Did I completely miss the evaluation on him being a dual threat QB? I thought/read/heard that he was a DT QB. Also, if he is not a DT QB, and it appears that he is not, why run a read option formation? There is NO reason for a defensive end to respect the "option" aspect. We have seen and are going to see for the rest of the year, the end attacking the mesh point on these BS play calls.

I think the kid is a great QB and I'm glad to have him, but as usual, we are seeing the fitting of a square peg into a round hole with scheming.

That's why they've given him a pass option to dump to the wr on a few plays. He does need to keep it once or twice from now on

I am baffled by why he never keeps the ball on a read option (assuming any are ever called). He may have done once or twice all season.

He's got to be at least as good a runner as SW, and he ripped off several pretty good runs last year; 40+ yards against Arky.

Fricking Elting did on us and got 9 yards on their second TD drive; every one of our defenders went for the RB.

The only thing that makes sense is that they are afraid of getting him hurt, but he's more likely to get hurt on a sack that a running plan, IMHO.

Stidham is a complete stud. NFL arm talent. He is playing in a JV offense with a broken o-line. He still only has around 10 career starts.

I pray we get a competent coaching staff and he will shine, I promise.

Every thing I've ever seen has him listed as dual threat. He's reported to have 4.6 speed (not with AU stopwatch either).

I think hes more athletic than White or JJ, but he's certainly no Nick Marshall either.
