    This switching QB mess is for the birds, win or lose find a QB and stick with him.

    Here is my opinon: We are not going to win road games at UGA and at Florida with Marcus Randall throwing for 110 yards. He looks uncomfortable in the pocket. I say we start Jamarcus and live with the results.

    I say start JaMarcus and go with him the rest of the way. This is not our year.

    With what I saw today, I don't want Russell or Randall to start. I'm leery of Flynn too since he's only attempted 4 or 5 passes ever.

    This is going to be a rough stretch. Whoever starts the game next week needs to play until late into the 4th quarter and then start the rest of the season. Be it Randall or Russell, stick to one of them. I just don't think they'll get it done this year.

    I will say this much..... Our offense looks a lot more wide open with Russell in there....

    I tend to agree with those who want to put JR in and let it ride. He is the future. End of story. Saban may continue platooning at the QB position, but if the Tigers get a couple or three losses under their belt, it'll be time to get JR the time he needs to develop into the QB we are all hoping he'll be. I don't think Randall is going to get the job done. Something's gotta give.

    i disagree although as hot as MR started out I think we should have left him
    in the game.

    You let both guys play until 1 guy becomes the guy or just go with who's hot.

    I agree with going with JR all the way. Randall looks good for a series, but then he goes to sleep, low throw, wide throw. Too many 3 and out series. Those are lost opportunities to score points. The defense can't be counted on to hold top ten teams to under 9 points. There look like a solid unit, not quite as good as last year.

    Put JR in and leave him in. He will learn what he needs to learn for next year.

    I'd also like to see more of Alley Broussard.

    JR was no stunner although he did lead them down the field before a fluke play cost them the game, Randall just is not very good, I say lets put JR in and live with the results. This offense is very very young. WE just went down two games in the SEC west, Auburn has a very favorable schedule. NO big deal, we still love our Tigers. But lets put in JR and roll with it. MR wont win games, if JR doesnt at least he is getting experience.
