This is just pathetic man. Unfortunately, it's not going to get any better. JB is looking terrible right now, but we don't have a better option. Yeah let's put it a young, untested QB down 14 on the road, that will probably end well. Then our fans will hate 3 QB's instead of 2! If only we could have a game where things go right on both sides of the ball, instead of everything going wrong on both sides of the ball. It seems like when our D plays well, our offense doesn't respond. When we our D plays poorly. Well our offense still doesn't respond, lol.

We get a zone read for 12 yards and a first down, only to throw 3 straight horrible passes. gotta run the ball, that's our style.

anyway 4-3 isnt so bad is it? :(

The worst part to me is that Rhoads supposably said that he likes what Barnett is doing during halftime to the sideline reporter. My response to that is that Paul Rhoads apparently has vision problems.

I hate to agree, because Barnett has done some really good things for us, but if we get a stop we need to make a change. If you don't want to put Jantz in there, put in Richardson. I don't care.

I will lose my hope for a comeback if we cant produce on this drive.

Either Richardson is the worst quarterback ever, or he's waiting for the game to get completely out of hand so that it isn't "benching" Barnett, in case he wants him to play again this year.

**** it, bench Barnett. He can't get it going, and we'll punt the rest of the game with him in, at least try Richardson...

Seriuosly? U want to just keep moving down the line QBs that are less ready than the previous? It's either Barnett or Jantz. Right now all options suck, but it's too early in the year to give up and start prepping for next year.
I don't see putting Richardson in as giving up at all. Giving up is keeping this horrendous QB in there. He isn't capable of throwing some of the easiest passes out there.

Can anyone tell me what the in the **** Coach Rhoads is waiting for? Barnett has GOT TO GO.

He went to the hook with Jantz too early. Can't bring him back. Barnett is the guy.


The whole offense looks to be panicking. Barnett isn't close on these throws, and Mess has put him in a horrible postion.

I haven't seen this many passes thrown in the dirt in any two week period by any ISU QB... it baffles me.

It could be worse....Jantz could be in there

Jantz can read the entire field, make accurate throws, and has a good arm. Barnett can't do any of those things.

I have no clue what people are watching when they say Barnett is a better QB.

I know people are getting pissy with me, but if we give Sam Richardson a shot and he kicks ***, then we know who is quarterback next year. If we keep JB in, we lose. If Sam Richardson sucks, we stink next year and Hodge is our QB in 2 years (assuming he redshirts.)

All I'm saying is JB sure as hell isn't our future and he isn't making us any better in the present, so what the hell is he doing on the field now.

I vote we have an invincible type open competition to find a qb to finish the season.
