People keep comparing stats and drops to justify one or the other. The point is, Etling has never played a down and looked more composed, made some checks, and climbed the pocket which Brandon doesn't seem to do well. That in of itself is very promising and stats aside, Etling was the better quarterback last night.

Let's maybe see him versus a divisional opponent before anointing him?

Anyone with eyes should have been able to come to this conclusion. Apparently the denial is strong in some.

Etling was thrown into a tense situation in a packed stadium not having played a down in 2 years against a team whose only regular season losses the past 2 seasons were against Michigan State and Auburn. Do you really think he won't be able to keep his composure against the team that lost at home to South Alabama last week?
