It's time to bench Jake. Coaches don't trust him to pass in the red zone.

Gerry hasn't played a game in almost three years, Jake is 9-1 this year as a starter.

They apparently do trust him by continuing to let him throw fades.

He has had a couple of mediocre games but he has also had some really good ones.

He had a bad one last night against a bad defense. Even Houston scored 2 TDs

Classic fan behavior. Call for the backup QB. JR did not have a good game

Whatever that means, he was given a chance to become great, and he did.

JR next year will be the same as this year. He doesn’t have “it” and never will. He’s a known commodity

I know Jo Beck was an NFL QB. I think JR probably isn't. So yes. I see that gap.

2004 Beck was a true sophomore return missionary. Jake is a redshirt junior.

Beck also had arm talent and a head for the game

Beck wasn't a redshirt junior with one more year of eligibility in 2004.

2004 Beck was the exact same age and same year in the program as 2024 Retz.

I say stick with Jake this year but hit the portal hard. Maybe borrow some of that AJ money
