Louisiana's 2015 Quarterback Situation

[CajunRage]

Let's ignore that he was undrafted and was passed over by 32 NFL teams after UNI. Let's ignore the 3 years in arena football and 1 year in Europe. Guess those NFL GMs and coaches can't evaulate talent to pass over a future HOF QB

I didn't want to go that route but the Kurt Warner story will NEVER be duplicated.

I'm not saying (and neither are you) that we're choosing between a Jake or a Brian... but that is a good argument around what I'm saying. Jake would beat out Brian in a pass oriented offense... and Brian would beat Jake in a dual threat QB offense. I strongly believe "philosophy" will decide our next QB. In today's contests, if Brian and Jake were competing, Jake would never see the field, unless Brian got injured.

If Hud had a QB battle between Brian and Jake in their prime he would start Mitchell based on his philosphy (which has proved to work) Nothing against Jake.

And if this is the case then Nixon or Davis has the advantage, period.

The difference in what you are stating and this argument is that both Mitchell and Jake have completed their careers. So people will accept that statement.

But it is the very best comparison to use. Now who would y'all rather have as a QB? Jake or Mitchell. That is what we will get this Spring with Haack vs whoever.

It doesn't matter who the fans want. We don't have all the information and know these players like Coach Hud does. That is why he is being paid $1 Million a year.

It might boil down to do you prefer s player like Brian Mitchell or jake Delhommne. Those two were exceptions of course. But they both were solid citizens. Nixon needs to grow up fast. Hack needs to prove the USA debacle was a one time thing.

This is why we have Spring practice......the Coaches will decide

In hindsight of course....I would bet Brian himself would tell you to dot the I with him and let Jake take the snaps......wow, what a backfield

Coach, they don't read our free consulting services on RP and then decide? If this is true, this shatters a lot of my delusions of self-importance. You are just kidding, right?

Boomer… we get it. You have a love fest for Nixon. I don't think anyone (especially not I) thinks Nixon is a terrible human being for smoking pot and shouldn't be allowed to play QB because of his mistakes… I think people are saying you can't name him a starter, knowing that if he has the slightest screw up, he's off the team… and then what do you do? The position is too important to have a guy absolutely zero wiggle room named the starter. Now should we play him in other places he could contribute, but not decimate the entire offense if he just so happened to get in trouble again, like say, as a complement to McGuire at RB? Absolutely… just can't hand him the keys to the empire knowing he is walking on egg shells

Over/under on pages this will end up? 10?

Thank you, Campo. This is exactly my reasoning.
