QB/RB combo means more than just how good they were as individuals.

Maybe it was Gary's system but the combination of what those two could do (as a pair) to a defense is only rivaled by Taysom/Jamal on that list imo.

I honestly can't pick. There are valid arguments for any of those.

there is definitely a no brainer though and the votes show that.

The Combo that won a National Championship?

Agreed: Staley was a great back, but Doman was nowhere near our best QB

This is my second choice

Talent? Taysom/Jamaal. Career together? Max/Harvey. Single season? Doman/Staley

Agreed. I'd love to have seen Taysom and Jamal with the O-Line that Detmer had!

Just thinking the same thing. Thanks Bronco/Anae for GFGH lightweight Oline!!!

Remember watching Detmer have 5 - 10 seconds just sitting in the pocket? Wow!

Taysom/Jamaal will always be in the "what could have been" box

If Doman/Staley had a defense, that would have been the best team in BYU history

Who could stop Robbie Bosco and Lakei Heimuli?

McMahon and ______

If you're talking combo, then McMahon/Hamilton should be on the list. Waymon

Yeah there were a few more I was thinking about adding

Dynasty1

8/20/19 11:27am

Young and Lane would have been a great add. Two future NFL players. 1984 was

mrphotogenic

8/20/19 11:30am

Yeah but while Lane did play pro he wasn’t a huge producer at BYU

Dynasty1

8/20/19 11:31am

Lane was a pretty vital player. From the Deseret News:

Zack Wilson and Ty'son Williams.

So let it be written. So let it be done.

Best I would say Doman/Staley. My favorite: Taysom/JW

cruiserhead

8/20/19 11:32am

Should be Taysom and Jamaal

Ham

8/20/19 12:13pm

I was just going to say Taysom. He played both.

Who were the QBs with Todd Christensen and Matt Belini?

8/20/19 1:37pm

Beck/Brown in my opinion. If I was putting together a team and had to choose

8/20/19 1:53pm

Valid, and I agree with your answer when you frame it that way.

McMahon and Vai Sikahema if you count punt returns. They were awesome!
