    Whomever gives us the best chance to win should play. Why is this so difficult?

    If Browning plays in 2015, he will be worlds better as a true soph in 2016 than he will as a rs-frosh. And he will be better in 2017, and 2018.

    No one has ever said "That guy would be a better player if only he had spent last year on the bench in stead of seeing the field."

    If Lindquist gives us the best chance to win, he should play.

    That is said a lot, and for good reason. Porter, Koehler, Brostek, etc.

    How would they be better by sitting on the bench?

    They would not be.

    They'd have a year in the strength and conditioning program before they got hurt. Also, confidence is a real thing and letting a QB get the playbook down and learn to read a defense before throwing him to the wolves can be beneficial as well.

    I can sort of agree that Browning is likely to be (slightly) better in 2016 if he plays in 2015, but he's likely to be much much better in 2019 than in 2015.

    Miles QBR was only 49 last year.

    Holy crap! It was actually that HIGH? I was thinking more along the lines of 29...

    True freshmen are allowed to participate in the strength and conditioning program, and learn to read defenses too. Really, they are.

    You seem to be debating rs frosh vs true frosh. I am talking about true soph vs rs frosh. There will be nothing "(slightly)" better about Browning true soph vs Browning rs frosh; the difference will be significant. As the saying goes, Nothing prepares you for the NFL, like the NFL.

    Irregardless, it will all be a mute point if Browning is not the qb who gives us the best chance to win this year.
