    Your disdain of Locker clouds your judgement here

    Locker in ‘16 with this team gives us a lot least a puncher’s chance against Bama

    Locker in ‘17 wins the P12 rather easily

    I don't have disdain for Locker. I love the kid. I'm probably the most pro Locker/Jesus guy on this bored. But he was never a good QB. He was wildly inaccurate. He didn't make good decisions.

    Forget winning the national title, Locker would have never started a game for Petersen save maybe in 2014. Pete values two things in QB's above all else - accuracy and ability to grasp the offense. Locker would have failed at both.

    Please give me some examples of really bad decisions he made
    I'll go. The entire Holiday Bowl against Nebraska lol
    Also ran for close to 100 yards and won the game
    Didn't think you'd want to bring wins and losses into this discussion.

    In situations where Locker has the opportunity to tie or win the game ... he wasn’t that bad

    Pretty sure Browning would have literally died if that happened to him.

    I bought that Jersey.

    Locker could have been a tremendous playmaker at QB in the right system. That system wasn't Sark's offense and it sure isn't Petersen's. He would have been great in a Malzahn, Meyer, or Bill Snyder offense. Assuming that offense also had the OL to go with it and not the Willingham dregs he was playing behind.

    Why do you hate Chip Kelly?

    I really think that offense would have been perfect. Small playbook. Move fast, play on instincts, make limited number of decisions, huge threat as a runner. Locker at Oregon under Chip may have won a natty. Not under any UW coach ever.

    I just remember being frustrated as Locker would run into a sack rather than running for a first down when the rush broke through

    He was no better than Browning in pocket presence

    Locker had a big tool box and no clue how to use them IMO

    He's right:

    T minus 3...2...1 until someone equates that with Browning against Utah.

    Agree. He also played badly enough early in a lot of games that he didn't have the shot to tie or win the game late (which he was actually good at).

    Again, the polar opposite of Browning.
