QB CONTROVERSY?

[manizzle]

As of saturday, do we have a QB controversy? With the emergence of desormeaux as a viable dual threat qb, and Babb, still sluggish after his break, should we stick with Desormeaux, and allow him to develop as the season continues? Babb is an excellent qb, and I have not forgotten all of the illustrious numbers that he has put up, but is MD capable of even more? Is it a disservice to our football program to sit MD b/c of the incumbent, but very capable, JB? Just a thought.

I thought it would be fun just to see how cajun fans, as a whole, view our QB situation.

I love Babb, but hope he's a little stronger for next week's game. If he isn't I'm sure Desormeaux will start.

We got word from a trainer yesterday that Babb would start, but he didn't so I guess you just never know.

Babb looked very rusty. I think Desomeaux is in sink right now but Babb needs time. Great to know either QB can lead us. Just need to work on Pass defense now. WE WERE LUCKY but we WON.

I think the whole team feeds off of Desormeaux's energy. To me it is no contest Desormeaux should be the starter.

Babb is a much better QB... Desourmeaux is just a better athlete... He should be on the field, but I would work him in at wideout and pretty much anywhere for gimmick plays...

Babb is the man for this year. He was just rusty last night after the long lay-off. Once he gets back in sync, he will be the best option for us to win now. MD's future is very bright and it is mostly in front of him. He is getting valuable experience this year. I believe after Babb returns full-time, MD will still see significant playing time. I don't see it as a QB controversy. We have 2 (at least!) gifted QB's. That is a good dilemma to have.

Babb is a great guy. However the best athlete should play the game and that is by far MD. Lets look at last night, MD first two series two td's. Babbs first three series, nothing. MD comes back in before the half and drives to two first downs and our great offensive coaching staff brings in Babb and the drive stalls. What was that all about taking MD out in the middle of a drive when we are moving the ball? I think we should put Babb back in the game when we have a game in hand and see how he compares to MD from there. The problem is going to be next year when MD is going to for sure be the best qb on the team. What are they going to do then?

If Babb is 100%, start him. This is still his team!

I know Babb was only like 3 out of 10, but the receivers dropped at least 3 of those incompletions. I thought he was throwing the ball very well, especially for not having played in a month.

I agree with you on that one.....he should have at least been 6 for 10!!


I think they should use the same approach next week. Clearly the team is feeding off of MD so let him start and play.

Babb is still rusty....2 different times he was standing in the pocket waiting for something to open up....finely tuned Babb would have been long gone with his feet.

If we go up by 21, put Babb in.
If we go down by 14, put Babb in.
