Would be interesting to see how much better Eason could look with the present team.




He would be improved, but not quite as good as Fromm has been.

It's literally just my opinion based on what we have seen from both. Fromms efficiency has played a big role in our success, and I don't think Eason would have matched it. Eason has looked like trash this year in his limited PT.

but referencing my post above, you've seen eason on a garbage team and fromm on a top 4 team. The situations aren't remotely similar.

Let's see, he played 2 series in the opener going pro-style before we opened it up, got 1 drive at the end of the UT game, and got garbage minutes against vandy. Everytime he's played other than 2 drives has been with our backups and no real desire to open things up. We still haven't seen Eason in 2017 with a full playbook arsenal and starters all around him, aside from 1 drive.

This isn't true. We "opened it up" with him at qb.

In his 8 plays, He had 2 bad pass attempts and took a sack for no reason, which led to his injury. We were well on our way to a 3rd straight punt. The offense looked painfully similar to 2016 and then it magically looked better for some reason. Just a coincidence that we changed qbs right?

He proceeded to not take advantage of his reps upon return as well. Missed an open guy vs ut. Even Made a bad decision that led to an opponent td, just as ramsey did in game 1.

What are you talking about? He was hit late out of bounds on a scramble

They called it a sack. Maybe because he lost a yard. Nonetheless, it was an example of a bad decision. Dare I say a freshman mistake?

He lost yards on the run. He should've thrown the ball away.

This is what a lot of people don't understand about the QB position. The QB essentially carries the energy of your whole offense. It's not just about experience or seniority, it's about feel


Absolutely. My guess is this has a lot to do with why Hurts is still your QB and not Tua. Things are Humming along just fine with Hurts, so why tinker with it (no matter how good Tua may actually be)?
