people think Harris is "duel threat" based on absolutely no other evidence other than he is black

Etling is more mobile than Harris

Zach Mettenburger type


LOL!!! What exactly is a Zach Mettenburger style QB?? Didn't know he had his own style but if I had to guess, it would be a QB that had Jarvis and OBJ on either side of the field and you would just throw it up and watch them catch it???

GTFO. You're holding Lee's freshman year when he wasn't supposed to even be playing, and 2 passes against Bama in 2011, against him and ignoring all the good decisions he made the rest of the time. Lee most definitely couldn't get over the Bama hump, but he developed into a good enough QB for us to dominate all but 1 team.

ETA: Bringing race into labeling QBs is just stupid by the way.

I don't want to hijack the thread, but Lee made some terrible decisions in 2011. We lose to Oregon if their corners could catch, for example. Lee threw right to them a few times.

I did and do. JaMarcus was not a complete statue like Mett. He wasn't "duel threat" either, but he wasn't a statue.

Interesting, is Carson Wentz a Pro Style QB? Because he and Etling have similar skill sets.

He made many more good ones than bad ones. You're reaching to try to make a race baiting point.
