Martinez Starting QB
- Thread starter Husker Hambone

you don't read much do you? some other loser challenged me to it, and I said I would.. I have no qualms about it, but I wasn't the one who brought it up. it's not like I was out looking to go do that.. it was some other person's idea. so learn how to read and comprehend before you say dumb stuff.
So then, if you "would say it to any coach's face," why not do it?
Is it because you're a chickenshit blowhard who only mouths off on the internet?
So you "would say it to any coach's face," but you choose not to because they might kick your ass and then you would be forced to sue them?
I'll stick with the theory that you're a chickenshit blowhard who only picks fights from behind a keyboard.
So go say something to one of them. You'd get b*tch slapped and go crying to a lawyer?? Punk you are the bum
I bet you’re a fatass piece of shit if I was to take a guess. You can’t tell me the kid doesn’t want to get better
The only thing that matters is RESULTS, not potential. Martinez generates one negative play for each positive. The sack he took in OT against Colorado single-handedly lost that game. Having a steady QB who runs the offense, allows the playmakers to make plays, and doesn't hurt the team would be a major improvement at this point.
With all of the people defending Martinez no matter how many times he hurts the team, I ask this: what could be hurt by giving Vedral a chance? Let him start the Minnesota game, and if he's no better than Martinez, then we know for sure. I'm fairly confident he will be better at this point, just because of the lack of negative plays.

Maybe. Or you might see Vedral and McCaffrey next week. Injury looked like it might be more than a one week thing.
I was told he had more talent than Frazier and fans are that shit up. Well, Frazier came back from blood clots. We will see.
Well Frazier missed most of a season with those blood clots, but I don’t think talent was the deciding factor in how quickly he came back. Personally I’ll take Frazier over Martinez any day of the week, but it doesn’t depend on how much time either missed with an injury. Why on Earth would that have anything to do with which one was a better QB?
Could be a “blessing in disguise”. I know it’s hard to say that when there is an injury involved, but we may be forced to see how effective our offense is with somebody other than Martinez. We shall see....
He is a 19 year old who has been told he has an NFL future and might be a heisman candidate. Don't forget that he missed his senior year of HS and the coaches limited his running opportunities to protect his health the last half of last year. He is not comfortable running in traffic, and he runs like he is afraid to get hurt. Vedral doesn't have the arm talent but is certainly more physical and plays with a lot less fear. AM is a much better talent but is having the characteristic sophomore slump because he realizes he has so much to lose. Last year he could play loose because nobody expected anything and he didn't have a backup.
AM looked a lot better when he had a 1000 yard back, a decent offensive line, two all-conference Wrs to throw the ball to...his best option is a true freshman who has been catch his passes for a few months, the next guy he looks to is double covered, his 3rd option is a transfer who was injured during fall camp, and then run...

Small sample size here at Nebraska and at UCF, I hope that you’re right. From what I have seen from his play at UCF and even today, Vedral has the propensity to drop way behind the pocket and take negative plays especially against a good defense
Today he had a pass thrown behind the LOS
From coaching accounts he has improved his arm, I’ve always liked his run game, we’ll see perhaps if his pass game skills have improved

Yes. That is quite apparent. Seems like media and fan hype has gotten to his head a little bit. Mentally he is not there, and hasn't been since S. Alabama. Next man up. He should not be owed anything.
I think it's simply the YIPs. He has had so much placed on him. He had so much pre-season hype. I think it all got to him and he crumbled.
I DO believe he goes out there and tries hard, but I think he tries TOO hard. He forces passes. He tries to take the team upon his shoulders, but fails... everybody is aware of AM. I'm certain every team has a "spy" on AM.
He's in a no-win situation, where he can't use his legs and his center makes him run for his life.
So basically, you think he’s stuck in a “fishbowl” mentality? I did at the beginning of the season as well, but his play shows me different.
I hope y’all remember I called for vedral to at least get a chance in the Illinois game. You guys owe me
I know, if you listen to the kid talk, he sounds great, confident, team guy, then he gets on the field and boom, confidence is gone. I really think a lot of the blame has to go to the O-line and specifically Jurgens. If you're going to bench somebody that is where I'd start. Martinez is not a bum and to say so is just booze talking. The kid cares but maybe there has been a lingering injury issue and if he sits next week, watches Vedral, heels up, maybe he turns it around.
We need your Paypal or Venmo handle.
I think you are right but something is certainly missing his passes are off. He can't throw a quick screen accurately and he did this most of the time last year. I do not know what it is but I think he is a good kid. I also hope he is not seriously injured but sitting for a few games and resetting himself may be what he needs right now
I agree. He actually looked afraid of tucking it in and running when there were open lanes in front of him. By the time he decided to run, the defense closed in on him. And man, is he missing his safety valves. They are wide open and he don't see them.
Another mental midget...nobody loses a game by themself...it's a team game with many plays in the game...if the team and coaches had executed earlier, the game never would have gone to OT...to blame the loss on Martinez is simple minded and idiotic...

Is it his fault that the play calling had about 10 quick passes outside and they didn't work, a whole bunch of which were completed. It seems like Vedral had one or two called for him and they didn't work.
