The fact that Lambert and Ramsey will be working in their third offensive system


that's huge and can't be understated. Eason will be here in 27 days, he's not going to be behind any of the other QBs as far as picking up the new playbook and terminology. Now, he may be a bit behind on the speed in which he understands it all, but everyone is starting on the same page in this offense.

And I'm not necessarily saying we completely throw him to the wolves, especially since UNC isn't a cupcake. But he damn sure better get some significant snaps in game 1. Lambert, while limited, did show (at least on the stat sheet anyway) that he's fairly safe with the ball. He very well may help us win in game 1. We have a cupcake the next week so eason should get at least a half of gametime. Next week at a bad missouri, more of the same.

We aren't beating ole miss with lambert. I don't think. I'd prefer to let eason take some lumps game 1-3 then let him loose.

Jacob Easons father kinda said the same thing I was going to in that the OL can make the QB look really good or really bad. Our OL sucked last year.

While most would look to Lambert and Ramsey as working with their third OC being a negative. I think there would be some positives as they will have more exposure and more knowledge from different people. That's definitely a positive but Eason starting from a clean slate.

Unlike most people, I really think Lambert is a pretty solid QB who throws a really good ball. I think Eason will probably get the better of him and completely pass him on the depth chart by the time that we get to Auburn game maybe even before unless Kirby at Chaney have promised him he'd start. Then you've got to factor in the thought that Chaney will see Eason as his guy where as he didn't choose to offer Ramsey or Lambert. That will push Eason past Lambert and Ramsey as well.
