UGA and Ohio State were not.

He's got all the tools to be great, but let's not anoint him just yet.

Ignoring full starts and focusing on a handful of snaps where the defense knows what's coming is a choice.

It won’t take much to be better than Quinn that’s for sure. 
 

He also out performed Quinn during the game Quinn got benched. Quinn should have never seen the field again from then on. That completely fucked our season.

Quinn is in the same tier as Simms and Major to me.  Good college QBs with flaws you’re unlikely to win a championship with.  Sam had flaws to.  I think we could have won a championship with him this season though with this supporting cast.  More of a gamer and better in red zone. 

This is fair. Contrary to all the fat-figured shit-talking ingrates on this board, Quinn was a good QB. He wasn’t great, nor was he “mediocre” or a “pussy” — he was solid, with flashes of absolute brilliance and total discombobulation. He also leaves us in the top five of practically every statistical category for Texas QBs.

Why is it important for you to convince internet strangers of your opinion? Obviously this is a message board, but there is a difference in posting an opinion and sitting there for years trying to convince a bunch of random people of your opinion. Maybe I guess I wish I had that energy.

you don’t seem to be able to grasp the concept of an online sports message board. the literal purpose of this entire website is discussion and debate.

as for why people care- if you and someone else disagree with each other from a place of respect- aka what you see every day on the basketball, baseball, and soccer boards- then at the end of the day you get some right wrong, you get some wrong, and the discussion moves on. 

but when you can’t disagree without it instantly devolving into choosing sides, covering yourself in warpaint, and fire bombing the villages of everyone who doesn’t think exactly the way you do- aka the football forum- then yeah, people aren’t just gonna sit around and take abuse for years on end and then just say, “ho hum 🤷🏼‍♂️” and let it die when they’re ultimately proven right. there’s a natural human desire to say, “hey asshole, remember when you called me fat, told me that nobody loved me, negged my last 10, posts, and then tried to have me banned (all real examples from one single day of me posting on this thread in november of 2023) because my football opinion was different from yours? you remember that?!?!” yeah well it turns out that you were wrong, and it would be pretty great if you would be an adult and apologize, admit you were wrong, be better in the future, or best of all, do all of the above!

this dynamic where, “we get to shit on you for years but you don’t get to say a word when you’re ultimately proven right” is just an insane thing to perpetuate or normalize. that has never been how it works, and we’re not starting today.

Yeah, I thought Quinn should’ve stayed benched after Georgia, and it’s not because I was sold that Arch was a sure-fire better solution (frankly, Georgia dominated both our QBs along with our line).  It’s because I absolutely thought this was a championship-caliber Longhorn team, I had seen enough of Quinn to doubt he could carry the team all the way, maybe Arch could, and the time to find out was the remaining schedule before the playoff.  I didn’t think you wanted to be in a situation where Quinn was benched in the playoff asking Arch to carry you with less reps.  
 

Regarding Arch: I worry that the expectations are way too high.  It feels like anything short of a Heisman and/or a natty is a failure, and those are obviously extremely lofty for a team that just saw 4 pass rushers and 3 O-linemen get drafted

These coaches watched the qb room all year. It'll blow people's minds to learn Quinn was better than Arch in 2024, but folks would rather believe Sark was afraid of being kneecapped by the Southlake mafia. If that room was slightly better in 2024, we're probably champions. It might be better in 2025, might not.

It definitely played a factor I think. It’s hard to take that part out of the equation totally. A lot was put into Quinn and not just money. He was a heisman favorite at the start of the season with many “experts” and people here saying he would be a first round pick after the season but he regressed in his downfield game and footwork due to injury or not.  Sark knew it would have totally tanked him if he benched him and thought he could change the offense to fit Quinn’s strengths and dink and dunk and still win.  They are very different quarterbacks, short game with Ewers was very good, with Arch it’s going to be a much more of a gunslinging offense.

I don't think it'll be gunslinginng at all. I think it'll be a mobile pocket modern pro style offense.

In the form of we will be passing downfield a lot more with less screens and three yard outs, it will feel like gunslinging vs last year.

Sam with this roster talent would have been insane. He had 26 TDs to 5 INTs throwing to Josh Moore and Brennan Eagles. You think we are failing to score on the 1 yard line with Sam back there??

Quinn had insane rosters to work with. 30 draft picks over 3 years. And yet he never really put up great numbers or led super efficient offenses. The guy is a pretty good college QB but he probably ends up as a "failure" who transfers out if he played for Herman.

