I'm not worried about Haener beating out Eason

This thing might stretch past the EWU game but ultimately Eason is going to start.

I am worried that Eason isn't nearly as good as most of us want to believe he is.

Obviously I think he's better than Brownsocks and the walking turnover, but if he was the stud that his recruiting hype suggests he would have put Haener away in the spring or at worst the first week of summer.

The reality is Eason is most likely exactly what we saw at Georgia - a big, strong armed QB with serious accuracy issues. And probably not the highest football IQ.

He'll make opponents defend the whole field and probably have a handful of NTD, BB throws. But he's not the QB savior we've been waiting for.

ISHIT.

    I think pete has an affinity for players brownsox or hanear that are extremely prepared and not physically gifted. Eason never really had to prepare that hard because his physical gifts made up for it. But to give the job to hanear because Eason doesn’t have a PhD understanding of your offense is fucking stupid. From what I have seen his freshman year, Eason did not fold under pressure like hanear or brownsox. To me that is an great upgrade.

    He's not giving the job to Haener.

    I hope he is not. There are reporters that hanear is throwing picks every day, but Eason has not been named the starter.

    We don't need a messiah QB to win big. We just need a QB that can move the sticks and score some points once in a while when we get to the red zone. I mean shit...if the 2018 team was like 40th percentile in red zone scoring efficiency instead of last in Div 1, we would have gone 12-0 and made the CFP.

    All we need out of Skinny is to be an decent upgrade from Browning. Add in some improvement in the kicking game and we're going to skull fuck a lot of teams.

    But get skull fucked by likes of bama or Clemson

    I don't think its obvious that Eason is better than Browning. I think Eason will be the starter, at least for most of the year, but there's definitely a chance he struggles.

    Eason could be all pro and Petersen would still fuck with him

    The Cal game will reveal all

    If Haener were to start against Cal, I really don't think we score more than 13 pts. Cal only lost 2 starters on D. They are going to be ready for us week 2.

    I happen to knwo that one of yor quarterbacks tried to come play for Coach Tucker in the spring. Peterson is a very unethical coach and prevented this. I think that the quaterbacks name was Surmon.

    CoogReaper wants his schtick back

    I think you misunderestimate how bad Browning was.

    Agee with your second sentence.

    I agree. Eason is no Trevor Lawrence. He also doesn't need to be. We've been able to run the ball very effectively with a limited QB who simply could not hit certain parts of the field. Defenses are going to have a lot more respect for Eason simply because he can make any throw at any given time, albeit inconsistently. I think that'll help our run game more than anything, especially in the red zone where we regularly sputtered last year (again, mostly because of Browning's limitations).

    Eason being capable of throwing 50 yards alone is a huge improvement. Opposing DB's had no respect for the deep ball

    He’s not going to be great and our offense is FS. I wish we didn’t have to wait for Huard to get great QB play, but that’s what seems likely. If Huard isn’t great, we are fucked and it will get ugly.

    My hope for the future in spite of Pete's FS potato head offense, is that, at least, most of the guys in the QB room moving forward- i.e., Eason, Sirmon, Morris, etc - don't have quite the same physical limitations as Browning.

    If we are bad on offense this year, Bush has to go. I would put more blame on Pete, but changes will have to be made. No more, “We are so close, assignment errors, etc.” It has to be blown up if it’s bad.

    The offense has been good one year out of 5 for Pete here. Oregon State sucks, but Jonathon Smith has a good offense there and I just saw he had multiple skill guys on the preseason All PAC 12 teams. Pete has made good adjustments to every problem but his offense. I’m getting tired of it.
    It's fucking maddening @RoadDawg55 . Pete gets A- to A+ grades on being a CEO, player development, Defense, leveling up in recruiting, etc. But the offense is D - and not championship caliber. We're gonna find out in a hurry how much of this is Pete's system and how much was Browning. Tick, tick, tick...
    So how much is pete’s buyout after next year. Also I hear urban is tanned rested and ready
