Yeah, people forget that MOST p4 QBs aren't good. Why? P4 defenses are tough.

Jake is above average, and that's about all you can expect. If you have above average in one position group, you work on strengthening the other groups. A stronger Oline, for example, would make Jake better.

PFF grades put Retzlaff as #3 in B12 behind Sanders & Leavitt. If he works like he did last off-season, he'll be better

But CB says that Jake sucks and needs to be benched.

very few people are saying that, he does need to get better though

He needs to stop with the horrible turnovers. No more fumbled snaps inside

LakeshowCougs

a lot are saying they want him to transfer

Socrates Johnson

Lots of people need to consider this message too

Soupie

That's my hope for him too. He's shown he can make improvements.

That's fair. Release point, decisions under pressure & touch would be my hopes for him.

Soupie

I would say he needs to mostly work on decision-making when pressured/blitzed

The eyeroll is funny. Not sure how you can look at

He was also injured

Then maybe he shouldn't have played?

Huge Manatee

Then the coaches made a poor decision not to play Bohanon

Beggar

So why was he playing then? Is the QB depth that bad? The regression is definitely concerning

A lot of people wanted him benched at half of asu

He did play better in the second half

We were in the game because of Jake.

QBR is a stupid stat invented by ESPN it says what they want it to say

Kajdin

Anytime there is no transparency to something you have to question the information. I don't use QBR for anything

Will he be able to develop touch?

kimdaddy35

He definitely needs to learn to not throw a fastball on every pass

Beggar

Can we sticky this so half the board can shut up and move on

His accuracy is well below average, however

Beggar

He’s hard to evaluate. Inconsistent passer with poor traditional stats, but he

And the #12 ranked QB is in the CCG…sad
