Teq, I originally dismissed your analysis bc of Browning's performance in the spring game. He may have been playing with the 2s and 3s against the #1 offense though. But you may be onto something.
Goff made a huge leap from year 1 to 2. His QBR went from 50 to 75. Even Sefo's went from 54 to 60. Miles' was a fucking 49! Fuck, if we had Sefo last year and a 60 QBR we might be 11-3. Price's was a 66 in 2013.
Playing Browning this year will potentially give us a huge benefit in 2016. And look at the schedule…after Boise there are three reasonable games to get him some experience… Sac St, Utah St, Cal. -
Glad the numbers back it up Chest ...
I'd like to say that I did some major research to come to that conclusion but I didn't ...
The eye test led us all to know that Miles was a fucking disaster. The numbers you are showing backs that up big time. Sefo was much improved last year but he also probably was one of the worst 3-4 QBs in the conference last year. And when you think about it in those terms, that really paints how fucking terrible Miles was.
Throwing Browning in against Boise could be a bit of a challenge ... but it also provides the opportunity for Lindy to prove whether he has it or not. Win (or at minimum be competitive) against Boise and he lays claim to the job for a bit. Lose badly and you give a soft landing for Browning against Sac St leading into the conference season. -
Brad Kaaya's numbers as a true frosh at Miami are a better goal. His effeciency numbers I believe were top25 nationally, and his team wasn't complete shit like Goff, and he played a tuff schedule, and he didn't enroll until fall, and his mom is Felicia from Friday.

I was going to give you a simple upvote for making a good point about Kaaya. But that terrific run-on sentence earned you an awesome. UCLA academis being put to good use.

My thoughts exactly. Lindy gets Boise to prove he belongs. If he chokes there, take off that shirt Browning.Tequilla said:Glad the numbers back it up Chest ...

Cal went 1-11 in 2013. You throw a lot when you're getting your ass kicked every game.
Everyone agrees Goff made a quantum leap between his freshman and sophomore seasons. What's missing is the evidence that he wouldn't have been just as good coming off a redshirt season. Lots of QBs flourish as redshirt freshmen; Manziel, Mariota and Winston come to mind. There must be some reason why most QBs get redshirted.

People also seem to forget that goff got hurt and needed shoulder surgery.

There is. It's an upperclassman QB who is better.TTJ said:Cal went 1-11 in 2013. You throw a lot when you're getting your ass kicked every game.
