But if the OC can see that the offense can be more efficient by changing up the strategy, you go with Smothers (more run game, some option, some QB draws). Therefor, I think Purdy comes in because he throws well in practices. If it were me, and my starter was out, I'd bring in Smothers and switch to a survival mode, which is a run type of game. Smothers has had some pretty bad fumbles. Quote Link to comment

He talks about how bad they had to screw up in order to lose that game.

Red Five Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 We’ve been on the other end of these, so I guess it’s good to finally get “lucky” Quote Link to comment
84HuskerLaw Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 HC fires staff to scapegoat them and about 12 months later the HC gets fired. Kinda a kick in NEB fb balls to say we are so bad that to lose to us is a fireable offense! Ugh Hope we somehow get about 7 more coaches fired!!! Lol Quote Link to comment

He looked like a cross between Mahomes and Brees in the first 1/2 of the Northwestern game- then looked like crap. Same, but maybe reverse with Indiana. Oklahoma was crap all the way around. Friday, he looked horrible in the first half. Passes were flaying ducks. They were the worst I’ve ever seen since maybe Armstrong? Then he lays one in there perfectly for Palmer. He has a lot of hesitation to take 5-8 easy runs yards in front of him. For a few games, I though CT and Amart would have been interchangeable, but I don’t see CT getting better and I think he will always need to sit a series or two to gather his head. I’m not sure that backed up on our own 8 the right time for a backup to come in. Maybe it would be better just to punt than take a safety. I guess Purdy had some success against Oklahoma, so maybe Whipple was thinking along that line of thought. I miss #2am. He could take a lickin and keep on keeping on. I’ve heard how banged up CT is, but I’ve never really seen him get laid out like Amart used to get, so I do question his toughness some. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Some of the worst QB play I've ever seen, which I think is indeed some luck. Quote Link to comment
