wcware 1,365 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 It doesn’t really matter. I’m afraid we are in official lame duck coach stage. I’m looking to the future as the present is a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like he's try a different formation that's never been used before and it would suck or something like that lol And then throw a flea-flicker with the 300lb wildcat from said new formation.

It may do more harm than good if we don’t have someone that is just as capable. I don't think Bo could get any worse or more rattled by taking a breather. He needs to calm down more than anything. He's too amped up. It's not a lack of confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No opportunity for a 4th He should have been benched in the Georgia game. Just shows Auburn has no backup Qb. Cause he isn’t ready? why the hell not, our starter isn’t ready either. He’s just a true freshman joust out of high school. Can’t we still use that excuse? has intentional grounding now one of our go to plays. Been used in 3 games I think.

I feel like Our quarterbacks regress each week they play for Gus. So is it Gus or Nix. All I know is today he had pretty great protection made terrible decisions and his accuracy was abysmal. I think Gus has nothing to lose at this point. His job is likely lost barring significant improvement. Will there be a coaching change? Then there won’t be a QB change.

Dual-Threat Rigby 8,668 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 a legacy starting at auburn bc he's a legacy is disgusting, but that's at least tolerable and on-brand.

AuMarine 1,372 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Maybe the only chance we have is to try Loy. He is a graduate transfer and I am sure he remembers the QB coaching he got at Toledo so maybe he could provide a spark.. but then again Gus.. until Gus is gone we will see this replay over and over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think since he played for other coaches before he came here might give him an advantage; maybe bc he hasn't been negatively affected by Gus bad coaching for nearly as long?

GwillMac6 20,677 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 All a QB change would be doing is re shuffling the deck chairs on the titanic. It changes nothing until there is a coaching change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnEagle79 2,167 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Take away last year's Iron Bowl. If Jeremy Johnson had played like Bo Nix has this season, would he get benched? The answer is obvious, but there are a few factors that Bo has going on his favor that Jeremy didn't, and none of them have to do with what goes on inside the lines.

You know, it really never was a bias. I just wanted the words Gus said to mean something. If you're telling me these were two comparable talents, and they both were gonna get reps, why not do that? You do that, and we might be in an entirely different spot right now. More than Bo, Gus himself set the wheels in motion that got us here. No other QB option anywhere to be seen.

atl-tiger 655 Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 We don't have a better option at qb, just like most other positions. Gus thinks he's smarter than he is and everything will work out cause he's running his system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
