He's played for like 12 fricking years now . It's not like he's a 2nd year backup, kinda like the guy that is getting those reps.

Because Dennis Allen wants LSU fans to see how Brian Kelly developed QBs while at Notre Dame

100% but we cant play scared while we are building with new guys. This is good practice if he cant take hits time to pick up another QB anyway

It's not playing scared, it's playing smart. Besides, preseason games don't exactly show much and everyone isn't even playing, so it's more to evaluate guys you haven't seen much in NFL games to see what they do.

I just think that because players are being evaluated as you say right now and you have Book running the show and your trying to make the team, lets just say good luck.

A few things are different now, there are only three preseason games and maybe they want to see if Book is worth keeping around

You think Dalton needs preseason reps? With almost none of the starters?

He is saying Book sucks so bad he is going to cost other guys a spot on the team. The receivers are set, hell the top ones aren't playing. Anyone on the bottom of the depth chart for receiver is going to make the team based on special teams play so his reasoning still doesn't make any sense.

This is a team on offense all trying to get better. You Do Not get better as a Team with a guy like Book its a complete waste of good preseason game time.
Im in understanding that Dalton needs to keep his health but there are good players on the cut line on offensive with a bad player they are banking on.
I should have corrected what I meant by "playing right now". It should have been a half minimum for Dalton. He and all players that we hope to use outside of guaranteed starters need to play a half or no one gets better and we have no idea who can do shite after a Book lead debacle.

he's basically saying Book is costing other players b/c he sucks, whereas if they were on the field with a better QB, ala Dalton, they'd have a better chance of looking good and showcasing their talent

So you want to line the qb1 until winston is healthy, up against and NFL defense with 3rd string oline in front of him???
Or do we not let the back up oline get reps.
Hell ak41 need to get into game speed he should get 15 carrys.

If anything, Book is evidence that BK can win even with a garbage QB...
