I wasnt one saying that BUT you can definitely be the best qb in the nation and not be an early 1st round qb in NFL draft.

Those are two very different categories.

...... i thought about that before I posted this. I actually agree.... But I still wanted to say what I said lol

I'm not sure he's a better College QB than Ward either.

He's more accurate, but they both have their strengths and weaknesses. I think Ward sees the field better than Mensah does.

You have forgotten some of the absolutely idiotic plays Cam Ward made that Mensah would never dream of making...e.g. I'll never forget that INT against Cal - that decision was straight out of middle school football.

Both are great. I would take Mensah in college. Ward as great as he was would put us in bad spots from time to time with carelessness. Again it’s been beautiful to go from Ward to Beck to Mensah.

We are indeed a very blessed and spoiled fanbase.

I thought his brain won this game as much as anything else.

Duke was content to play two high, muddy the middle of the field, and play man on the outside. So Mensah waited some plays out, let the defense drift, and spit the ball out to backs in wide open spaces. We often complain about the lack of RB screens (we did run one today to Fletcher and it was disjointed and Mensah threw high), but our backs had a combined 110 yards receiving today. That’s all on Mensah spitting the ball out to the perimeter and the one to Mallory was yet another improvisation where he found an open athlete in space. Exactly what you ask your QB to do.

Mensah makes drop back football as/more effective than the quick scripted garbage that eats our defense alive most of the time lol - Mensah is an OC's dream of a QB as Dawson can call almost anything he wants anywhere on the field.

He's otherworldly. So was Cam. No need to put one or the other down when both are the best two we have had since Kenny.

Bad. Some worse than others.

Indiana is still 8-1 with horrendous QB play because they are well coached and play good D.

We have to score 30+ every week to win.

See the difference?

We're 9-1 wtf are you talking about? lol

Indiana almost lost to Nebraska if not for an epic collapse

If you take away any team's starting QB in the country they are going to be way worse.

Look at Ohio State

We are because we have Mensah.

Of course any team would be worse without their starting QB.

But there is a difference in HOW MUCH worse.
