There is no way you can’t see it

This is not a new QB getting adjusted or getting the other teams’ best or new defensive wrinkle.
Our QB looks like a statue. He stares down is #1 receiver (and still throws somewhere near him), he can’t seem to throw a pass further than 10 yards.
This is a QB problem more than Oline or play calling. Change the QB and see if those other two don’t get a lot better. Best man up should apply no matter what the position.

Agree. Give someone else a series or two. Staff is afraid the backup will look better and then have a problem.

Hate that it’s happening, but I totally agree with this.***

I don't see why everyone cannot see that maybe, just maybe, a Rookie QB who has started a big 5 games in his career is not as good as Bojangles thinks he is. You can go back through the years and find many "top" recruits who just don't work out for one reason or another. DJ does not have a large enough body of work for us to say how good he is yet plus this entire offense may simply be not as talented as the past few teams. DJ is our best shot so give hive a chance this weekend. It is make or break for the season and ALL of us need to be ALL IN.

This is very similar to Trevor's freshman year...

Remember Dabo was insistent that Kelly Bryant was the starter and the best QB that we had? Yes, Kelly came in and won the A&M game, but it was still obvious that Trevor was the better QB.
It's obvious to the whole world that DJ is struggling. We know DJ has the potential, because we saw it last year. And he may be the most talented QB we have. But at this point in time he is not the best QB we have. Not sure if it's physical, mental or what. Dabo always says, he puts his best 11 on the field. Well that's a bunch of bull. There is nothing wrong with sitting the kid and helping him get his head on straight. Take a series or two and have Streeter talk to him about what he's seeing, help him work through it. But throwing the kid out there series after series running the same plays with the same results isn't helping the team and isn't helping the kid develop as a player.

Except it was the RB position.

Looks like DJ has Steve Sax syndrome. Next man up.

This coaching staff isn’t afraid of that tough decision.
Shipley, Bresse, Makuba, Lawrence displaced upper classmen. And these are just ones off the top of my head.

They should wait for the UConn game to bring in offensive recruits for visits - what top HS kid would look at this mess and want to be a part of it, as compared to any other offense they’ll see with their visits? All can see it, we win and drop in the polls, and will continue to drop until fixed.
Unfortunately, Paul Fartbomb called it for what it is - we have no offense period. Why do our coaches make excuses and appear blind to the obvious.
In reference to the many other posts, I do not remember Streeter being a good QB, what value does he bring in teaching DJ? If a good recruiter, let him recruit. Hopefully Dabo’s loyality doesn’t keep TE in place. Normally, teams evolve with the times, we’ve regressed to the Tommy Bowden days in the past.
Go (forward) Tigers !!!
