What do we do at QB from here?

[Dear_Leader]

Imagine Tommy Arbstrong on this team.
Dude would get us to 8-4 out of sheer force of will.

Gotta have a Shane Falco riding bench don’t we?

 

[Husker_in_OK]

I haven't seen anything from Sims that HH isn't capable of doing and HH can handle snaps. No point in playing Sims, he's not the future. At least with Haarberg, he might turn out to be a capable game manager.

I think this would be the best case scenario. A game manager with our defense, would be good enough for 6 wins. We won’t come close to that if we continue to ride with Sims

Don’t think it’s Purdy even though he is supposedly the better thrower

At least HH looks like he has some moxy

 

[Alcaus]

3 100% on him
The fumbled handoff was more on Irvin iyam but I wouldn't argue if you put that on Sims too.

The replay was Sims. He was short af on that handoff.

You just go full Cockeye mode and play ball control and mash as much as you can. Work on your run schemes and protect the ball with anyone other than Sims.

Did we get a former high ranked croot to walk on? He can’t be worse. Give him a shot

I agree he was, but Gabe also tried to grab it with his hands as he cut because of shit OL blocking. He didn’t let it get to him because of the poor OL play.

Ervins hands were on the ball but Sims was weak with the handoff.

Looked like he was expecting the ball in the stomach earlier but it hit him in the hands. I’ll have to rewatch bc I initially thought it was Ervin.

Either way, Sims has no feel for the QB position right now in almost any aspect outside his read game vs Minny was great.

 

[Fargo Husker]

Sadly I think we’re stuck with Sims this year. I’d imagine we try to find a stopgap portal QB and give Kaelin some time to develop. Hopefully get Manske to commit for the ‘25 class.

That was actually a TE that got blown up on that play. A play design that has a TE blocking the DT is a whole other can of worms to unpack

Good point, I haven’t re-watched it. Just saw the dude blowing up the play and Gabe coming to a halt instead of running into the handoff

 

[Herbie]

He has to be one of the dumbest qbs ever for Nebraska.

 

[Mr.Bojangles]

What do we do from here at QB? Clearly Sims has been sucking massive dong, but do we even have a 2nd viable option? Can he be coached to be better?

Cheerleader couldn't hurt.

 

[Herbie]

“I thought he did really well,” Nebraska right guard Nouredin Nouili said of Heinrich Haarberg. “He came in and knew what he was supposed to do and took care of us, too. I thought he did a really good job.”

Could be an interesting week

Our TEs aren't great blockers

TA is the Chuck Norris of Nebraska QBs.

Sims may be out a few weeks so we may see HH.

I hope by "few" you mean ten or eleven.
