Inside word: CJ is in fact hobbled by injury

[David1979]

An injury doesn't make you hold on to the ball too long and not feel pressure in the pocket.

Either way the qb production has to improve. No urgency,no attacking down field. All game long annoucessers saying inexperienced NW backfield vs veteran qb who didn't get it done.

Difficult to attack downfield when the o-line is allowing the defense to pour through them like crap the a goose! Football 101, if a team wants to stretch the field the QB and receivers need time to let the play develop. In addition, without a reliable running game the defense does not bite on play action.

We should recruit a 4 star, All State, athletic QB, from an Iowa H.S. that can run like Brad Banks and can touch the ball 36 times a game instead of once or twice. Things that make you go hmmm.

I think I see what you just did there....

I remember when cj was the one being begged for by the fans

Well now he's the starter so WE WANT THE BACKUP!

Considering everybody had him pegged as a top 5 senior QB, well, pretty much everybody was

I assume "everybody" thought Iowa would have something resembling an offensive line.
