Really? Because we had a better yards per play than they did

I saw their Qb working the edge, all day, pulling the ball out and running fearlessly and in a decisive manner.  Then, letting his RB run all over when we keyed on him.  Isn’t that what AM is supposed to be doing?  We got a lucky W

2 of the I completed were when he was running for his life and threw it away, especially with one being on another crappy snap by Jurgens.  Look at the stats that way and he did pretty good 

 

Ok then you have to give Martinez that same benefit when comparing his play.

Their offense was not very good and our offense out gained theirs overall and per play but ok

Why does that matter?  Do you honestly think Jurgens is a gamer at center?  How many drives did he single handedly kill today via penalty or bad snaps?  It was a lot, not acceptable 6 games in. 

It matters because lets let the kid develop. Rimington probably wouldn't have looked like the All American he was if inserted in the starting line up his second year on campus. Jurgens probably won't be the next Rimington honestly, but at the same time there is a chance he is damn good in 2 years

In the same token as our QB, just stick with a guy just because?  He has not shown he can handle the job, so give the next guy a shot and settle him down.  Center has been crap all year

Yes, the stats are what they are, but did u even watch the game?  Their first drive in the 3rd quarter was something we could not do all day.  Take away our big plays and then what?

Not just because, but because of what they show in practice in comparison to the other players at their position. Do you watch all of our practices? It didn't look much better at center when Farniok played against S Alabama. He snaps more consistently but is worse at blocking.

We drove down the field a few times too. One successful drive doesn't mean you played well, usually it means the opposite.
