Tell me where I can sign up to make over $1M in NIL deals each year while in college like Quinn currently does. And there is no better job in America than being a long-term, career backup QB in the NFL. 
Career backup is a huge drop off from being a 1st round pick. You are saying that as a non football player. You think Quinn's goal is to be some long term backup QB? Absolutely not. But that will be the reality. No way he will process NFL defenses at the speed they play. Not to mention, he can't make those throws consistently.

Quinn has pretty much been handed everything and been coddled. Sat out his senior year at SLC. Gets to Ohio State but is at the bottom of the depth chart, for good reason. He gets here with zero competition. There's a QB that has a much better ceiling behind him and Sark even made the move but went back to him.

None of that will fly in the NFL. He would have been better coming out after last season because this season, exposed a ton of warts in his game for whatever the reason might be.

This is a safe space of shitty, completely unreasonable and inappropriate takes. If you think about it, this is why we’re here.

He’s way better than Kyle McCord or Will Howard, Ryan day is a fuckin idiot lol. Daniel jones, Spencer rattler, Aidan oconnel and cooper rush…all have started games this year. All those guys blow. You’re a shit for brains if you don’t think Quinn can work his way to at least get a chance to start whether by injury or pure arm talent. 1st round is most likely gone but him being a starter is absolutely still there barring a career ending injury.

That PI on Bond in the endzone will hardly ever be called because the defender is making a play on the ball. 

I didn’t think the deep ball was PI because the defender was making a play and hit the ball. Bond wasn’t gonna get it.

The slant though? That was pass interference.

Arch fumbled the ball and gave it to Georgia in Texas territory in his only drive of the game. No OC ever wants to see his QB throw a pass into double coverage that's just bad QB play, Sark wants the correct throw made. Quinn air mailing a deep pass to a wide open receiver on a busted coverage will piss off fans but Arch throwing into double coverage and getting broken up or picked is worse in the eyes of Sark and every single other OC out there.

Throwing into double coverage is not always the wrong thing. First that coverage can be crappy.  There’s always the 3rd and long stuff that a pick is as good as a punt.
 

People laud Ewers for his OU 2022 game.  Two throws were potentially dangerous, but they’re hyped up as “NFL throws.”  
 

Do you remember that throw that Vandy picked off?  Did you realize there was damn near the exact scenario in the Arch video?  You remember how thatguy came in talked about chipping a guy on the way to the flat when it’s QE but adds to a video as negative for arch?  In the Georgia game did you know that Ewers got strip sacked too?

Did you know that independent sources track things like turnover worthy plays?  Guess whose rate is higher?

Hell, you can track the stats down on completion by level.  From 10-20 yards, Ewers is 60th in completion percentage.  48th in depth of target.  The drop % is 18th lowest.  I’m sure he’s just getting an inordinate amount of pressure.  Last year, you could say he was elite in this range.  He’s not this year for whatever reason.

We don’t want to factual or consistent here.  I’m learning that.

Sure. Provided you don't get your brain and body so beaten up you don't end up like so many former players who commit suicide due to CTE.

I think some of you missed the point of that cut-up.

We didn't miss the point. I could spend a whole day editing a lowlight clip of Quinn over 3 years that will make him look just as bad if not worse. But that would be shitty thing to do IMO, and while I'm critical of Quinn, that's below the belt as a Texas fan.

Yes. Reading between the lines he has grade I (microscopic-level tears) sprain of his ankle. It does not make the ankle less stable. It hurts and can lead to enough swelling as a natural response (especially when he is actually playing on it) that it becomes stiffer and even more painful. Wrapping it well before the game and between series and popping a few Advil might be enough to let him function as well as he did before the most recent injury.

I really don't understand this take. Coaches literally do this for training purposes. There is nothing shitty about this because the intent wasn't to be shitty. Y'all have no issues wasting page after page criticizing our starting QB, but then take umbrage at someone actually providing visual context for an opposing comparison. It is just fucking nonsense.

There is a  difference hitting on plays and things that need to be fixed. Even the dumbass takes. You have crossed the line spending an hour cutting up a low light film of a freshmen. We all know anyone could make one of Quinn. I would say that is shitty also. It’s just overboard.  I just can’t imagine a fan going that far over an argument with a bunch of unnamed morons on a fan site.

