On the plus side, he's more mobile and has a stronger arm to throw through the rain. I'd hate to see a Miles pass flutter and then get nabbed for a pick 6.
I'm serious about wanting to see some WildSwede too...could be a good way to generate some offense to give Williams a break but keep him in the game.
It's going to be mostly the same. Mostly short throws and check downs. I'm sure they will take a shot early to try and get Williams some confidence. Hopefully Williams can make a few plays because of his arm strength that Miles can't. If we actually run the ball with success, we can win. If we don't, we lose. If we are counting on our QB to win the game, I don't like our chances. It's really been that simple all season.
I think Williams challenges the line of scrimmage threatening to run which should free some receivers. Miles did not excel in this particular area to say the least. If you know he's not running except away from you and you know he can't beat you with a deep throw, then you bring blitzes all day long. That has been the problem with Miles....he's one dimensional in his passing game and was not a very strong threat to run. Of course our running game has sucked because we can't hrow and they can key on it. It's all intertwined. Hopefully TW is more of a run threat and can throw the ball over the middle. Remember the game when Bonnell started against Cal? We lost but he threw the ball all over the field and had confidence despite not seeing very much action prior to that. Bonnell ran circles around Cyler. If you watched that game and the spark he brought at that moment, that's what I'm hoping for.

Bonnell threw like 4 or 5 picks in that Cal game. He did everything he could to lose the game and needed a hail mary to go to OT.
I expect Williams to be at least as good as miles (hard to get worse) This game like almost every other this season will come down to our defense. If we're relying on our offense to score a ton, we're in trouble

I don't think we win this one.
