I want to see Jerry out there as much as the next guy. But everyone needs to chill out. He is still only in his second year with the program. He will have his time. In the meantime, let’s be happy Simon is getting much needed reps before conference play begins.  When he is playing in front of 19000 plus fans in the Fargodome in 3 weeks, it will prove to be worth it.

The pass that was INT on the tunnel screen, wasn’t totally on him because of the quick timing of it, that pick the OC could also be blamed because earlier ISU blew that play up. 
 

I still feel Jerry will get his time either packaged in or if Simon gets dinged up, we are running more things through Simon and having him run more. Coaches would not do that if there is not a quality backup. SDSU has two JR QB’s on roster I believe and they did not leave last year. (SDSU’s success helps), if we make playoffs and make a deep run, Jerry and others will likely stay IMO especially if we have blowout games where he can get meaningful reps.

Mr treys stats were next level but clearly lynch's eyes didn't see the truth against incarnate words and woffords

C'mon man, I know you need to be negative about something in a blow out game, but Romfo made some good passes that were downfield. 

when did being honest become negative.......

romfo is the worst QB at und in my lifetime......

some of these/those throws...come on man.

maybe not his call?

It was: 

Fruechte said he also looked at leadership when picking his quarterback.

"We looked at the opportunity of being in front of the team and how you handle that," Fruechte said. "He does a great job communicating with our guys. He's not a loud person. He's quiet, not a rah-rah guy. He's an every-day guy who competes his butt off."

Belquist seems to think it was the OC. 
There are other articles about Romfo being told by the OC hes the starter. Not hard. 
 

“He knows how to win, he knows how to control a game, and I think Coach Fruechte saw that and liked that,” Wide Receiver and Team Captain Bo Belquist said. “He played really well this fall camp. He controlled the ball, didn’t have too many turnovers, just played smart.”

First drive should have been ground and pound with Z....but we decided to throw.  Trainwreck of a series.  

First play.....easy throw to Bo....ten yards too short..........again.

couple plays later...........easiest TD throw/catch ever and simon underthrows by 20 yards and puts on the opposite shoulder which made bo fall down instead of walking into the end zone for 45-7 lead

Your bitching on a great win.  Take breath and step back we are on the move.

Yes, he missed some easy throws. We get it. Still had more passing yards than any game last season and on 65.7%. Personally, I think he can correct some things and make those throws he missed. You seem to want him to fail for whatever reason.

haha....yeah want him to fail.....

you must be new to und football for the last 20 some years....

if it ain't the defense....it's the offense....no offense....have a defense....special teams have sucked since the guy left for Bismark and kostitch took over....(seen improvements this year tho....a little).....

I do think we could do some fun stuff this year with a vertical passing game to go with the intermediate and the rb's and wr's and the online is geling....

the defense is playing as a team and looking like defense of old under bubba (d2 bubba)....Craig o is a mean sob...linebackers looking good so far.......

the most important position in football is the QB and after 3 games we don't have one......just imo but if he keeps winning he'll keep the other qb's on the bench I guess
