9-4. Damn good year. Hell yeah

Nah...pretty sure there is some seething hatred. No sense in the commentary today otherwise

I don’t hate Will. He seems like a likable guy, but there are some huge gaps in his play (taking hits, downfield passes, indecision, among others) and it should be fair to call those out when they lead to a loss of offensive production.

Also, it should be fair game to say some variation of “dammit Will” when he makes a poor decision.

Happy for the team to get a W. Nice tribute to ML

 

[POTUS]

It’s fair to say that we should be winning because of Will yet often we win despite him.

Saying or posting "dammit will" isn't quite the same as "he better be selling insurance next year"....or is it.

Glad to get the win. 9-4 is very good in my book. It will be interesting to see how the final staff shakes out and if we're able to pick up any nice additions through the portal.

Agreed. I've said worse when Mangum would chase terrible pitches, didn't mean I wanted him to fail, or that I even wanted him benched.

He played better in 2nd half for sure. I would say it was a total C + from qb today. Second half brought that up.

Sorry you guys who hate Will. He was crap in the first half but played very well in the second half. That TD throw was money. He led us to a 9 win season. How many quarterbacks have done that? Not too many.

 

[Trojanbulldog19]

Looked like that last lateral was an illegal forward pass. I guess it doesn’t matter now.

I thought the same when I saw it live

 

[PBDog]

I would've given it to Jett, but whatever. I don't care who gets MVP - just happy we got the W.

Agree - all of front 5 should have been MVP

 

[Coast_Dawg]

I think they should look at all options at QB. It’s just comical how much it bothers you.

oh and bye again.

Thank you

I don’t think that’s that bad, honestly. Doesn’t rise to the level of “hate”.

It’s not like he’s being called a useless shitbаg or having people lament that his mother didn’t have an abortion.

 

[Drebin]

It should be obvious but I don’t mean you hate him like personally hate him. You hate the way he plays quarterback and want him to be replaced. Aggressively negative if you will.

ETA: You might call me a sunshine pumper but I don’t think Will has played bad enough for all the relentless negativity that some on here give him. Is he a great quarterback. No, but he is a hell of a lot better than most quarterbacks who have played here. I just think he doesn’t deserve all the negativity he gets.

Then don't use the word hate. It's low IQ.

 

[TaleofTwoDogs]

Where is this officiating crew from? Based on missing the obvious "running into the kicker", my guess is the ACC.

My guest is from BAMA. (See what I did there?)

Is he a great QB, No. Check
Is he a hell of a lot better than most? Check
As the team QB is he subject to more criticism that other players? Huge Check.

It frustrates a lot of fans that they don't see a lot of improvement between last year's Will and this year's Will. The lack of growth on his part really puts the brakes on the MSU football train trying to get to that magic 10 win season. Maybe he will find the IT factor his senior year but I'm afraid what you see is what you get.
