The more football I watch (50+ years now) the more I realize that the QB position will make a break any team.
A very good QB can make a poor team good and a good team great and thus the opposite is true. A poor QB will make a good team poor and a great team good.
We need look no further than last nights game with a Clemson and Bama, one team had a very good QB (Clemson) and the other team had only a good QB (Bama)...
Other than Clemson's QB was the rest of the team world beaters? They have and above average line and one very good WR (Williams) and a host of very solid players and with that combination they took down Goliath (Bama) and all those first round NFL players....
So if any team should understand what poor/inconsistent QB play does to hurt a team, it is us Nebraska.
This why I am so excited about next year and the future for this team. To actually have a solid QB that will more times than not be a bonus instead of a liability.
No more 8-9 defensive guys in the box taking away the run and making Taylor or Tommy beat them with the pass....
A solid QB will make the whole team better, consistent offense, less pressure on the defense.
A good QB can pick a defense apart, Watson was able to get rid of the ball before Bama's pass rush could get home and that was against a press at the LOS type defense on WR...
Anyway finally in 2017 we have some HOPE, thank God....
