I've already decided to be mad when they name Johnny Armstrong the starter.

Because when that happens, then Johnny Stanton will become the most popular QB on the roster. Because that's how it works.

Honestly I agree with that. The way they talk Stanton up he could truly be a force in the next couple seasons. Hard to imagine Armstrong as a backup but if JS is half as good as they say it will be a battle for the QB spot next year.

It will be a great qb battle, I just hope whoever they pick, the fans will support which is HIGHLY unlikely.

lolno. There's too many fans who haven't supported the current starter even when he was the best we had to offer by a huge margin.

Apparently I'm out of +1s but this is so true it literally isn't funny.

Bo does not throw with a big lead. Weve seen it many times. Some coaches will continue with the game plan with backups in. Bo is not that way. That is the one and only reason why tommy didnt throw any passes.

He doesn't? Wasn't most of Kelloggs plays thrown? I could be wrong, but pretty positive I'm not.

A big part of it will be Beck (if he is still OC) comfort level with TA/Stanton. Beck has a lot more plays at his disposal than you think - he just doesn't have faith in Taylor's skill set - and I'm not sure how he feels about Johnny at this point.

That said, Tommy will have game experience + an extra year under his belt + experience and chemistry with the 1s already. Depending on his knee....

Yeah I see Beck getting lured away by 2015. If that happens do we petition to get Frost back from Oregon?

This was what I was going to say. They were probably building confidence for Tommy (about his knee). Give him straight forward plays where he doesn't have to worry about getting hit while looking for a receiver and can just run and test that knee.
