The majority of games... I guess Trevor Lawrence will now start most of the games

How much weight does Walt carry with naming starters? None.

With this defense and Bryant's ball security -- he may not go big deep often but neither does he hand it to the other guys, a really big thin for a coach who won a NC as a player for Alabama's Stallings, straight off the Bear Bryant coaching tree -- he is going to be the starter until he proves he can't do it. The guy won 13 games last year. Even Watson rode the bench most of his first season and Lawrence isn't Watson, at least yet. It is an interesting exercise but just that. Pencil ion Bryant with Lawrence getting snaps. In other words, take Swinney at his word.

that Lawrence is better at this point than Watson was coming in. It is my contention that should TL go through his first year without injury he will top DW's overall college stats and record. He will certainly be the first player drafted when he goes pro.
Saying which one is better isn't fair to either. If there's a real difference in the situations both entered when the came to Clemson it's the guy in front of them. Cole and Kelly are radically different players with opposite skill sets.
KB won't have to prove anything to lose the starting job. That's solely up to TL to take it. Dabo says best man on the field. If that is true then TL will take the job when he proves he's better than KB. KB can progress but this is now a footrace with both men moving forward.

Predicting that a QB will be the first player drafted when he goes pro, before he even throws a pass in college, with the only caveat that he remains healthy his first year, seems a bit of a stretch.

So is throwing long.
Some love to do it, do it well, and do it frequently.
Others only do it when told to.
Do you know we had a higher avg gain per rush than avg gain per pass, even though KB's completion rate was high. That shows a pathetic passing game.

offense like watson had. If Trevor can prove that he can run the offense like Watson, KB will be riding the bench.

I think We can get too caught up on who is better. They’re both good. The real question is under which QB will the offense as a whole be better? I think it has to be TL. Because he is the much better passer especially with the deep ball the safety’s will have to stay back to not get beat deep. That will make both our running game and our underneath passing game better by making defenses play the whole field. If it’s me, I start TL from day one, let him work most of the Furman game to get acclimated. Put in wildcat and goal line/ short yardage packages for KB for the TAMU game as a change of pace, but let TL be the man. TL will make some mistakes but the offense will be better overall taking a lot of the pressure off him.
