LOL sure. Let's discuss the topic at hand without being a smart you know what and pissing people off. Folks would love that. Let's do it shall we?

Two quarterbacks are fine if it is done right. I just don't think it was done right in the Troy game. I didn't like the timing.

I guess when the defense is on the field they are all benched. I also guess AB never put on a head set either. There is a reason I have to field complaints about two particular posters on this board and it is wearing thin.

Its not my fault people here can't take a joke

LOL

Correct. McGee knew up front when he wanted to put JP in & stood with his decision.

At the time, AB was doing very well & I think taking him out disrupted things.

I was still cheering for JP to perform, but it did end up being very bad timing on the field from his predetermined plan.

I agree.

And to anyone who thinks it wouldn't have made a difference, I'd point out was that all we'd have needed to win was one more field goal.

And you can point to something on just about every play where they could have gotten those three points. Troy can do the same thing. You can't blame just one play or one series.

Now every one go complain to Attalla if you disagree with my post.

You got a disease man.

No idea what is happening. That time it posted 4 times. I have since removed the 3 duplicates.

Just so we are clear, the 2 qbs aren't "equal" as in talent or performance on the field.

And not all at once. There was a 30 minute gap between the 3rd and 4th time.

Sure, but given how close the game was, and how well Brown was playing when McGee made the switch, you know what that say about if it ain't broke...

No just use report a post so it logs it. Back on topic. Agree with MB.

But how would he know that Perry wouldn't do even better without giving him a shot. You give both their shot and go with the hot hand.

Of course we are now closer to the next game than to the last. 'Bout time to recalibrate, recharge, and move on to LSU.

Well hell, the Patriots might want to give Ryan Mallett a go this year. I know Tom Brady is good and all, but without a shot, how do we know which onehas. Same with Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers, Cam Newton, etc. You never know, the backups could do better!

They had a hot hand in the game.

But how would you know Perry wouldn't be hotter? I suspect that one of them, most likely Brown will win the job full time. But he is giving his sr. qB a chance to earn the position. Perry didn't earn it Saturday. He'll probably get a few more chances and then he will be sitting full time.

He told Perry before the game he would get his shot in the third series. I admire him for keeping his word. Had he gone with Brown the entire game and we lost, the crybabies here would be screaming because he didn't put Perry in the game.

I have never heard the Patriots coach say those two QBs were equal. But then again I don't follow the NFL.

I have no idea.

What I do know is that Brown was lighting Troy up like a pinball machine when he came out.

If a two-guard has hit 7 of 10 shots, do you replace him because the other guy might hit 8?
