Purdy is QB 1- other notes

[king_kong_]

Then enlighten everyone here and lay out everything HH has won in his football career as a QB.

He started and was the best offensive player in 100% of the games Nebraska has won in 2023.

I really don’t know why you’re trying so hard (just kidding, you’d disagree with me if I said water is wet).

Do you also think Rhule is full of shit when he uses that word to describe the only quarterback to lead his team to a win all year?

I was very impressed with Chubba’s first 3 drives of the year. The rest - and the game - went as expected.

That's it? That's all you got?

Good lord. Can't people stop their bickering for at least one day on Thanksgiving?

 

[king_kong_]

Won the spring game in ‘21, too

Are you looking for pop Warner stats or something?

You have your opinion. I (and Rhule) have ours. This is America.

I don’t understand arguing proven facts but to each their miserable own.

Sure, what did he do in high school? You have repeatedly said this guy is nothing but a winner so what makes that so? Has he ever won anything in his career? I'm not from Nebraska so I had no clue who he is or anything he's ever done with the exception of a few games this year.

I don’t think his small little school won state but I don’t know. ‘21 spring game was my first glimpse of him.

Won on the last play of the game. Very refreshing considering we’d been subjected the losingest QB in NU history for 3 years leading up to it.

He’s 5-2 this year. 5-3 if you want to be gracious to sims and put the maryland game on him even though he played 2 series and committed the only turnover that didn’t lead to points.

And he’s banging the hottest vball player. Because winners win.

If you think she's the hottest VB player your judgement is more screwed up than I thought. 😂

I admittedly don’t follow or give a f*ck about volleyball.

If she’s not the hottest, is she the best player?

You’re welcome to correct me there. You would definitely know better than me.

So HH is 3-3 against big boy football with the defense giving up 7, 9, and 14 points in those "wins". Glad you cleared up what makes him a "winner".

If you want to count the Maryland game as an HH L, that’s up to you.

2 series, 0-0 when he went out.

Again, up to you. Jeff Sims says thank you.

oops sparty scored 20

17 < 20

Oops. Might wanna take another stab at reading what I said. It’s ok, you’re broken so no one is expecting you to go out there and win much these days.

You’re right. I thought you were attempting to say we’d have a better record, not the same record. Hand up.

I’m not going to argue fantasies with tin foil hat types.

“Anthony Grant would be Leveon Bell in a different offense”

It’s all real in your mind. Good for you, kiddo!

And happy thanksgiving!

Aww. You think of that yourself?

Proud of you, kid!

Thankful for you.

(You’d never say that about me despite the countless hours of entertainment and engagement I provide. Sad. And petty.)

Lately this board reminds me of the fight scene off Anchorman where everyone is randomly fighting each other.

 

[Sinomatic]

Here’s the problem with this line of thinking. The games HH won, would Purdy have also won? The game Purdy lost, would HH have lost as well?

They played different opponents, and I believe Purdy, against the same competition, would have won just as many as HH, and maybe one or two the HH lost. But that’s just an opinion on my part, there’s no way to prove it.

It’s very difficult to compare them just by wins and losses, simply because the competition level isn’t the same.

Here's the problem with your line of thinking in that first thought: You can't really say if Purdy would have won or not. Just like I also can't say that HH would have won where Purdy lost vs Wisconsin. Because quite simply they didn't play those games. We can only go by their success or lack thereof.

But I would say to you that it is probably a very real factor that Purdy could not be considered by the coaches seriously when he was injured earlier in the season and HH was not. Just how HH is injured now, was last game as well as we all found out later, and which is a substantial reason why Purdy is QB 1 right now.

To your last sentence: I would say that you take a good look at Northwestern whose record is the same as Wisconsin's, so I would say that HH and Purdy have both played competition that is similar in strength obviously. You are what your record says you are. However, I could argue HH beat his 6-win opponent where Purdy did not. And you're right, the competition level hasn't been equal, HH had to go up against the number 2 team in the nation with them having the added boost of organizing some help outside the rules.



Wins and record above wishful thinking and rhetoric.

Here's to a W tomorrow. GO BIG RED

Your entire first paragraph is exactly what I said. That’s all I was saying. Since they can’t play the same teams, there’s no way to know how they would have done against them.

As I was saying, it’s hard to say one is better than the other, especially when the other has one game this season under his belt.

That’s all.

And yes, here’s to a win tomorrow!

Seriously? Go back and watch the Northwestern game and Wisconsin game and tell me which QB played a better game. Nebraska beat Northwestern because they literally had a hard time getting a 1st down.

You leave out the leadership factor by design or was that an accident?

One led the team to a W and the other did not.

