September 12, 20214 yr Card is not fluid in drop backs and is very flinchy but still rigid. Casey is decisive and urgent but still has a calmness about him. It’s hard to articulate. I’ll bet card can throw the ball further though
September 12, 20214 yr I really like Card but he barely has a pulse. That unflappable demeanor is great if you’re successful but it almost comes across like he’s disconnected which is bad. Thompson while maybe not the better practice QB is clearly there to win.
September 12, 20214 yr Card plays like a dude who doesn't want to make a mistake. He's is extremely hesitant and is not a baller.
September 12, 20214 yr It seems like Card doesn’t have good football instincts. In the first quarter against ULaLa it was 3rd and 7ish and he broke the pocket and could have easily gone for 10+ by just running straight up the field. Instead he turned parallel to the LOS at about 5 yards and got in a foot race towards the sideline with a couple of defenders. He made it in this case, but it just seems like he doesn’t see obvious plays when they’re there. He is also solely responsible for 3 missed TD throws and arguably a 4th TD on the turnover. After that play, they zoomed in on Sark’s face and he asked someone through the headset “was there pressure or something?” Card has no pocket presence and just looks unnatural moving around with the ball.
September 12, 20214 yr Yep start Casey. I wanted him to start this season. And even last week Casey looked more poised imo.
September 12, 20214 yr It should have been Casey's job to lose. Two years more experience and development is an advantage...especially if we're talking about just year 1 of a new coaching staff and system. Starting a freshman/RS QB is not ideal unless you have a really great team around him already and/or he is an elite recruit/prospect. Ehlinger started for 4 years so that QBs like Casey could afford to sit and not be rushed onto the field. Even if you like Card better long-term, it is better to have Casey get through the next 1-2 years so that Card can sit and develop before being expected to take over.

September 12, 20214 yr Gotta be Casey imo. Cards confidence is shot to hell at this point. Roll w Casey and see where it takes you. He's a better fit for this shit OL anyway.

September 12, 20214 yr Casey is a gamer. The decision is already made. We’ll just see when Sark announces it.

September 12, 20214 yr I wonder if he has an attitude because a clearly inferior qb is starting in front of him because who knows... maybe he doesn't kiss sarks ass enough?

Fuck. Just what we need. I had a feeling that dude wasn't going to just say ok I'll have to keep proving myself. That's great that he's being a bitch (allegedly).
September 12, 20214 yr I am really hesitant to crown a guy who came in and had success when the game was already out of reach, and QB play was not the reason we lost tonight, but I’d give Casey the start against Rice and Tech. Karic and Conner need to get some run as starters on the O-line as well. Sadly, I’m not sure we have anyone better waiting in the wings on D
September 12, 20214 yr Casey with the “I’m transferring” after tonight might be the sweetest fuck you ever.
September 12, 20214 yr Current QB controversy kind of reminds me of David Ash vs Case McCoy. One has better measurables and probably a better long term upside, while the other has more "moxie" but not as much as arm strength. Both QBs that we have on the roster right now appear to be better than those two, but it seems like it's in part a similar dilemma. Casey should at least get a chance to start, but I have a feeling that Sark's pride gets in the way and he sticks with Card.

QB is main reason we lost. defense sucked, but was holding its own the first half before running out of gas card was a complete disaster.

September 12, 20214 yr You could actually see Casey methodically going through his progressions like he is taught. Card looked always on the verge of panic.

I will put some blame on the offensive playcalling in the first half and the shitty OL play when we tried to run the ball. But Card was a frozen child out there.

Pass protection was bad. Run blocking was bad. WRs were bad. QBs couldn't throw. We couldn't tackle. Our secondary got beat. Our defensive line got mauled. We played undisciplined. Our game planning and coaching was bad. Casey has earned the start going forward, but we didn't lose that game because of Hudson: we lost that game because we were awful.

Anime overtime loss to the thieves. First year staff with covid? Don’t get me wrong fucj face had to go as recruiting went south but he was going to be 9-3 with a brand new staff.
