I just can't get excited about Wilson.  I don't trust BYU products at all.  Fields threw a couple bad passes, but he still made plays...  reminded me a lot of Cam having all of the responsibility to make something happen.

The way I see it is Wilson is doing more with less against bad competition. Fields is doing less with more against good competition. Where that leaves us? Well I don’t know.

If you factor in last seasons film, Fields has done more against much better competition than BYU has played. Wilson had three games last year with 0 touchdown passes and 2 interceptions. One of which was their bowl game against Hawaii. He only had three games last season where he didn’t throw a pick. The year before he had 3 games with no touchdown passes at all. I’ll ignore his first game where he only threw two passes. 
 

Fields only has three games his whole career where he threw an INT. 
 

Fields was human in this game but he’s been lights out the previous three to the tune of basically 280 passing yards a game, 4 touchdowns a game and completing just under 90% of his passes. That isn’t doing less with more.

What's the knock on BYU QBs? Historically they've had pretty good success at the position. They just haven't really had any high level NFL QB prospects in awhile.

I dislike the whole argument of “kid goes to Y school so he can’t be a good pro”. That’s not a good way to judge prospects at all. The only knock on BYU this year is the same as Trey Lance faced last year and this year: They don’t play anybody all year long. So you’ll judge based off of skills and not results, or judge them off of one game to end the year. It’s sucks.

Jeremy Chinn may win rookie of the year and was playing for a nothing school this time last year. Couldn’t agree with you more.

I’m afraid that Fields might just be another Deshaun Watson. Looks good but can’t single handily win you a game when it’s needed most. Wilson might not be spectacular and from a smaller school but could be special in the NFL. 

Lol what?  One of the silliest things I’ve read in awhile

      So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.

      My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
