Nah man, he said Etling could toss swing passes to our RBs every game and we would wreck shite even with a low YPA.
Constant swing passes would really throw off Saban and Muschamp.

Correlation=/=causation
You don't score in games by racking up yards.
Of course I meant that completely literally.

Also, you said he'd be a better game manager and all you care about is TDs/INTs. Brandon Harris was better in both aspects last year, as the stats I posted show.

Surely Harris is indestructible , Jennings has vastly improved, McMillan is up to speed , , , throwing check downs to the playmakers in this team vs. throwing it away or taking a sack is surely a bad thing, QBs with limited arm talent surely can't win on the right team, QBs that suck one place will always suck. Just to name a few but anyway,,,,bye
Also, DTRooster, I have no clue what this means.
I didn't say any of that...

Guilty myself. Obviously Cameron is concerned enough about our QB situation to throw out a flier. It is what it is until proven otherwise. All of that wasn't to you, just knocking down future bs before it starts

I mean, we also threw out a flier for Rob Bolden. This is the same type of situation.
And I hate bashing the kid, but its absurd someone thinks he's better than Brandon Harris and would "Wreck shite" in the toughest division in the toughest conference in America after being fricking benched at Purdue and literally having worse stats than Brandon Harris.

Harris started one game and stunk up the place.
NMST and the ending of the MSU game hardly count. I could've thrown for 500 vs NMST.
Nothing is absurd in college football. It shouldn't shock anyone that Etling could beat Harris and Jennings.

But Central Michigan and Southern Illinois count for Etling. Oh wait he was bad in those games.

Is is absurd that you think a guy that got benched at Purdue would wreck shite in the SEC West.

You're really dumb, huh? I didn't know that Etling had Leonard Fournette, Malachi Dupre, Trey Quinn, Travin Dural, La'El Collins, etc all with him.
Damn you're right
Etling must be a terrible QB! He ruins games single handedly! He could've fricked up the 2001 Hurricanes.
YPA is an outcome of having success in the passing game. It doesn't prove anything on the QB alone. It also shows that the WRs are pretty damn good. If you think a QB should be judged on YPA, you should stop looking at QB statistics.

People saying that Etling are bad should watch the video posted above. He's much better than Jennings. It is hard to tell whether or not he will be at Brandon Harris' level but, he has talent. He steps up in the pocket well, progresses through reads, and can run adequately.
There are obviously deficiencies in his game, but the terrible record and stats can be more put on his team in general. It will be interesting to see if he gets playing time here

Why was he benched for another terrible QB?

He presented his opinion in a good way.
He didn't deal in hyperbole that Etling would wreck shite in the SEC West and he didn't say he was better than Brandon Harris.
You understand how your two opinions are different?

Sorry that I make it exciting here. Next time I'll write a scholarly essay in MLA format.
