I gave you a chance and you came up with Jake Butt. We ran the ball for a total of 52 yds. But it was all the QBs fault.

wouldn't have done worse and you need to develop your guys. Gav is not it, said this from almost day 1 and people wanted to harp on his qbr and other bs. our coaches suck, we'll never get to where we could be with a guy that describes his job as 'risk manager'
You know nothing you are not worth arguing with I already expressed my position even reposted it your beginning to make yourself a fool
I’m sorry. I must have missed your position. Why do you think GW lost us the game when we couldn’t run the ball and the OL made crucial mistakes on key downs?
Because we have no passing game. His position is QB but the reality is that in effect he’s only a second RB in the backfield who throws occasionally to try to keep the defense honest. Once we need to pass in a game to match scoring, it’s time to warm up the team bus.

Let me make a fool of myself some more. 1st half, GW 5/8 75 yds, RU 32 rushing yds. Who is not pulling their weight here?
more foolishness from me. 1st drive in plus territory 3rd and 2 followed by 2 false starts to kill the drive. 1st series in the 2nd half in plus territory 4th and 1 followed by false start. Johnny Football accounted for 2 of those false starts. GW was 7/13 for 93 yds at the end of 3rd Q.
Nova was flawed and inconsistent until he got real coaching from Friedgen. He corrected flaws that went uncorrected for several seasons and actually taught him how to play the position, something the multiple OCs before him did not do. RU under Schiano has been a development program at every other position except QB.
we are not a developmental program. you guys need to get better standards
we've discussed this already, anyone saying we're developmental is clueless
what we are is a team that in handicapped by ineffective coaching and an awful qb

Stop
He can’t run either-3 yards rushing today and soon as he get touched he falls down
He’s usually decent on designed runs and today except for the 3rd and 1 false start on Langan where he would have run right and gotten an easy first down they didn’t try to run him.
The strategy was to run clock and win field position against an expected weaker offense but Iowa executed too well. And once they were down two scores it was over. The strategy busted today.

Wasn’t the big play a 5 yard out Strong broke a tackle and gained 29 yards
Dremel had to jump as high as he could on 2 of his catches.
And when it was still a game he threw a horrendous pass to Washington who was wide open over the middle with no middle LB in sight

Dead on accurate - Nova matured exponentially under the Fridge. He was stagnant until then
If GW can’t throw he should be running more than 3x per game
Maybe you should stop being a baiting jerk and repeating the he knows nothing and calling him a fool and address the run game and the shitty play calling by Kirk.
You seem to be the the who knows nothing, so take a look in the mirror. Was GW part of the problem? Absolutely, his play was not good. But the offensive play calling was worse.
Maybe take a look in the mirror and take your own advice. You are getting crushed.
The big play was on a 3rd and 6 after another false start. The ball was so accurate, it hit Strong between his numbers with a defender all over him. We all know his flaws. But this game was not on him. No run game and too many penalties from OL.
Not going to dump on any of our players; their play is what it is. We don't seem to be improving on whatever skills they struggle with.
BUT, yesterday was an opportunity to get other QBs some live snaps. We weren't going to magically solve their defense, so once we were down by 2+ scores it would seem beneficial, as a development program, to send some players in for game action.
Change the result? Nope. In fact, possible the final score ends up worse. But, never a bad idea to have players gain game experience before an injury requires it.
Weird idea, I know.

If GW can't throw he should be on the bench.
