He is without a doubt the toughest Mfer in the SEC

Not yet, but he could be pretty quickly. He's not turning the ball over and he's wracking up TDs left and right. Kid looks like a faster, more powerful Tim Tebow. I actually think he's good enough to give us a shot against Bama, but they're going to hit about 3 passes over the top and run the ball well against us. That'll be hard to keep up with it.

He?s not close. Just faster.

4. AJ McCarron
5. Nick Fitzgerald
6. Chad Kelly
7. Brandon Allen
8. James Franklin
9. Connor Shaw
10. Jalen Hurts
The most obvious oversight is sCam Newton. He's my #1 guy since he actually had a perfect record and won the NC.
Fitz is a better runner. If he cleans up his passing and his receivers step up next year watch out. The addition of a power running game that Dak didn't legitimately have and an even better defense will give Fitzgerald's team an opportunity to do what Dak's couldn't.
Death penalty or bust!!!***

No they don’t. Fitz hasn’t won enough big games. It’s like saying a .250 hitter with 20 HRs is a great hitter. Fun to watch though. Let’s see how next year goes.

I saw that too, but in second look he said from 2011-present. Cam was in 2010.

Dak carried our team in 2015 with no help in the back field and a lackluster defense. Nick has a good backfield and a good defense.
-

When Dak was QB, 3rd & 12 was the same as 3rd & 2. No big deal. Dak could pick teams a part. Not so much on the deep ball, but from 20 yards in. And Dak could read a defense like Sunday morning comics. He always knew where the open man was.
Nick ain?t there yet.
Nick is not the next Dak. Nick is the first Nick Fitzgerald. Faster than Dak. Better runner than Dak.
Fitz has taken a step up with the passing game the last couple games. Let?s hope he continues to get better.
I think we could have a shot against Bama. Could. Not saying it?s likely. We?ve got to play lights out. Gotta be sharp. And Bama has to have an off day. If Bama plays is like they played A&M...it if Bama plays us like they played Ole Miss one time with 5 turnover gifts...
-
Nah. Fitz is good and I wish we could have a QB as good as him every year, but not better than Dak.

This. ^^^^^. Hammer meets nail.

You folks do realize that you are discussing and arguing about MSU having two very good Quaterbacks back to back plus one more on the roster and another one committed.
Hell people the dawgs have been lucky to of had a serviceable QB in the past. Lets enjoy the times we have now.

Maybe, but we convert 3rd downs at a higher rate this year than in 2014.

It's much more likely that we'd lose several more games with current Fitz in 2015 than we'd win one more in 2014.

The issue in those years was defense and depth.
2014 started going south when J Lewis got hurt. Without him, we didn?t have enough weapons. With him, we had too many weapons for a defense to handle.

Beat Bama and you can go there. Fitz is showing progression throwing the ball but he's not there yet. As I've said a million times, stop trying to make Fitz Dak and enjoy him for what he is
