6956, there's no "probably" re: the staff's qb1 decision but chandler is gonna play & shocky is gonna lose his **** when rogers runs a speed option package & PITCHS the ball to jaydn ott in wide open space on the edge for an EPIC touchdown!!!
yeah shlocky will probably stroke out when the cannon on tightwad hill KABOOMS which will then solve a lot of knowlton's problems
Sure. It makes sense to start Mendoza since Rogers did not play well enough in camp to earn the starters job. But while you stroke out while Rogers picthes the ball to Ott who explodes for a big play, I will stroke out if Mendoza continues his turnover tendencies from last season. He had 10 ints and 9 fumbles (5 lost) in 8 games.
I am not sold on playing 2 guys over the course of the season. Unless it is due to injury. I want one guy to take the job and keep it with strong performance leading to wins. UCD game hopefully is not in doubt and both can get some snaps. But Auburn is a different animal. It will be hot and the crowd hostile. The edge athletes for Auburn will be athletic. Can the Cal OTs handle them well enough for either QB to perform well.
Mendoza gets the first shot at being the guy. But if he throws picks and fumbles again all his leadership etc goes away. It is about performance. I am not sold on Rogers either. But his history is better.
