I agree. I don't want to see a 2 QB system. No need for it if your starter has a complete skill set including mobility and escapability.
Why do people (coaches for example) do the same thing expecting different results?
I had hoped Hosick was the happy middle, but seems like we have one QB who is an OK runner, but can't throw and one OK thrower that can't run. Given the choice, you HAVE to throw the ball in today's spread offense world. Sorry Ricky
I completely disagree. Look at some of these teams with spread systems who are successful. You have to be able to use your legs now a days as a QB. It's such a weapon. Especially in the college game. Ricky can throw just as well as Hunter can when given the opportunity.
"You have to use your legs" Yeah, like the 3 best QB's in the last decade, Brady, Manning and Rodgers?
I guess we'll have to agree to disagree, because the key to the spread it throwing far more than QB running. Even Mariota at Oregon threw far more than he ran. But that wasn't my point. My point is AGAINST the spread, you need to score a ton and you can't score a ton with 2 180-190 tailbacks and no fullback and a mediocre running QB that can’t throw. We MUST throw to win and while anybody can type "Ricky can throw as well as Hunter", it doesn't mean a damn thing because he can't. Why do you think the coaches gave the job to Wells? To sabotage the team and keep the superior player Davis on the bench? Obviously they gave the job to Hunter because he was superior to the ok running poor passing of Davis. Good grief man, he completes 44% of he passes. Wells, at 54% is 10% lower than needed. Where to you think Davis gets the 20% improvement? And remember, watch the games, Davis is NOT a great runner either! He is better than Wells, but NOT great.
I hope you are right, but there is certainly NO evidence to support your position.
