One elite QB away

Seeing what Sam Darnold did, I can't help but think we may be just one elite QB away from being able to compete on almost even ground against the likes of BAMA.

BTW, I wonder Browning ever led a team to victory in the last 2 minutes of a game when his team is behind? I knew he didn't for UW so far (the Zona game doesn't count because we were not behind and Lavon and Pattis did most of the work on that last drive). My guess is he never did in high school either. Darnold did it, Eason did as a freshman. Fuck, even Troy randomly accurate Williams did it against USC -- not that I ever want to have him than Jake for our team but in crunch time, he sure showed more balls than Browning.

    If only we had the Pac-12 player of the year

    Jake benefited from having Ross around. Ross made our whole offense look potent. With him leaving we will average 10 points less.

    I'd rather have a pair of 6'4 310 pound road grading Guards, a pair of 6'2 230 pound healthy thumpers at linebacker, and a pair of beastly edge assassins. Then we can upgrade Brownsocks.

    As much of a shitty recruiter Chris Strausser is, I think he will develop Wattenberg and Roberts (please god let this be true). We might have decent OL next year, if those 2 are our starting guards.

    Victor and Keishawn will be back.

    I curious to see how our edge guys develop. From the pictures/videos I have seen, Potoa'e, Warren, Rice, and Pulu looked physically ready to play that position (whether they can play is another story).

    You might get your wish

    Roberts and Watty might turn out ok but I'm looking for the guy who has to stop and adjust his package every few steps he takes because he's got swag and his balls are so big. The kind of guy who walks in the first day, smiles in the Lockeroom and then goes out and rips your tits off and takes a swing at you if you get offended.

    He's the kind of guy you motherfuck in practice but when the games start, you're glad he's on your side. He's the guy who punches opposing DL and LBs in the dick and doesn't get caught. He's the guy who knows when to take selective cheap shot at the opposing DL who ran past one of our younger lineman, sacked our QB, and is dancing around in the backfield. He's smart enough to do it early in the game so it doesn't hurt his team.

    I'm not sure that guy is on our roster today.
