Re: Why Book is the man for the job

I wouldn't mind seeing him put in. He could have at least get mop up duties when a game gets out of hand, case in point (Buffalo) couldn't hurt one bit. Give him a taste to get his feet wet. I got big questions with this 0 line with little to nothing protection and no run game to boot. Any qb will have a hard time until they both get fixed. Trial by fire, good or bad.

The Bills were loading the box against the run because Siemian was no threat with the pass or his scrambling.

Don't matter what they did, this O line got it's a$$ handed to it in the trenches no run game, and wr's that did little to nothing against their db's. We were overmatched. If the O could have in the least showed up, we could have had a run game with play action, kind of beat them up in the box, we couldn't even do that.

No kidding. We're playing with backups on the o-line and a 3rd string QB. They should get their asses handed to them. What else do you expect?

The D to step up. Everyone already knows our O isn't running. That's no secret.

Yep.

O line play was low energy. Tony Jones Jr had no shot.

Re: Why Book is the man for the job

As far as Ian Book goes ... I think it will depend on how much fight this team shows over the next two games before CSP decides to see what he has from the rookie.

99.9 % of us on the forum can agree Trevor ain't it.

Watching Book's ND film vs Bama, as well as his PreSeason Saints work, I've not seen anything yet that'd lead me to believe he's anywhere near an NFL QB...

Well, Taysom Hill needs to get it together and start on Thursday vs Dallas.

No way he got that new contract to "sit" the rest of the season.
