You make indisputable points about players possibly supporting one or the other. It's impossible to say either way. However, Hurts is the best quarterback on this team. I think we've moved past the point of yanking him if he is struggling. He's the man, barring injury.

Moreover, if we get into a game where we have to drop back over and over, I'm not sure I wouldn't prefer Hurts' escapability and less accurate arm to Barnett's arm and lack of escapability.

And I would note that I never said it was the case or even might be a rift among players. I said that a silver lining in this is that Barnett leaving precludes the...possibility...of there being a case like that. Huge difference.

Trying to be positive here because though Pangloss may think this is the best of all possible worlds, I don't necessarily agree.

Going out now to tend my garden.

Up to this point in time, maybe, but Hurts has been pretty bad throwing downfield. I hope he works through that quickly, because missed opportunities can mean losses, especially against teams like UT or A&M.