There are different types of leaders. While in the Navy I was not the charismatic inspirational type of leader. I was the technical expert type of leader. I became the leader of my group in E division because I gave a shit and I knew what I was doing. I did not inspire others to do their work, I did provide them with everything they would need to succeed though and our mission was accomplished and in fact the security of the Enterprise was greatly improved because I fixed some things regarding ships water line lighting systems.

What kind of leaders are they? One guy has W's and the other guy does not.

We'll see if all the stats and facts about being a technically sound QB can get Purdy the W's. I do know Zac Lee had it all according to the coaches. He sucked plain and simple. He had all the technique apparently. So much so he actually got drafted. I don't care about form. I don't care about technique. You can F right off with technique if you lose games at the helm.

We need a winner. Not a what if, and, or but.

Of course we need a winner. Not sure, but who was favored in the games HH won? Was Nebraska favored in some of those he lost?

Nebraska was not favored against wisconsin.

I just don’t get the notion of saying he’s not a winner because he lost the only start he’s made this year against a favored opponent, that he took to overtime at their house.

 

[ATX Husker]

Man, how bad has the punting been this year....smh....you almost forget about it because it is taken for granted

What is going on there? Injured? Its like he forgot how to punt.

 

[PeliniTheCrutch]

Won the spring game in ‘21, too

You seriously just said he won the spring game.

I think we’re all good moving forward here.

I mean, I'm just playing devil's advocate here regarding HH. Although I am sincere about getting W's. Ultimately I don't watch games to see the players progress, that's what parents are for.

I watch the games because my State is being represented on a field of competition and I want to see them win.

How do you call Chubba a winner with a straight face? I'm not talking about the man personally. Personally I might like him enough to accept him marrying one of my daughters. But dude is not a winner....so far.

HH is a winner. Just for the record....which is ultimately what counts right?

Also for the record, I hope Chubba kicks the whole ass of Iowa......which we all know is a A LOT of ASS.....hat.

Purdy's performance was the best for a Nebraska QB all year and that's a fact. He did his part to win the game based on the QB play all year long....

I’m not calling Chubba a winner, but I am saying, based on what I’ve seen, that Chubba is the better QB. Given more time, I think the proof would be evident on the field.

Just my opinion, no way to prove it.

Well I hope he ends up making this a hard decision for Rhule. I hope he kills it tomorrow and I hope he destroys our opponent in the bowl game.

If he does that, it’s an easy decision for Rhule. Purdy is the QB1 going into the spring, where it’s an open competition that includes a portal QB addition.

It's all or nothing. He gets the glory if the team wins and he gets compared more stringently to the back up if he doesn't. The turnovers are killing this team. If he can avoid turnovers AND get the wins. I think that makes it an easy decision. If he's handing out the pastries and yet winning, then it's a little harder.

Got to remember Haarberg did lead the scoring side of the ball to secure 5 wins. HH is injured not fired.

Also, 5 > 2.

 

[SomedayHusker]

I haven’t seen anyone - myself included - say anything about “not as good”.

It’s like you’re trying to get the least amount of people to take you seriously. You can’t actually be so dense to think people will just forget your ridiculous crusade both FOR HH and AGAINST “noodle arm weak loser” Chubba Purdy.

You’re trying to rewrite history again and you’re dumb enough to steeply underestimate these people’s ability to easily see it. The jig is up

 

[HuskerO]

You can’t answer my question because you know the answer. I don’t think you’re frapping, I think you’re a coward and you just proved it by not answering a simple question. As they say, when you can’t answer the question you were asked honestly, flip to the question you wish you were asked. I can’t respect that.

But I’m no coward, so I’ll answer yours. Both QBs have looked like dog shit. Both. but the tie breaker goes to the one that actually has won a game… winning to me is what matters and until Chubba proves he can do that, he just can’t win. I know a lot of people from AZ HS football and they tell me the same thing, he was way better than his brother in HS and is playing scared in college.

So many people keep thinking guys that lose over and over again are going to flip a switch and start winning. It generally doesn’t happen that way in anything. But I hope Chubba proves me wrong. I’m not spiteful like some that were critical of HH when he was winning

Comparing solely their W/L without any context is so dumb and lazy. Look at who they played.

2022: Chubba didn't start vs Illinois. He came in after we were down 20-9.

Minnesota, lost the game. Did nothing after our first 2 possessions.

Michigan, got hurt right before halftime I think, but it wouldn't have mattered.

2023: NIU & LT, easy opponents.

Michigan, same result as Purdy did in 2022.

Illinois, not a good team.
2022 Illinois team >>>> 2023 Illinois team.

NW & Purdue, both bad.

Michigan St, not a good team to lose to. 3 turnovers I believe (he was lucky to not alhave a 4th in the endzone right before half).

Maryland, HH was clearly hurt. He couldn't do anything.

If you flip the games HH and Purdy played, the results are most likely the same. Only possible outcome difference could've been 2023 Michigan St & Maryland (I don't blame HH for Maryland loss).
