knapplc Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 McCaffrey, period. If we're going to lose one of them to transfer, it has to be Martinez. Cannot afford to lose Luke. 7 1 Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted November 7, 2020 Author Share Posted November 7, 2020 I think it's a clear choice now. McCaffrey had 2 fewer completions today than Martinez, on 15 fewer attempts. McCaffrey also had more yards per attempt. He is also much more decisive when it comes to choosing to run and then during the actual run. Martinez has regressed in every aspect of the game. 5 Quote Link to comment
commando Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 luke is the more accurate passer...by far judging just from todays game. i didn't get to watch the first game so can't comment on any more then that Quote Link to comment
ZRod Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 If Martinez could throw the ball he should start, but I feel like something is wrong with him. Luke has a lot more upside with his speed, elusiveness, and serviceability in the passing game. That said he won't make it through a whole season if he has to run this much. 1 Quote Link to comment
HuskermanMike Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Do we win the game with Luke in the entire second half? Quote Link to comment

There are a lot of talented, but inexperienced players in Lincoln. Get them on the field in what is basically a throw away year. Get them some game experience, now. No more 'stockpiling' good players for 'sometime' in the future. Either the future is now, or there is no future basically. If Martinez can win the spot back in practice, then great. Otherwise give McCaffery and the younger fellas their shot. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Barring injury to Luke, Martinez shouldn't take another snap. Quote Link to comment
runningblind Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 After watching this I think Luke has the moxie and the want to, but he looks not great throwing the ball. Adrian is a head case and has the yips, probably a terminal case. We should win more with Luke, I get why they want Martinez to start, he is way more talented as a passer but has just lost it. Get the young kids in, especially at WR. Get the talent on the field and lower the barriers to entry. Faulk and Warner will never get it done, ever. Sorry people, that is a fact. 3 1 Quote Link to comment

LumberJackSker Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 I vote luke. Give him the 1st team reps this week and see what he can do over 4 quarters. 1 Quote Link to comment

PaulCrewe Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 I'd go with Smothers or WanDale in the WIldcat all game long Quote Link to comment
Cy the Cyclone Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Neither...just call Martinez a running back and don't let him throw the ball. The only offense you have is the QB draw anyway so why bother even trying to throw it? Quote Link to comment
DefenderAO Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Luke. No game rhythm and still came in and did better than #2. He needs a start and a full game. Welcome tio Lincoln, PSU. Quote Link to comment
