Not that it really matters, but guessing BB is gonna anoint Altmyer as QB1 as soon as today.
That was always my assumption but I do wonder truly how close Paddock was in the QB competition. Should we be confident that there is an actual, competent backup QB this year?

I'm fairly confident (given that practices are closed) that Paddock can be a competent caretaker QB. Am not at all confident that he can lead a comeback. Leary is better suited for that, but he lacks experience.

Altmyer has good wheels, but he'd better be smart about it. Much rather have him slide than take a hit, 95+% of the time.

I’m guessing if it was/is close they’d go with Luke for the longer term investment.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that Bruce Feldman has ties to PSU.

That... (do we still call them tweets? Or do I have to refer to them as exes??) just screams "I looked at PSU, Michigan, and OSU, oh and I heard the name Braelon Allen before!"

If Isaiah gets hurt, our season is pretty much done. The risk/reward of putting him on punt returns doesn't add up for me
How do you figure? IW Is not the whole team. We have plenty of WR's that are ready to contribute. Malik Elzy most likely would be a starter for us if it weren't for the other 3. WR is the one position that i'm not worried about.
