Anderson plays like Bryant so keep him in. What do we have to lose? Need to play to win here, not to keep it close.

You make too much sense. Cut it out.

That being said, if they keep up with this QB shuffle farce, or let Boyle play out the second half, that just shows you they're content with letting this game slip away. Makes no sense why they wouldn't just keep Anderson in with nothing to lose. Our running game has been shut down and Temple has nothing to be afraid of from Boyle; nor should they be. At least Anderson is more capable of keeping their defense off balance.

I guess nobody realizes this is Andersen 's first year with the team and that he was recently converted to FB. Not that he can't do it he just doesn't have the reps.

In no competitive world can Tim Boyle be our #2 in 2016. That has to be Tyler Davis or a JUCO. We can't move the ball with him at QB and that's the most important characteristic of a QB.

Put in Anderson for the entire 2nd half and run read-option plays like we do with Sheriffs. At least we are used to the blocking schemes involved with those plays.

Believe it or not (and I hardly believe it myself), this is still a winnable game. But we're going to need an offense that can move the ball. That means no Boyle. Take away his helmet, lace up a pair of cement shoes and hand him a clipboard and headset. Read-option Anderson and mix in a little wildcat and hope the defense will continue to battle.

I'm holding out hope for Davis next year. Have any of you seen a recent picture of him? He is beyond cut. Balis worked some magic with that kid.

edit: This is from just August...

I think we've put a lot of good ideas on the table - another problem solved.

At least the announcers are praising Temple's D and not mocking our offense. We know we're bad; we don't need salt rubbed in the wounds.

My heart literally dropped when I saw Boyle under center.

...It's still dropping.

So it's basically up to the defense and special teams to put points on the board....i
