POB is vastly superior to Stanton. Even at the JUCO level Stanton is subpar.
At the risk of derailing this thread, his stats don't exactly look sub par. He's completing 62.6% of his passes. Accounting for almost 300 yards of total offense per game. Threw 3 picks the first game. Since then his TD/INT is 17/5. And they've won their last 8 games.
Saddleback isn't exactly in the realm of, for example, Butler Community College. It wouldn't be a JUCO that coaches would say, "Man, we've gotta get a pipeline to that place going!" if that makes sense. POB can complete every pass on the tree. Johnny's a great guy, but he's far too erratic, second guesses himself too much and that snowballs into panic. POB knows what he can do, does it extremely well and doesn't let the little stuff get to him.
You've watched a bunch of his games this year?
Actually, yes.
Which games has he looked that bad?
