good as everybody thinks he is. Maybe that's why Taysom is the QB right now.

I guess we'll find out next year, because the schedule isn't any easier next year.

After taking in all the punditry, my ambivalance is leaning towards...

You know that David Nixon is Taysom's BIL, right?

oh well let me just re write everything I just wrote then

He is still correct. Film tells the story.

And I would agree with the idea, except Taysom isn't doing a very good job of

Lance71

9/19/16 5:14pm

He is still faster than Tanner, which is the point. The penetration is coming in way too fast.

Turnpike Lane

9/19/16 5:16pm

Straight line faster, true. But Tanner does not get enough credit for his

Lance71

9/19/16 5:24pm

Also he's the only qb that can throw on the move.

This is TIC? You don't think Tanner can throw on the move?

losing top 3 OL, plus new OC, plus losing top WR's is a recipe for disaster on O

nashty

Koroma isnt top 3?

byubyu

9/19/16 5:30pm

I don't really agree about receivers. That's not a recipe for disaster.

Taysom's body language was very telling to me. I am concerned.

idacoug

9/19/16 5:20pm

did you hear him after game? first few answers were as curt as i've ever heard

nashty

9/19/16 5:21pm

Yes. He was mad

idacoug

9/19/16 5:24pm

You would be too if you had to play with that o line. He was running for his

rainorsnow

9/19/16 5:26pm

this is just not true. The OL provided more time that we all are giving credit..

My post was TIC

the look on his face to start one second half drive

There is no good reason to start Taysom.

rainorsnow

9/19/16 5:21pm

I have got to agree with this, but I think taysom deserves a few more chances to

idacoug

9/19/16 5:25pm

We see what Taysom looks like with a year off. Why do the same thing to Tanner?

rainorsnow

9/19/16 5:27pm

might as well throw him in now.....that much better for the years ahead.

idacoug

I say we wait until we're 1-6 just to be sure!

How did Tanner perform when our receivers got locked up and our oline got

Against Michigan was tough, against Utah he came back and did good.

idacoug

9/19/16 5:56pm

lol not even close. Not. Even. Close

southernfriedcougar

9/19/16 6:00pm

Seems like a level headed response.

whoneedscorners?

9/19/16 6:04pm

Is there anything else to say? Comparing these two to Michigan is hilarious.

southernfriedcougar

9/19/16 6:05pm

The reason we struggled offensively against Michigan is the exact reason

whoneedscorners?

9/19/16 6:08pm

Yeah, except no.

southernfriedcougar

9/19/16 6:11pm

Solid rebuttal again.

whoneedscorners?

9/19/16 6:12pm

Seriously, I don't know what you'd like me or anyone to say.

southernfriedcougar

9/19/16 6:30pm

I'd love to know your background to trust your impressive analysis.

Eye have two I's. That simple

southernfriedcougar

Tanner has never played with JW.

Ash

9/19/16 6:38pm

You mean a year ago, when Tanner had been off his mission for 3 months?

Lance71

9/19/16 6:08pm

Being off a mission for 3 months was going to improve our oline and WR play?

whoneedscorners?

9/19/16 6:09pm

A good QB can make those problems less pronounced. Maybe Tanner just isn't as

Lance71

9/19/16 6:14pm

Did he have Jamaal? Nope. That one little fact escapes CB again and again. smh

Ash

9/19/16 6:38pm

He's wrong. Tanner would and has done just fine with a weak oline. He makes

Rollout?

I'm not so sure Taysom is more mobile than Tanner at this point

ryebrye

9/19/16 7:43pm

Even though TH already has 300 yards more rushing this year than TM had all last

BYU'01

9/19/16 9:19pm

so how about we mitigate that problem, instead of highlighting it then?

macaroni

9/19/16 8:20pm

But with Tanner your short passing game will work because he can hit receivers

Speedy

So you're telling me you're ... all in ... on Taysom?
