There, I made the thread for you guys to save you the time. This loss 100% is on Franks (again).

Couldn't even get 100 yards of passing offense before 4 minutes into the fourth quarter. Who would you guys like to see at QB? Even with the fumble, Emory looked interesting.

I agree it is on him this time. And McWilliams for being truly awful.

I think Mullen was willing to ride with Franks as long as there was a glimmer of hope to be in the hunt for the East. Now that its over, I say we ride with Emory and let him gain experience using the same gameplan for Franks that is we are a run heavy team and take our shots when necessary

My first thought when looking at Frank’s stat line was one thing...

Franks is bad against decent teams. That was a game where the defense needed a little help and franks and the offense said no thanks.

Two bad turnovers and a missed easy td. Sigh.

Still a good season by all accounts giving the limitations of this team. I hope they keep on fighting to 10 wins or more.

I think this game solidified something that we all knew, namely that Franks will not be the guy to get us over the top. You can't scheme your way to victory 8 times/yr in this conference, you have to be able to execute against the best of the best.

However, nothing about this loss changes my feelings that

(1) starting Franks this season was the right decision
(2) he has mostly played well, putting us in position to win games no one thought we would
(3) it's dumb, not to mention classless, to bash a player for what you expect him to do in the future before he's actually done it, just so you can say SEE I WAS RIGHT!

I think Franks and pass defense are equally to blame, tbh. We're definitely not going to compete for championships with Franks at QB. We have a good chance of winning 10 games this season, which is a successful first season no matter what, but I'm ready for Emory or Jalon.
