pass will be perfect--not every decision will be the right one. Do- I scream at Will during the game-Hell Yes. If we continue to run an air raid scheme--I an all in with Will--If we change to a scheme that calls for a mobile QB --then we will have to see where that leads Us.. 9 wins will be hard to top--especially when your schedule was as hard as ours. Who else played Ga and Bama and won 9? LSU?
I disagree completely that Will and the offense won 9 games. This year was a team win if there ever was one. The defense and special teams (besides FG kickers) has to get as much or more credit. Heck we just won our 9th game scoring 13 points on offense. It's was a great team effort that got us 9 wins and if our defense was at the offense level, we are fighting for a bowl game.
I start with I want the best QB we can have on the field next season.
Will has some glaring weaknesses (mobility and down field vision) but I doubt any of us have ever seen a more accurate passer wearing maroon and white. The throws that Will does make are difficult and accurate. He makes a lot of throws.....a lot. Another QB, like KJ, would definitely be more mobile and throw downfield more. But can he make the accurate throws. Go back and watch some of the throws Will made in the 4th quarter. Pretty damn good.
