As long as Hare completes his passes and establishes consistency, the job is his. If he struggles like he did against Kent and Arkansas, then Maddie will continue to see chances.

I really don't think he struggled in either case. Anyone would have been overmatched against Arkansas. His numbers were not bad against Kent, they just couldn't get the ball in the endzone. Wouldn't call that struggling.

True, but you also have to remember that he overthrew Da'ron on what would've been a sure TD pass and he missed at least 2 bubble screens, which are the bread and butter play of this offense. He had opportunities to score points, but he missed them, and I'm not including the FG Wedel missed because that's beyond his control. If he makes that throw to Da'ron and those bubble screens, I doubt we would've even seen Maddie until the second half.

What this quote tells me is that Carey believes Hare is the best QB of the two he's got right now. A good portion of me agrees with him, despite what Maddie's done in limited time.

We're all agreed that Hare has the best arm of the bunch, if he can be accurate consistently. The throws he made against NU are some that Mac and Maddie quite possibly couldn't have made. Also, despite Maddie being the better runner, which every can agree with, Hare isn't a bad runner. He has an unusual upright running style that could get him killed one of these days, but he can be effective when he needs to be. Finally, and I noticed this particularly in the 4th quarter of the NU game, which I believe to be the best football he's played this year, he can be very effective running the zone read/read option. He completely fooled the camera on several plays in the 4th quarter and my exact thought was, "We haven't seen anyone run it like that since Harnish."

Take it for what it's worth, regardless of who you think is better, but right now Carey believes Hare is the best QB he has and he's going to keep putting him out there hoping he finally finds consistency. If that happens, the only times you'll see Maddie in the game are in garbage time, or a play or two here or there ala Harnish/Lynch in 2010 and 2011.

MD, may I ask what you do for a living?

You're like the biggest downer and find pessimism in any situation.

Are you an undertaker?

Totally agree.

Hare's the starting QB and if he plays well will see the vast majority of the playing time. It's not exactly breaking news to anyone but MD.

The funny part of this is MD and Carey are way closer to seeing eye to eye on this than Carey and I am, and I'm the one defending Carey.

I'd be starting Maddie on Saturday.

So they're both going to play.

Beebe was cleared to play too.

Trainwreck, nothing more can be said

I can't wait for McIntosh to come back. The trifecta will be complete.

Seriously if I were Root, Id be sending applications to ever school I could right now

why would he do that. MD why do you follow this team you are always negative and its does get tiring listening to your act. Just quit following the team and enjoy your life

I would be starting maddie also. Our team has been at its best with a more mobile quarterback. Unless we are changing our offense, go with maddie and run the offense similar to lynch. Once maddie was given the chance to throw the ball, he has shown he can make enough throws to make the offense work. Minus the interception be kent, maddie is doing fine with the limited experience. More playing time means better reads, both passing and running. Hare doesn't fit the offensive scheme as well as maddie

Perhaps Carey believes Hare will allow the offense to do more if he can be effective throwing the football. I agree that Maddie makes the offense look very similar to how Lynch ran it the last two years, but maybe having a QB who can throw as well as Hare potentially can could possibly make the offense even better than it was.

In all reality, I think we'll see Billy Lowe QB before the seasons over.

It would certainly be about time. Poor Billy has been day-to-day for a few years now. Wonder what's been wrong with him?

Ding ding, we have a winner. 7 I'm glad your vision is functioning and can understand what type of player we need to QB this offense.
Cheers.

Hare starts, but Maddie has to get a series. The 3rd series is the best or the 1st of the 2nd quarter. He has to play. I want some pancakes out of that OLine.
