QB Controversy

[sutz]

Naw, no controversy. Geno is the guy this year. Lock is a good backup and that's probably where it's at right now.

Although I will say that maybe the team is better when it doesn't rely on the pass thrower as much. Might be a good idea to take this approach with Geno when he's back.

Yeah. Things opened up in the 2d half when K9 got going. I see Geno finishing the season, then there's a choice. I could see Lock being the guy next year if they can sign him back.

I'd say whomever has the best week of practice will get the start

It’s Geno’s team when he’s healthy.

It was a great game, but Lock is a one read QB. How many passes did he throw where the DB nearly picked it. On the last drive there were three (pass to Fant, pass to DK where he caught it on his leg, and the pass to Tyler in double coverage).

The more that Lock plays the more confident he becomes, and the better he gets. His throws weren’t that good tonight, but his decision-making has been better as of late.

Listen I hate to be the bearer of bad news to you Lock fans but I hope you realize there is 0% chance Pete plays him over Geno once Geno gets to 100%. Trust me on this. I think Geno is better but I am saying this from my knowledge on Pete Carrol.

I think most people realize that.

I mean, PC is the guy who's still using Dallas for KR/PR over Eskridge or KMac.. . and yeahhh lol "best man for the position"

What is with the weird anti-Geno obsession with some of our fanbase?

What is with the weird Pro-Geno obsession with some of our fanbase?

Lock offers more flexibility but Geno makes decisions quicker…that is a tough call for Pete.

Geno making quick decisions ? Not consistently

You have to give it to Lock after this game, you just have to. He saved Pete's ass.

But... he wasn't really good? Even the TD drive he was 5/10 and got bailed out on like 3 of the completions.

I'm so happy for the win, but Eagles pass D is bad but outside of that last drive our run game was what kept us in the game. Walker was the actual MVP of the game.

The way you started this comment made me think you were going to list ways that Lock is different from Geno.

 

[getnasty]

Seems like Drew's pocket presence at least keeps us out of more 3rd and longs. I could be nust making stuff up here but at least that's what it feels like.

Geno had the ball at the end to win it against Dallas and he took a predictable sack. Drew made the plays that he needed to make and the rest of the team rallied around him to make it easier for him. Im not saying whether hes better than Geno or not but he did what he needed to to get the win and save Petes ass. Pete needs to reward him with another start to see how he continues. Also, until Geno is 100% healthy, I dont want him to even think about startingm

+1

The poll decides it.

Lock is the starter.

Dude he led a 92 yard game winning drive and capped it with a fantastic throw. Just enjoy it for a little bit

Just like RW, he'll get "better" real quick now to make sure the competition is back on the bench.

Yeah way different than Geno who actually throws the pick in those exact situations.

 

[DeSeahawk]

Regardless of what happens from here on out, there's no need to see Geno in a Hawks game again. Let him walk.

Yeah, gotta agree. Now I'm not saying Lock is the answer, but he is the cheaper bridge while a rookie learns. He's younger than Geno and could have a higher ceiling.
