UniversalMartin Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Let's not do this...let's not take a very good performance from AM against Fordham and point to it as a "see, he is good"...I want him to be good, but want to see it vs a pulse 3 1 Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 42 minutes ago, teachercd said: He did not get benched, Frost made a mistake, which we all admitted. Dude has 15 games over 300 yards of offense. Last year he had no WR's and no line. What do you mean he didn't get benched? Is that just a semantics disagreement? Mistake or not, McCafferey ended up starting instead of him at one point, and Martinez absolutely played a role in that decision. I also think it is disingenuous to gloss over the fact that he averages more than one turnover per game and ignore the cacophony of other mistakes he has made by focusing on offensive yardage output. If you step back and look at the whole picture, Martinez is a roller coaster quarterback. There's no denying he hasn't had great pieces around him but there's also no denying that he is a liability more often than he should be. 5 Quote Link to comment

I agree that he has earned his fair criticisms, but I don't think he's been given his fair credit (esp after his freshman year) to balance it out. 1 Quote Link to comment

Sure but he is still the best QB in the west. 1 Quote Link to comment

He showed in this game that he can make great throws. Now, yes…..he needs to it against better teams. But to do that, the O line has to hold up too. Quote Link to comment

Did you see Fartz from Wisconsin, or Tanner Morgan or that NW QB. Being queen of the pigs doesn’t make you a pretty queen. Hopefully AM can replicate the Fordham game against Big10 quality opponents, while making faster decisions. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment

True, but when there are only 7 queens, one of them is still the hottest! 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Granted, my search was quick and most likely incomplete. But these four coaches were the only coaches I saw that were hired in 2018 and still with that team today. 3 Quote Link to comment
