Here's hoping Edwards gets a start at QB this year

Armanti shouldn't start, but he should see time as a wildcat QB in various packages. God knows our offense can't get any worse, and the quarterbacks we have are all exactly the same - and with our porous offensive line that's just a recipe for disaster. The main question will be if Armanti can throw the ball well so that it's not an automatic "Here's Edwards, so get ready for 3 QB draws!" If he can keep the defense honest, I think his athleticism could at least make the offense a little more diverse.

I certainly wouldn't openly root for him to fail so that I could be the "told ya so" guy on an Internet message board towards Appalachian State fans that I'll never meet in my life. If he ends up being our best option at QB, I hope he's amazing. And I'll root him on accordingly, just as I will Clausen or Pike or West Texas A&M guy or whoever.

Yeah good luck against Wofford this week. Thats some mean competition. Are you playing Independence the following week?

You can laugh at them all you want but that is Jerry Richardson's Alma Mater and he has given and given to them. They are a good Triple Option team. GaTech has won a lot of games since Johnson went there from Navy and GaSo before that. Who knows, maybe Richardson will make the Wofford football coach, Ayers, coach of the Panthers. If it wasn't for taking Mike Ayers away from Wofford, I bet he would. I believe their only lose this year was about a touchdown to South Carolina.

Do you think Independence could have beaten the Panthers last Sunday. I almost believe some of their Championship team could have played them hard.

You're seriously suggesting that a high school football team could hang with an NFL team even as bad as ours is.....

I said, "I almost believe".

Just saying, watch the DVD of how badly we played. It was no "romp through the park".

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
