EZ-E.... the God of huskerboard
What is there to get? That no matter how bad Taylor plays he will never be replaced in the middle of a game or benched due to lack of performance?

He got benched during the Texas game in 2010. So what you're saying just isn't true.
Benching a guy for the sake of benching a guy - when there's not a viable option behind him - makes absolutely no sense.

Okay, I didn't realize I had to spell it out.
1) TMart gives us a good chance to win the remainder of our games. End of discussion, he is our best QB.
2) Kellogg is a very fundamentally sound QB, but would have had trouble adjusting to the speed of play.
3) make zero mistakes, Armstrong is good. Very good. I expect big time things out of him. But he isn't there yet. If Taylor would go down, I'd want him to play. But do you really burn a valuable redshirt year that hindered Cody Green's development in a game like Saturday night? If you pull a redshirt you better be damn sure it's the right choice because you can't get it back. It would have been reckless to do this to Tommie Saturday.
Nothing further your honor.

Originally I wasn't until I realized how butt-hurt people get, like you, on huskerboard when someone shares their opinions.
I simply believe that Taylor Martinez is an average QB at best and regardless of who we have in at QB during the games we won't see much of a difference. Across the board all of our QBs are probably pretty even talent wise, besides Kellog.
But what the hell do I know, right? I don't have 2,287 posts

i was told that our backup qb could literally fly...its been bugging me all week that we havent put him in the game. js
^THIS! Get the ball into the playmakers hands. That is what winning teams do. Get some experience for Armstrong prior to taking the reigns in 2014 or possibly 2013 depending on his development/performance. We have used AA, Heard, Cross as change of pace RB's, why not TA as a change of pace and to allow Martinez to "settle down" if needed. Look at how much better off we are next year with the carries that AA, Heard and Cross have had.
We need to stop recruiting guys with the intention of getting the ready to "play in a year or two" and get them on the field in some capacity if they can contribute. I do not think a lot of kids would complain about getting 15-20 snaps per game as a Freshman. I am unsure how any come in wanting to start for 4 years vs I want to play and or contribute immediately.

You mean like the guy who currently sits atop the conference in Pass Efficiency? Playmakers like that?
If only we had a guy like that on the team...

Wow, your lack of substantial facts, anecdotal evidence, and contempt are doing an excellent job of helping you troll the hell out of this board.
And delusional--last time I checked, there are 10 other players on offense, and 11 men playing on the defense as part of a TEAM that contributed to both the wins and losses of this program. If you're only seeing one man on the field, you may need to refill your meds.
Please go back to wherever it is you trolls sit there and spin yourselves up, waiting for a young man to stumble just so you can thread s**t all over the place.
