Just an aside on Murray, and this is not a flame/troll on Auburn but his numbers in his four games against Auburn were absurd.

Ramsey's the guy. Expect more long completions and TDs than last year. Also expect at least twice the interceptions (at least). If the turnovers get too ugly, Bauta will start getting some quality minutes and an opportunity to take the job.
But I expect it'll be Ramsey's all year. Our success will ultimately depend on how well Ramsey protects the football, so ....

and based on what we've seen that doesn't exactly inspire a ton of confidence at this point.

I thought Ramsey was fine given the circumstances

I can't speak to his progression or his potential, because that's in the future so it'd be impossible. And obviously, most QBs improve over time. But just based on what we saw last year, he seems to be somewhat careless with the ball. I'm hoping that a full offseason more and 2 easy games to start will help.

The concern with Ramsey will be the WTF interceptions. Making a tough throw into coverage when it's 3rd or 4th and long and it's gotta be done is one thing. Having a pass bounce off a receiver into the hands of a defender, well, shite happens.
But making throws into coverage when it's 2nd and 3, or burning a short pass into the middle when you have time and a little touch is needed, well .... that's where Ramsey has everyone nervous. It's the space between the ears. He can throw, but can he be a QB?

I just thought the game was moving pretty fast for him against Louisville, which is what you'd expect in his first really meaningful action. That will get better with time, or at least it does for most people.

Yes exactly. I remember the Troy game last year when we were blowing them out and Ramsey came in. He threw a ball directly to a troy LB where a UGA player wasn't within 15 yards in any direction. It was like "wtf are you doing?"

No doubt Ramsey has the most arm strength since Stafford but I'm expecting him to throw 10+ picks in 2015.

He has a cannon. 99% of those guys think they can fit it in any little hole. Stafford used to make me really nervous slinging it over the middle to Michael Moore in triple coverage. He got away with it most of the time but he still threw more interceptions than he had to. Ramsey/Park will do the same but without the same velocity.

Ramsey definitely has unreal raw talent, it's just a matter of him hitting his peak before Eason comes in.

At this point, I'm leaning toward the Bauta camp for starting qb. Players say he's the hardest worker they've ever seen, lives in the football complex. I've also read that, despite his rep as a runner, his passing is greatly improved. Ramsey is a more natural passer and also a good athlete, but my guess is that Bauta's hard work will make him more familiar with the offense and give him the edge. Judging from (lack of) scrimmage stats so far, Park may not be mentally ready to take the reigns.
