I mean I want to see Fields get some time in live action but I don’t think there is anyway Napier does that unless Lewis really starts playing terrible. He isn’t giving up on this season after losing to Texas Week 1.

Playing Fields isn’t giving up on the season. Remember Lewis would get basically every 3rd series Napier’s first year here.

He's not going to let Chandler go out there and show he can push the ball down the field unlike his starter.

That was because it was close between Nunez and Levi.

Different situation.

I don’t think Napier believed he could win the conference that year.

Oh my...lol

Napier does defend LL to a fault.

Coach Napier is due a HUGE pay day if he can lead a HUGE historical season, especially if it's one even better than last year.

With that opportunity looming, anyone really believe he would not start and play whichever QB on the roster he, in both his head and his heart, truly felt gave our team a change to win every game?

You wouldn’t think so but sometimes it’s hard to watch our offense and then say that Levi Lewis is the best option we have.

You guys are crazy if you think I want Fields in as the starter over Levi with this team. But I 109% want Chandler Fields to get several series in a row to develop a game rhythm and live game speed experience.

Because if Levi goes down against any of the middle to upper tier SBC programs without meaningful experience we are in trouble.

Agree with this. I'm hoping by some point mid 3rd Q we have a comfortable enough lead that Chandler can get some snaps in with a playbook more open than runs to eat the clock. He does need the experience.

That would be great. But I don't think it happens earlier than the 4th quarter.
