You gotta appreciate a fan like D-Owl, that can have a gut feeling, but has the ability to see things another way. Early on, I was a fan of Robison. I knew there would be growing pains. After FIU, I was thinking we need to play Johnson if we wanted to go Bowling. Now, like D-Owl, I'm thinking Chris. I wish I could put D'Andre's legs on Chris. Bottom line, Lane and company needs to see which one has the hot hand and play them. I'm glad I'm a fan and not a coach.Posted On: Nov 11th 2018, 8:05 AM #383170
College QBs can be a fickle/fragile bunch (I was a college QB 30+ pounds and 25+ years ago). The thing that probably hampers DJ is the idea that he tries to do too much in an attempt to impress, and then he can compound a mistake because he is scared to make another one while appearing to have a fairly short leash. The QB spot is the one position on the field where guys need to get a feel for the game and a rhythm going to be really effective.
That being said, Robison is clearly the future and is a better passer. But the post about our running game wearing people down is spot on. I don't care who the QB is as long as they take care of the ball and we end up gashing people later in the game with Motor and Whyte (sounds a lot like 2017!!!).

Like quicksand…
It's gotta be 100x bigger for a guy like DJ with all of Twitter and Netflix watching. I feel for the guy in that regard.

WE gain yards but we still struggle to close with TD's. If ya have constant trouble converting 3rd downs - avoid them with better more ambitious play calls on 1st and 2nd downs. We have decent to good pass blocking, run the routes a bit deeper, stop so may short behind the "line of gain" (who else hates this new term!!!) passes hoping your guys gets blocks or make them miss! And go to the end zone MORE before ya get inside the red zone where D's are more congested and better!
Congrats on the win Owls, WKU made us tough it out. Now, on to N. Texas and win out!
