My only concern is other coaches would have let their backups in games to "just see what they could do" or "add a different spark". It is very common for coaches to do this who are losing games and the QB is clearly struggling.
Dooley REFUSES to even think of letting another QB in the game...
What are the stats on sacks? Look, whatever Ross's numbers are, he's not getting it done. No, he's not alone because there are lots of positions that aren't getting it done. Unfortunately for him, his position is the most important on the field. I'm not saying he shouldn't start, I'm just saying that we need to get some other guys in as well. Cameron should get at least 2 series against NMSU. Their pass rush is soft and it'd be a great game to get him some experience.
Dooley and crew can't continue to do the same thing and expect different results.

He put Colby Cameron in at the end of the Nicholls State game when things were well under control. Didn't he have issues even holding on to the snap?
I don't know. I can see that he only threw three passes. Junk time PT is great, but it isn't a good gauge for how a player will perform in a normal game situation. One series isn't enough for a QB to get into the groove of the offense.Originally Posted by zharkins
I'm hoping we'll give someone else a legitimate chance to play this weekend...it's the perfect time.

Yes put another QB in with starters! That would make a difference... I would think. Its hard to judge when a back up is put in with 3rd string.
You have to admit that that the majority of Ross' completions are VERY short throws. He has yet to have shown that he can be consistently accurate with his deep or mid-range passes. That's what was so disturbing about the Nevada performance--he looked as though he CANNOT make those throws. He can all the time in the world, but if he can't make the throw--it doesn't matter.

My question is do you think that is because the WRs can't run better longer routes or because the OL can't get enough protection?
I find myself agree that Jenkins isn't getting the job done but I am not ready to argue any other QB other than Doak can do any better right now. And I don't see any way we pull the redshirt on Doak.
The throws I'm referring to happened with our receivers BEHIND the defenders (by a couple of steps) and Ross threw it in FRONT of the defenders (by several yards). The ball was floated out there and was simply poorly placed. Personally, I don't think it's as much a matter of arm strength as I do mechanics. Ross tends to wind up on his longer throws. If he has to throw quickly, he can't get it out there. In the Spring, I noticed Cameron has the arm strength to "flick" the ball on a line. I'm interested in seeing Colby make some more long throws.
Oh...okay. So, let the record show, YOU and JUICE think everything is FINE with our QB.(What in the world do people like this possibly do for a living? It's obvious they aren't results oriented!)

Why would you pull the red shirt off DR? Why wouldn't you AT LEAST see if the other QB's can play FIRST??? Geeez....

So what you are saying is he is better than Zac Champion?? Or Donald Allen??
Congrats, lets give him the Heisman.

Tebow 309 net yards rushing for 5 td's/777 yards passsing for 7 td's/2 ints/ 55 of 84
Jenkins 3 net yards rushing 0 td's/888 yards passing for 3 td's/3 ints/ 78 of 131
This is a silly discussion.
Cameron was terrible when he got in against Nicholls, he could not throw the ball better than Jenkins in any world. Give Jenkins some confidence, let Doak red shirt so we can have him for longer. Throwing in a new quarterback will not turn things around overnight.
