re: Brennan starting is worst case scenario…

Based on previous performance, and the fact that he has not won the job outright at this point, gives me little faith in being a +5 win team with him as the starter. Stats are admirable, but W’s weren’t there. I think our best hope is Nuss winning trust in fall camp, and taking the job pre FSU

Stop. The sky is not falling.
With a better D-line prescense and better protection from the oline, we win that Missouri game by 3 scores. Thats what 90% of naysayers base their opinion of Brennan off of, "but he couldnt even punch it in from the one!" We could not run the ball for shite the entire game dude. We put that whole game on Brennan's back and said throw it to Marshall, best wishes. The only bitch I have with Myles that day was his 3rd down conversion rate, but being in obvious passing downs and having zero threat to run the ball makes it a tad bit more difficult to push the ball down the field through the air when you have DB's knowing what you're about to try. I hope Brennan comes out and throws 6 td's in the first half just to shut everybody up. If he keeps his weight in check and can navigate the pocket, we will win plenty of ball games. Our recieving corps is ridiculous in case you haven't noticed, and Emery is in his money year. Dude will run wild. If our O-line plays to potential we are in for a good, maybe great, year.