Again this is his 3rd year as a starter, and he hasn't gotten better at all, the team around him, especially the defense, has improved night and day, and they are the more apparent reason for 22-3 including 4 games with the backup.

And for the 6,578th time, that isn't the question.  The question is "which QB gives us a better chance to win RIGHT NOW?"

Sark thinks it's Quinn.  I'll trust him over a bunch of throw-it-over-the-mountain faded HS JV quarterbacks 10 days out of 10, for pity's sake.  Understand the argument, and stop bringing irrelevant shit to the table.

Most of this thread is below the belt. It's the territory.

I like talking football. I like watching plays. And yes, watching plays where our backup QB has room to improve is included among that. Hell, for a low light tape, there was a ton positive to take away. Some of those were just missed of tight windows. Some of those he had an open guy in another window that he will need to learn to hit (those Georgia highlights were rough in that regard, some big plays were there to be had). And some of those were just him trying to make something out of nothing and not succeeding. I don't understand taking it personal. It isn't an insult to the kid. And if you did the same thing for Quinn, I'd have the same response. The only difference with Quinn is that I know exactly what I'd see in that tape because we have seen a lot of the same problems over the last 3 years. But if you watched that tape, you'd also see the parts that he has improved on.

The pearl clutching over video of Arch’s misplays is alarmingly bitch-made.

Calling our starting QB or any returning member from our CFP team a pussy, should result in one required Oklahoma drill at any surly tailgate.

Sark has been forcing the pass to setup the run cause of the RB injuries, no shit you will see a different looking offense next year to start. You will probably see a different one at A&M after seeing some success running the ball late in both of the team’s last games.

Next man up.  It’ll be time to start shitting on Arch.  

Can we pin this somewhere@immamac? I’m sure the same people sticking up for Quinn will be sticking up for Arch the second he has a shitty half and some other part of the team has to carry him next year LOL. I’ll be right there in the trenches fighting all the bitches and saying “great qb’s throw 4 picks in a half sometimes, it never stopped Favre.” BO&W will come in and say Trey Owens is actually the giga chad  or whatever the fuck new age bullshit he spews.

Ok. Let me address this. Everyone is bitching that Ewers gets balls batted so I put the Arch ball getting batted too. A person SHOULD chip a rusher on the way to the flat. When I said that you guys said I was making excuses for Ewers. By putting the Arch ball getting batted maybe you guys see that it's not just a Ewers problem it's an US problem.

Stats never tell the whole story. You can have two teams rush for 125 yards per game. Both teams rush for exactly 5 yards every time they hand it off. If you ask which team is the better running team the stats will say that they are both exactly equal. However when you turn on the tape team A is getting their 125 vs a stacked box while team B is getting their 125 vs a 3 man front. Then team B comes up against a team wanting to load the box and their productivity drops in half and no one can figure out why while team A keeps chugging along at their 125 per totally unaffected because they always see loaded boxes.

Last game the Vandagriff kid was struggling. Then the Boley kid came in and looked much better than him or so said Derka. However, as soon as the freshman came in PK started calling a shit ton of blitzes because that's the rule vs a freshman, leaving us completely exposed on the back end 1v1. Guys, knowing he is a freshman, shirked their responsibilities and started taking chances causing coverage busts. The kid was just airing balls out and it caught us off guard. However, as soon as we went back to normal coverage he threw right into double coverage and got picked. Stats will show him as the better player but he likely wasn't.

Have actually looked at our schedule? It’s not good. If we don’t win those games with our talent disparity it would be criminal. Almost every QB in the SEC would be 10-1 with our roster and schedule. You should expect better from the starting QB at Texas.

Oh for fucks sake. Have you looked at other teams schedules at all? 

You act like we lost to the same shit ass teams Bama, Georgia, Tennessee,  Ole Miss, lost to. 

We best Vandy, Kentucky, Arkansas , Florida

Here's the truth: the SEC has two good teams Texas and Georgia and everyone else has lost to everyone else A LOT
