With Q spending probably 90 percent of his time at TE and then just the short yardage stuff at QB, I probably don't want him there throwing passes. Unless he chucks it deep on a fly pattern or something like you were maybe getting at or something super basic. But wouldn't want him dropping back and throwing over the middle. 

Quincy has a strong arm, but as I recall, it didn't lead to many completions.

Could we see a Javon Williams package?

In a way Simon and Quincy can do it all. And in the absolutely stacked backfield and there is a lot of options.

Love Q's dedication to the Hawks, but his short game passing was like a man at war tossing hand grenades.

I'd feel much better if he was given some playing time last year.  

Don't you have to earn playing time?

I think Quincy should play in this situation some. Maybe a grinding drive or two or end of half type offense. He’s such a man when he’s in there and his short yard plays are so devastating for the other team. Plus the other team will have to practice  for his plays. How does a defense adjust for Romfo and Quincy? That’s an interesting concept. Does he ever throw deep in practice still? 

With a bit of a chuckle and then tossing our O-lineman out of the way??  I love the optimism but I can't get there with this team and staff.

You do - but it is good to give your back-ups some playing time.  

[Nodak78]

Well, we have work to according to this article.

How is Romfo's arm strength, is it similar to Tommy where we will likely see more shorter passes? Curious if he will be similar to Tommy but just more ability to run the ball. Hopefully he is just as good on not throwing picks.

It’s not going to be easy.

4-8 is a complete toss up and with as few returning starters as we have, and then add losing a few coaches I'm surprised we are as high as we are in some polls.

According to a post on Facebook, as little as a week ago Feeney's family was planning to attend the Iowa State game - things change fast.

[SIOUX29]

Maybe this has already been answered? Am I going to be able to watch the games on ESPN+ this year, or am I going to have to use the Midco Sports+ App?  I see on the schedule it only says ESPN+ and not Midco Sports+.

[UNDColorado]

It appears some are on Midco+ but most if not all will be on espn+

[SIOUX29]

Thanks.

miller and izzo Convo on twitter....interesting that Miller said that fruchte said that simon's completion % or "data" made romfo the clear starter.........the little "ummm" from izzo before the clip cuts off was the sound of all jerry's fanboys agreeing with that little midget

So you are saying that Ummm was you then eh? 

When I first heard that....I too was a little like.....what....you are going off completion percentsge in practice. So if Romfo throws 10 screen passes in practice and jas 100 percent completions he is better...I too was like WTF. He did say something along the lines if I recall that Romfo had more explosive plays with less attempts or something like that. He also did say those were just one factor and other things are looked at. But ya when I first heard that it made me take notice too. 

We will find out tomorrow if the right  choice was made for QB as there were big implications from it. 

Not gonna lie....in my head when I think of Romfo I think of.....much better runner than Tommy, same arm strength but not as good of accuracy.....and when I think of that I'm like.....ugh. But this is only in my head as I've never really seen Romfo throw,  and is why I asked the question the other day asking how strong of an arm does he have.....but nobody replied. While Tommy didn't have a strong arm, he was very accurate on short to mid distance throws and generally made good decisions.

Not gonna judge a QB on one game.

Nobody has seen him throw in a college game. Let’s let him show us what he’s got and then we can compare contrast with other guys we’ve seen. I’m hoping we see plenty of both he and Jerry in the first 4 games. I want to see what we’ve actually got.
