Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
If Eason started at QB, would the result have been any different?
Or is this mostly/all on Pete and his offense, regardless of who is playing QB?
Obviously, control for other variables like prep time, etc.

In short, maybe Eason would have done better running the offense. Maybe he's not a selfish cunt like Browning.
Words is that Eason is one of only about 10 guys with an arm like his. The other 9 are in the NFL.
The issue with this is that football isn't played on paper. Myles is (was 😥) the one player that was a true game breaker for the offense. How many times should he have been stopped for a loss of 3 but turned it into something positive? He makes things happen by being a fucking baller, not by going off of rules drawn up in the film room.
I think Eason forces OSU to play straight up honest defense, and in turn allows Myles to do his thing because he's actually given the opportunities.
No one knows if Eason can throw accurate consistently (his freshman year wasn't promising), but I'm damn sure when he did throw accurately he would have gotten the ball there before the defense got there.
That and he could have actually thrown the ball down the field.
I'm cautiously optimistic.
If you get a first down, THEN the risk is lower for starting to pass the ball.
I fucking love him.
fork's so fucking right, you know
