So the QB decision has made itself.

Aware. Had both those guys names jumbled in my head.

All good.

I see where you are coming from. I think it was a mistake to pull Chandler at ULM too. But the cycle of not sticking with the hot hand has to end somewhere. I think now is the time after we had the biggest win of the season.

Agreed. You have to stick with Ben until there is a reason to pull him. Period.

[CajunVic]

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

What if Mike goes back to doing what he was doing?

100% agree.

Fields is younger than Wooldridge and gets another shot next season.

…….So you athletic history guys remember the name Wally Phipps…….well he was a first baseman for the Yanks and had a headache one day that led him to sit the day out….a guy named Lou Gehrig subbed that day and for the rest of his career……no not a true analogy, but #2 sure performed well……so who is gonna play and why? A decision awaits if injuries aren’t in play that will have many for and against the outcome!

Then the administration gets together & has Mike sent away for R & R due to CTSD & reprogramming, maybe even ectro shock therapy.

your call on the podcast postgame last night had me banging on the table

I hope it wasn't because you wanted to bang my head against a tree.

I agree with sticking with one QB. There is a reason why chandler was named starter after the conclusion of spring and fall. How do you know if chandler was given this same opportunity when healthy we wouldn’t have beaten them by even a larger margin? We don’t because he has never been giving that chance. I just can’t see a kid losing the job that he earned, over the long haul with out giving him the same opportunity, as the kid your giving it to. If Des pulled chandler in Monroe because “he’s a man of his word.” He sure won’t bench chandler without giving him equal opportunity.

I don't think we've seen Chandler's best yet but he has clearly shown he is more susceptible to letting quirky in game disruptions affect the quality of his game.

I can only go back to my post about our defense being the strength of the team and needing the offense to be able to run the ball to compliment them. Ben gives us a running game that we don’t have with our line and backs. With Chandler we eliminate the ability to run.

I don’t know what words CMD made with his QBs. But we are in the bottom half of our division and have to play our best football to have a chance to win the division here on out. You play the guys that give you the best chance to win. I believe that would give CMD way more credibility with the whole team although admittedly I don’t know all the internal details.

I say this with the belief that Chandler has superior arm talent and passing ability than Ben. I have wanted Chandler to be the sole starter all year. The Marshall game, although far from perfect, was the best the team has looked and it was against arguably the best competition and on the road. I can’t ignore that.

There’s a nice “rehab unit” near Conroe from what I understand. Might even have a golf course.