I think Sam would score from the 1. But the fact that we didn’t against Ohio St, has nothing to do with QE. That was on Sark. I remember being surprised when Sam completed a 20-ish yard pass against good coverage. And I was always surprised when Quinn didn’t. Sam ran like a bull and never got hurt. Respect that, but he was never the passer that QE is.

^^^ this is facts. we were calling it out in real time. i cannot count the number of times that people, especially thatguy, would make post after post after post and never once even hint that quinn could possibly be at fault for anything. these are the same claiming that he “led” us to all of our victories the last two years. you said it: anyone who denies this either wasn’t here the past 1-2 years or they just don’t remember.

this is revisionist history at best, and a total fabrication at worst. first off, your use of “quinn haters” says it all. the idea that anyone who is critical of quinn “hates” him or is rooting against him is a mental illness that plagues this forum. the people who were critical of quinn were never the hostile, insulting, combative ones who needed to “dial it back”, and the idea that the pro-QE crowd simply suggested that “the haters dial it back” is laughable:

you guys didn’t “suggest the quinn haters dial it back a bit”, you read spot-on accounts of his poor footwork, poor accuracy, pocket jitters, lack of mobility, inability to move the chains or hit open wr’s, etc, and then *y’all*- as in a shit ton of y’all- would respond to those non-combative, football related posts with anger, and vitriol, and personal insults, and mass neg reps. you guys didn’t “ask the haters to dial it back”, y’all were the very ones needlessly dialing shit up and going apoplectic at any post which that was critical of quinn in the first place. for you to sit here and act like that didn’t happen, or that the QE zealots weren’t the ones being needlessly combative and insulting is wild.

That’s what the school calls it.

 

google the following text:
when to use es for plural

The machine will tell you the following (I bolded and italicized the "-x" reference below):

AI Overview
 
The suffix "-es" is used to form the plural of most nouns that end in "-s", "-x", "-z", "-ch", or "-sh". This is generally done to maintain correct pronunciation and avoid clashing with the sound of the plural "s". 
Here's a more detailed explanation:
  • Pronunciation: The "-es" ending is used to ensure the plural pronunciation is distinct from the singular form, especially with words ending in sounds like /s/, /z/, /ch/, etc.
  • General Rule: Add "-s" to most nouns to make them plural (e.g., "cats," "boxes"). 
  • Exceptions:
    • -o: Many words ending in "-o" add "-s" (e.g., "radios," "tomatoes"), but some add "-es" (e.g., "heroes," "potatoes"). 
    • -s, -x, -z, -ch, -sh: Nouns ending in these letters/letter combinations typically add "-es" to their plural form (e.g., "foxes," "boxes," "churches," "brushes," "classes"). 
    • -y preceded by a consonant: If the singular noun ends in "-y" that is preceded by a consonant, change the "-y" to "-i" and add "-es" (e.g., "baby" becomes "babies").

Well, I often acknowledged ares where Quinn needed to improve.  Tons of us did.  Players are who they are.  I'm wrong every day, and I'm at the top of my field.  I mean, the inability to see shades of gray and just accept that guys are gonna make mistakes is mind-boggling.

I've always suspected this is amplified because Arch is on the bench.  Talk about "backup QB is always the Texas favorite" syndrome.  Never mind what the Manning family wanted for Arch in terms of time on the 40 acres.

Quinn is and was better than Sam on this and every planet. And I like Sam. 

You have bumped your head. Quinn is a better pure passer and may be better in the NFL. Sam is a much better college qb.

Sam vs Quinn is interesting. I’m envisioning the SuperQB, QuinSam. They are almost perfect complements to each other.

leader - Sam

difficult mid routes - Quinn

long ball - Sam

accuracy (except long ball) - Quinn

durability - Sam

read defenses - Quinn

They are very different QB’s. With Sam’s difficulty in accuracy, I’m surprised he’s still in the nfl. With Quinn’s lack of durability and long ball, I won’t be too surprised if he doesn’t make it in the nfl.

Ok, I've kept my mouth shut but this post touched a nerve.
The way Sark deployed Arch at the end of the season was borderline criminal. He had the epic TD run vs. A&M. After that, just a bunch more designed runs that were an invitation for defenses to absolutely tee off on Manning. It was stupid and dangerous to rely that heavily on his athleticism/strength and run the same shit over and over again. Comes in cold off the bench to run a telegraphed play where defenders want to literally knock him out. 
Seeing the replay of him getting speared and concussed vs. Ohio State was infuriating. Just a huge fuckup by Sark with how he handled Arch after the A&M game. 
 

At this point, I think it was Sark doing that to spark a “run game” and to not have to listen to people ask why Arch wasn’t playing. Just letting him run keeps arch from throwing and making Quinn or Sark look bad.

I didn’t bump my head. I’m just mostly stupid. 
 

