Would work for me. Dantin and Owens ran the top 2011 Offense in the MAC. That team had those 50-60 point games that "MACTiON" was borne out of.

play the guy that can make the play. But I don't think that really give them the experience needed to run an offense, makes reads... I'm not a fan of the platoon system, playing a guy just so he gets touches, swapping them every drive.... Over that I would prefer play the one guy and if lead gets big enough, get the other guy in to practice running the offense later in the game.

I agree, also not a big fan of platoon QBs, most often fails eventually. You end up with the wrong guy on the field at the wrong time, also hurts ability of QB to get into flow of game and of passing

If you have two, you have none.

Bradley could run for days if he effort kept the ball on read options. Finn does not look capable of throwing a ball downfield.

In the first two games, Finn has come in for the 3rd possession. I wonder if that is by chance or planned?

I think for 80% of the season, CB is the guy and can get the job done. For the other 20% (which includes any 2 pt conversion, 3rd and Goals and the occasionally driver starter) I see Finn on the field. If we get into games that are bad weather, Finn gives us an advantage.

I agree, Bradley can only get better and should get most of the reps. How about this, on certain plays have both Brad and Finn in the game at the same time. Gives the defense another dimension to look at.

Leak and Tebow won a national championship.
Dantin and Owens were the MAC's top Offense in 2011.

And Bradley and Finn almost beat top 10 ND.

We'll never knw what Bradley alone would have done. Finn's drives stalled out. I was honestly at the time surprised why he was even in there if not to use his legs. We can only wonder right? What if Bradley had had all the drives? What if Candle in Finn's first drive had used Finn much like ND used Buchner instead of having him stand in pocket?

A game that close, there were a lot of ways to tip to our favor, in hindsight.

I’m looking for the play with both QBs on the field at the same time. There’s a lot that could be done with that formation

I’m ordinarily not a fan of this except in limited packages but the chemistry appears to be there and Candle managed it well. I like it.
