QB Question

I know that the beginning of this season is supposed to help prepare our team for Conference play as well as for the developement of the program (besides the nice paychecks)….so why aren't we playing our back-up QB in the second quarter??? I'm all for Embick playing, but I know he'll only be the starter for one year and I think our team will be much better next year after this year's experience…..So………..
Does anyone know if Souverain will play against Minnesota as a QB and not just a kick returner?

Schnelly has deviated from his normal rotation of the QB's and for good reasons - Once we get into conference play we should start seeing McKinson under center more. Why put him in those situation where he is running for his life and mistakes can only hurt his development - the guy need to develop his head a little more and would only set him back by being put in very hostitle enviroment.

Getting him in games as a returner & possibly at WR will allow him to get his feet wet and get a feel for game speed.

Plus, I always felt that it hurts any momentum when you switch QB's - If the game get's out of hand in Minnesota this Saturday, we just may see Mckinson in the 4th Quarter anyway.

Souverain did play one series in the 4th quarter against OSU. I believe he ran the ball twice for minimal yardage.

He did get in for a play or two.

I agree with Bytor about the confidence factor. Coach has deviated from his routine and for good reasons. Souverain don't need these type of games right now. Danny is getting a chance to win or stay in these OOC games. It also helps his confidence going into conference play. I'm sure that Souverain will get his shot in conference play.

No question he will get his time on the field and I agree with Bytor, it could do more harm then good at this point.

This is what happened to Souverain late in the game. This image was made well behind the line of scrimmage.

Both times he tried to run with the ball he was stuffed for a loss. That picture speaks volumes. He looks like a gazelle being swarmed under by lions. Not a pretty picture for Owl fans. GO OWLS!!!
