    I'm from Missouri on this one.

    But if he does, we could make some noise. Would love to see Hargrove streaking outside tackle or delay draw for some big runs. Ds will adjust if we get some balance and then that is when an O can explode.

    Much of that from holding ball too long and not tucking and running when it's there. JMO.

    That will be the best Leach synopsis we get all season. Lol

    34 of those "carries" were sacks.

    Will completed 75% of his passes last year. I say he can chuck it as much as he wants.

    I wish sacks would count against your passing totals. I mean, it happened during a “passing” play.

    Will is a great QB for this system.

    Will is not Dak, Relf or Nick Fitzgerald. He is not built to take a pounding. If we ran him even 5 times a game, I don't think he makes it through a season. We need him throwing the ball not running with it.

    The idea is not to run Will. It’s for Will to take those yards that were there when things broke down instead of throwing an incompletion. Just get positive yards or move the chains and get down before taking a hit.

    Funny how we went from air raid, throw throw throw to the QB needs to run when he can. Hahaha.

    However it isn't that this offense needs a running QB or a QB to run when he can. It's that this offense in combination with MSUs OL, needs a QB that is quick enough to make a defender miss to buy more time.

    Let's bring in Fran Tarkenton and see if he can still play. I loved to watch him play. And I might add his intent was always to throw the ball.

    Can't reveal my sources, but Leach found Emory Bellard's playbook cleaning out an old desk. We will be running the wishbone with Will this season.****
