Who SHOULD start at QB vs Virginia

[Damiencane86]

Give them both a half. Never saw today's game so no eye test to gauge but the opponent was laughable so we'll see how each look vs UVA.

 

[Jedi Master Cane]

It's not even close IMO, 13 > 9. Garcia's got a lot more upside. I honestly don't think TVD threw the ball more than 5 yards past the lane of scrimmage.

So with all that said I fully expect for Manny to start TVD...which is good because that reduces our chances of actually winning the game.

I thought TVD threw the ball better. Garcia was late/under threw some passes but looked much better moving around.

Somebody needs to post some lower floor / higher ceiling comments.

Matocha vs Rizk looks like it's shaping up to be an epic battle for the back up to the former backups.

 

[frostycane]

I think you are confusing check downs with designed plays and him going to his primary read

Whatever you want to call it. When he pushed it down field I didn’t think the arm strength was there. And he’s definitely not athletic enough to make up for that with the read option run game.

 

[Cane&Abel]

The bigger question …. Who is finishing the game if it’s a tight one ????!!

His first incomplete pass was a deep route dropped by Wiggins that should have been a TD.

Okay.. as much of a "Garcia me" fan I am.... I think it's only right to have it be TVDs job until he loses it

This mentality is the reason we suck.

One pass out of 11. Absolutely phenomenal from an air yards perspective. He's a conservative dump off type of QB. I see a **** of a lot more upside in Garcia.

If the Canes beat Virginia with backup QBs, I think it’s time to turn to the youth movement for the rest of the season

Did you not see the dime he threw to Wiggins that was dropped? TVD has plenty of arm

 

[dycane]

I don’t know. I just know that the coaches will make the wrong decision.

They both had moments, but Garcia’s ball looks better IMO.

TVD looked more comfortable

I did see it. But if you can’t throw the deep out, which during the review he definitely stepped into it, then your pretty limited.
Just my opinion.

it won't be. Our close games are not vs p5 school.

Naw I think you don't understand what I mean. Both QBs looked good in our scrimmage and Both looked good today. As of this moment, neither has pulled away from the other. In that case, you go with the more "experienced" one. At the end of the day tho, I do think Garcia has way more potential but I want to see how TVD looks in a real game before I throw him on the bench for a true freshman.

 

[Jedi Master Cane]

Start TVD Manny.....I want Garcia unspoiled for the next head coach.

Minus a drop td tvd was perfect , now let’s imagine if the stats were reversed , and the opinions.
