QB play since #17

[cowpoke pride]

@TheRealUW got me thinking in another thread about quarterback play since #17. How would you rank overall body of work?

Give me:
1 Peasley- so much better than I was expecting when the "trade" for Williams was made
2 Chambers
3 Williams
4 Kayden Anderson
5 Svoboda
6 Vander Waal

Peasley should really have two rankings. He was not very good in his first year. He was vastly better in his second year. It was like two different QB's.

He was definitely better in his second year. But when you look at his stats versus other QBs during Bohl's time, he stacks up well both years.

You're forgetting a couple with a few less starts. Nick Smith (great teammate by all accounts) was shockingly bad in his action.

1 Peasley-
2 Chambers
3 Williams
4 Kayden Anderson
5 Jayden Clemons
6 Svoboda
7 Vander Waal
8 Nick Smith

The fact that we have started two QB’s worse than Svboda is wild.

I would not put Svoboda on the list. Guy was next to useless, except to papa bohl

Clemons threw the worst pick I've ever seen at the end of the Boise st. game. He's at the bottom of the list. Vander Waal was bad, but he played out of his mind in the 4th quarter of the Air Force game to bring us back in the snow game. And Bohl did a good job of hiding his deficiencies. I would have him at number 4.

If I remember correctly, Nick Smith started only 2 games. He was awful in both. But still, we didn't have to see him for an entire season like some on this list.
Overall, it's shocking at just how amazingly untalented this group is. But they certainly had help with receivers who couldn't get open or catch the ball when it did come their way.
The truly crazy thing is that the offense has been even worse post Bohl. I didn't even think it was possible. But it turns out 3 plays and a punt is better than 2 plays and a turnover. Who'd a thunk it?

Cant argue about the list. I was one of those who doubted Peasley and called for him to be benched, but his heart and toughness won me over by the time he left.

I also miss Bohl’s offense compared to what Sawvel has unveiled.

Bohl sure as hell wouldn’t have put Svoboda the TE in to throw a pass on the 1 yard line against AF or run multiple flea flickers with a statue of a QB.

I really hope he is done taking shots to the head.

Ultimate toughness but borderline crazy what he put himself through.