Edit: But I’d still take QE against almost any opponent. Last year’s Ohio State might be the one game I’d pick Sam just because of the size and durability. Running QB would have been a huge advantage, but they knocked Arch out completely and Quinn wasn’t going to do it. Sam would have delivered some blows their way.

Draft results as a form of prognostication don't agree. Quinn's long ball passing and health are his #1 and #2 issues. It's the the health concerns that I fear will be Quinn's biggest issue in the NFL. 

Quinn

7th round - Pick 231

Sam 

6th round - Pick 213

Can't blame the guy. He's processing turning down multiple millions of dollars to transfer to Miami or wherever and be the big man on campus starter for another year to have a non guaranteed contract and likely get cut in training camp. Chances are he makes almost nothing this season and ends up slinging it in the UFL next year for $64k. 

Or ends up in Canada. Hope he saved and invested that sweet Texas money wisely

They are very different QB’s. With Sam’s difficulty in accuracy, I’m surprised he’s still in the nfl. With Quinn’s lack of durability and long ball, I won’t be too surprised if he doesn’t make it in the nfl. 

 

Sam’s accuracy wasn’t great, but the size and length of Collin Johnson & Lil’Jordan Humphrey, plus the speed of Devin Duvernay boosted Sam’s completion percentage and helped move the team downfield when his throws went haywire. The same can be said for X and AD taking off like rockets to catch Quinn’s moon balls that kept sailing for what felt like an eternity.

I don’t recall a time when Sam’s throws put his receivers in a position to get completely rocked the way Quinn’s did waiting for the ball to hit the target. Quinn’s style of play is difficult to translate at the next level. He’s not just putting himself in danger, he’s also putting his receivers at risk. Say what you want about Bond and his serious shit, but he got hurt in the OU game while he was wide open trying to catch one of Quinn’s floaters that turned into an INT.

A lot of people say Quinn just turtled under pressure and fell to the ground. Sam’s version of turtling was throwing those idiotic INTs vs Maryland and USC. The difference I saw was that Sam’s body language never wavered. He never shrugged like Quinn on the field before walking to the sideline after a shit play against Georgia. Sam was locked in even when Herman was chewing gum and blowing his bubbles on the sideline when we all knew the game was out of reach. It seems like throughout the whole Herman era, Sam was the adult in the room.

It really bugs me that Sark supposedly told Sam to kick rocks even though he had another year of eligibility, but Sark must’ve felt it was time to move on. I just don’t see how having Casey and Hudson as the only vets in the QB room was the best option when the whole team was shit because of Herman being an egomaniac. The negative recruiting from the inside and out was real and the culture around Texas was in the toilet with pee charts.

I can’t wrap my head around how there has been little to no improvement in offensive PPG under Sark while he is supposedly a QB guru. I’ve been hard on Quinn but I think a lot of it has to do with Sark and his decision making. Knowing that Bert is dogshit from one side of the field and still running plays to that side is what makes me ragey. I feel like that’s why Quinn looks like shit sometimes with the offense. Sark doesn’t know how to play to the strength of the team and it exacerbates the issues Quinn already has on an individual level.

Quinn was given a great offense but clearly held back and played timid to avoid hits. Even if it was smart at times to throw away a dead play, there’s also times where ya gotta make a play. He wouldn’t step up in the pocket or step into throws. Frustrating to watch. 
 

I’d rather have watched Trey Owens go if Manning wasn’t ready. Somebody who can run the offense and make a play rather than panic when the rush is coming. 
 

this same shit was happening all season and showed up worse against a good defense. 
 

1:29 doesn’t step into the throw because the rush, slow ball there not on time, gets picked. 

3:14 holds the ball, zero pocket awareness, stands still until sacked

12:00 doesn’t step into the throw, tosses it out to get picked again 

14:00 panics when he sees the blitz and throws side arm to get batted down

 

 

There’s 20 highlights of our defense playing their ass off to keep us in this one. 
 

We would’ve won this game with fucking swoopsdozer offense the way our defense was playing.

I don't have time to get in a pissing contest over draft spots. Let me know how he looks when he sees the field. I will be around. I am not going anywhere.

lol 

just admit you are wrong at some point

Nobody here wanted Quinn to suck and then get picked in the 7th round, but that’s how it went.

With Tua’s brain being mush and Daniel Jones being…Jones, there’s a good chance Quinn starts at some point next season.

Can we stop it with Quinn starts next season. He has a higher likelihood of being cut than starting next season.

Oh yeah. Zach Wilson.

Y'all talking about his milfy mom, and I just realized I was conflating him with Jake Fromm, and his mom and her tits.
