Taylor had quite a few poorly thrown balls. Atleast one that would have been a pick against a BCS team. Cody's miss thrown ball was likely a pick- he has a tendency to sail balls when in games. However, if Green can stretch the field better than Tmart with his arm.. would it be better to play the arm QB and if need of an elusive runner just use Rex out of the wildcat?

calm down. Ok, what did we learn last year when Lee had his first game? He could play. What did we learn after the Sun Belt Tournament? He struggled as did the offense. This is Western Kentucky, just cause he didn't play that much, doesn't mean anything. We will see what happens when we play Washington, and after SDSU.
Wow. There really are people here who think they know more about the game then Pelini and Watson.
I feel for Lee. I really do. But I also have to think that even he would be a little ticked off at this thread. I highly doubt that Lee is questioning the decision of his coaches, or the play of his teammates. Zac Lee is a class act. He's going to be a huge part of this offense's success whether he's on the field or not. And, if he remains the backup, he's not going to go around feeling sorry for himself and tell others that the coaches "screwed" him out of his spot. That kid is a heck of a lot more grown up than some of the people on this board.

I feel for Lee to, I mean we gave hime praise after the first 4 games, then after missouri, we sorta gave him a cold shoulder. But how many players (quarterbacks none the less) accept the fact they've been benched. He kept his head up though. If he doesn't become the starter, I honestly hope he keeps his head up high, and give any advice he has to whomever the starter is.

Ok, now this is a kid who came off a very solid debut, and is some collegiate fantasy-footballer's wet dream right now but his post-game remarks seemed a little over the top. He said that he didnt really have to work very hard to get to this point... what, does he WANT to run 25 extra sets of stadium stairs? Also, he seemed over-confident of his abilities and plays and seemed to enjoy the compliments on good runs just a little too much. I'm all for excitement about the youngster's first real game, and he played like a veteran at times, but he has to be humble. He also held the ball up with one hand twice BEFORE crossing the goal line in celebration which could cause a huge problem in the future should someone catch up with him.
All in all, he looked good, had three dropped passes, but this was still against WKU and I personally don't think that the way he said things after the game was smart on his part or the correct way to go about it. I'll tip my hat to the kid for his performance on the field but his performance off it has been less than that of a LEADER to start off the season.
It was after all just one game, but does anyone else feel the same way? I mean it could legitimately be that just cause he's so quiet he doesn't like adding all the fluff to his answers to make them sound more humble... i noticed he didn't talk very much in the interviews on TV or the radio, but that will come with experience.

Of course if he produces we can give him a break for being cocky. but the OP is worried that his over-confidence may lead to him thinking he's invincible and once he throws that first pick or gives away his first fumble, things can spiral down hill fast with a cocky attitude.
