Interesting article on the backup QBs

I’m pulling for Cade because I think he has the better brain and that’s what we need. I think Williams is the best of the three and if we give him a shirt he can be the qb of the future or beat Weldon out for the job down the line.

Why does Weldon have the better brain? I would love to know how your brain came to that conclusion.

Williams is the best of the three? Why did your brain think that and what have you seen that brings you to that conclusion?

“He came in with blond hair, blue eyes and looked different than everybody else did,” Earle said. “I told him he was going to have to do something to earn their respect because they were going to try him. Next thing you know, I hear a ruckus in the locker room. I never really knew what happened, but all of a sudden I saw everybody walking behind Cade Weldon like ducks in a row. He went and gained everybody’s respect, let’s just say that.”

I totally agree with this. Outcome of game wouldn’t have changed, but a spark of hope or something going into the next 4 games obviously culminating with fsu) wouldve been great.

( Hope it happens soon.)

Back when Schnelly was head coach he had a regular practice of putting in the backup QB for one series in the second quarter.

Richt probably came in for a lot of games between '79 and '81, while Jim Kelly sat for a series.

The whole idea was to get the backup a little experience with game conditions in case he had to come in.

Maybe he should start doing that again.
 
I think that all 3 have the talent to be good to very good and just maybe great P5 starters at QB. For the millionth time, these guys need live reps and Savannah St provides the perfect opportunity for these kids to get their feet wet and get their first taste of college football. Savannah St at home presents these 3 with a way to hone their skills, test their knowledge of the playbook, work on timing with the recievers etc.....Rick should know this and treat this game accordingly. Part of that means sitting Rosier. Not necessarily because he's benching him but because there is no tangible value to be accrued from playing Rosier against these scrubs. Rosier isn't going to become a better player because he throws for 400 yards and 5 TDs against this hopelessly overmatched opponent. 1st and 2nd string QBs each get 1qtr and a half and Williams gets the whole 4th quarter. Let the auditions commence!

This is stupid. OP’s point is perry’s great, weldon’t great, Williams too.

But rosier starts. And LSU was up on us 33-3 on us.

Feel as good as you want to about your backup QBs. I’ll note that Richt didnt start any of them.

You are going off coach speak we already know that to be proven untrue. We haven’t seen him play how can he let us down??

You can’t speak truth to our fan base. They minds is already made. Reasoning and rational thinking don’t work..let’s see what Perry and Cade do this week. My whole thing is if they ain’t ready and couldn’t beat out malik, dont hand them the keys..that whole “let them take their lumps” doesn’t work. Imagine if a kid like jacory had a chance to RS and sit for two years. Unless a kid is mature enough to lead at that position I Wouldn’t play them. But if Malik is stil the best option, just squeeze what ever juice we can get from this season. Which I think is a 11-1 or 10-2 reg season even with malik..I think ppl in or fanbase wrongly think one of those kids are the missing piece. They don’t see the full picture. We don’t yet have a nationalchip type depth. We dont have a great oline yet. If malik is the best option (and we gonna see from how these young cats command the o this week) roll with him
 
Malik’s HS coach spit some beautiful quotes about him a few weeks ago too. Perry’s HS corch should have taught him some basics instead of standing around admiring him.
 
They were all going to say something good, though it's funny that Perry's coach praised him on things that are his biggest weaknesses. Also, the Weldon anecdote speaks to a lot of what we've heard about how the players on this team have felt that over the past year he's the leader they want.

I agree also if Richt thinks Rosier is the best option u prevent him from being injured. I remember one year stephen morris or kaaya got banged up in one of these games. Play the young guys.

Perry couldn't even read defenses when he got here so anything his coach says is irrelevant to me.
 
Completely irreconcilable with Coach Richt's decisions on QB play thus far. Not saying who's right just that one side is very, very wrong. We'll see this soon enough, hopefully.
 
The best qb is he who can get the ball to the open receiver the quickest.It entails havin the natural instincts to read a defense and make a quick decision.You also need a quick release,strong arm,and the ability to move in the pocket and run if necessary.The qb who has best demonstrated these attributes in practices and the scrimmages based on personal insight and conversations with those attending is Jarren Williams even though Perry and Weldon have also flashed their talents.
Players in real games either excel,are mediocre,or fold like a tent.We need to see Perry,Weldon,and Williams in the next four games to see who is the gamer for this year and the future.
