This is the defining moment for Petermen this season. Who gives a shit about practice, Miles sucks and everyone on the team knows it. The only life we have seen all season was Williams in mop up. And I don't care if it was mop up, some guys are built for the game, some guys are built for the practice field.

Miles did not look good losing to UCLA and Oregon State was the one game that Seven used Sankey because even Sark knew that Miles sucked.

Mark Brunell was the perfect Don James quarterback who practiced hard and lived in the film room. He also melted in the heat against Colorado and UCLA in 1990 and Arizona and the Rose Bowl in 1992. UW has no national championships if he doesn't blow out his knee. Billy Joe was a fuck up who didn't give a shit about practice, I mean we talking about practice, and he had the best team in school history around him in 1991 but the one game they needed big balls at QB he was there to deliver. Ask the classy Nebraska fans who rose as one when he was done driving his Camaro up their ass.

We thought the offense would suck last night but not the defense. But you have a mentally weak team looking for a reason to quit and Miles gave it to them. Yeah, they suck for quitting and yucking it up like the fucking losers they are, but this team needs someone to take them on his back and lead them with some fire in his belly and strength in his arm. This team knows Miles is a loser. If Petermen doesn't then send his JC as back to Boise.

This is Division One Football, brother.
 
Miles sucks right now, but too much focus is on him. Ducks converted every 4th down, had 99 yard drives, Timu drops a pick 6, Mickens drops an early TD pass, we can't run the ball at all. I have never seen Mickens make a play that wasn't routine. Getting down 21-6 and we saw from Miles what we should have expected. He's not good enough to generate a comeback.

Williams may be the answer, but this is typical crying for the back up QB when the starter struggles. I hope we find out. It can't hurt. Paus was better than Pickett. Until he wasn't. Miles was better than Price, yada, yada. This is a worn out narrative.

A journey starts with a single step. If Petermen can't take care of a QB that sucks what confidence is there that he can do the rest that needs done.

It's typical pointing out that Miles sucks. Because he sucks.

No. As I said last night... the crying from Doogs has been when a proven starter struggles due to obvious problems with the rest of the team (Cody Pickett, anyone?) everyone wants to see Casey Paus.

This is not that. This is: we have three young QBs and we've played two of them and they've both been shit. There's one who everyone thinks has the highest ceiling, but is too prone to gambling for Peenerman's taste. When that kid played there was a spark, garbage time or no.

Stop dooging for Miles. He fucking sucks. Get over it. He is bad at everything a QB should do.

Price was a proven QB when doogs were clamoring for Miles.

Miles hasn't done shit to keep the job.

This is not the same narrative.

I'd say dig deeper, but it's not that hard.
 
I had already turned the game off in disgust. Was Williams really that much different?

Well, if you call throwing dimes, leading the team, making plays with his feet and getting players to play with some spirit different, then yeah.

It was garbaggio time, though... so I think we would all like to see him play in non-garbage time. Miles fumbled the ball without anyone touching him like Ronnie Fouch useta do.
 
The thing with Price was that it was clear watching him that he wasn't the kind of QB that was going to lead you to a conference championship. The HOPE was that Miles could give you comparable play with a little bit of an added spark.

 
The thing about Williams is he's a sub 50% passer in scrimmages with a buttload of INTs, and he's basically Nick Montana with regards to YPCatch = expect a lot of weak 4-7 yard passes. Williams isn't the answer just yet...maybe next year. Huskies will quickly tire of his "poor down-field vision".

Miles is the best UW has right now. UW simply needs to run for 250+ yards a game with Miles as the starter, or lose.

I'd like to see Lindy substituted in for 3-4 plays at a time and do almost solely the option and an occasional long pass.

I think Browning is the next Cody Pickett - may not get into the NFL, but he will probably set records at UW like he has been doing in HS.
 
UW plays scared against Oregon. Simply mindfucked after being owned the past 11 years now. It's a remnant of Sark and those before him, and while I'm disappointed I didn't see more fire from Peterson's crew, I'm not surprised. Guess we'll see if it carries over to ASU. Either way it'll be interesting.

*ass

But yeah, I'll pitch in to a group fund to get Williams a Camaro if it helps.

Oregon wanted Williams but he did not like "the way Oregon did Darron Thomas". FWIW

I'm all for letting Williams play but this is not a change. I bought the hype that he had the higher ceiling after I saw just how low Miley's ceiling really was.

It's still going to be ugly. The OL sucks complete ass and the receivers are even worse. The lack of talent on this offense is fucking brutal to behold. Troy Williams may turn out to be an absolute gamer but he'll still be hamstrung by a shitty supporting cast.
