Jacob Park

I'd like to see more of Park. He looked pretty good for his first time out there, and had three nice completions called back for penalties and at least one drop that wasn't on him. If he can make strides from here, he looks like he has the potential to be the better passer.

If that is the case, if we're not going to commit to running the ball, Park could be the guy.

He looked good in is first outing. Just like Lanning did, Richardson did, Roach did, and so on and so on and so on. Anyone see a pattern here.

He does throw a nice ball.

He had nice passes called back. He didn't turn the ball over. Lazard was out for most of his snaps it seemed.

#Parklife. I think we'd actually benefit from a 2 QB system. Tougher to prepare for.

I think a big difference is just how bad Lanning has been though.

Park should get first team reps and an opportunity to compete for a starting spot. I like Joel and he has shown flashes but he is making some really poor decisions.

Can you throw a better spiral than Park? It's actually pretty.

He hasn't been ruined by Rhoads like all the others listed. That gives me hope for him and is why I think Lanning may be too far gone.

Definitely looks like he has a good arm with potential to be an accurate passer and throw the deep ball.

Tell that to Texas. They've had a mediocre QB the last two years and surrounded him with 4 and 5 star athletes. And they sucked. Hell - we beat them 24-0!!!!!

They bring in a true freshman that has the skills - and they knock off top 10 Notre Dame week one.

QB is far and away the most important position on the field. It can't guarantee a high level of success, but it sure as hell can put a ceiling on it.

That was all offensive line opening that up. Texas put up 240 yards rushing. Passing gets pretty easy when defense can't stop the run. 5 passes added up to 200 passing yards. Hammer the ball on the ground for some yards gives some good opportunities for vertical passing game, even with an average quarterback.

If we're going to talk about Jacob Park can we take a minute and discuss what the **** is going on with this haircut? It looks like a guy with curly hair is standing directly behind him.

He sat down and said "give me the Larry Fine".

I thought Park had a good field awareness and his progressions looked a lot quicker than Lanning.

But I think it comes down to which guy takes the offense as a leader. We need a leader, a field General that chews a receivers/linemans ass for a penalty and is respected for it.

That is what a young and undisciplined team needs. A leader on the field to make a more cohesive unit.

One of them needs to take the reigns and pull hard.

They both suck = Park had the 1's at WR and could not score a TD against the backups.Team is a dogpile and no getting around it. This season is toast at 0-2 - can see maybe 2 chances to win and that is suspect.

Can't believe we just realized this. We need to sign 12 QBs a class and toss a different one in each game. They'll all look amazing.

I love you man! and yeah, the dude has a cannon for an arm.

 

[VTXCyRyD]

Park's numbers were not very good, but there were a couple of drops. Overall I think he looked to have good arm strength and looked comfortable in the pocket. But he wasn't pressured nearly as much as Lanning and faced 2nd string defenders for the most part. I liked what I saw though. Is he the answer moving forward? I have no idea, but Lanning just flat out sucks. I have never seen a QB who is so bad at throwing those short out passes.

Park should start and Lanning should be used more in just short yardage situations or maybe in the redzone some.
