Patrick is the first QB in years that throws while moving in the forward motion. He looked good against MN and really surprised us when running and scrambling. He needs a team to win but it can be done... GBR.

He will be fine. It's finally his turn, and he will show what he can do. Wouldn't it be fantastic if he pulled out an impossible win?!

He looked pretty good against MN but the line is so bad. If the line can give him any time I think he will do ok.

sadly, langsdorf will continue to place the team in jeopardy and Patrick will not be able to overcome langsdorfs pathetic attempt at being a coach. absent langsdorf and riley, Patrick will do fine.

The offensive line cannot or will not be able to protect him. Without protection Penn State will continue to sack him throughout the game. Otherwise I think that he would do ok, maybe 1 interception.

Poor OL and no running game. PSU can tee off from the beginning of the game going at the QB.

It won't matter who is Q-backing the offense. The O-line will still be the same.

If we cant beat Northern Illinois, Northwestern, or Minnesota, how the hell are we gonna beat an actual good team like Penn State or Iowa?

He's a step or two back from Lee with reading the D and getting rid of the football, so I think he'll take a lot of sacks. It's going to be a real ugly game I'm afraid. Maybe 100 - 0.

I do not care HOW the punting is done. Only that it leads to WINS.

If something is broken, what does it hurt to try something different. Insanity- Doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

I like this style of punting. With the roll-out, it keeps the defense honest by keeping them in position in case of runs/throws by the punter.

Anything less than a drop kick just isn't trying. Additionally, NU had a punter who averaged 44 yards a kick and he had to transfer for a player to be named later. Maybe get the rugby guy in and set in place before upending what would have been a solid punting game.

Too much hassle (200 miles away) for an unknown event.

The event is a non-starter compared to the structure of actual plays and the support of young men working to find their place on the team.

If I want to see a carnival or a faire I'll go see one. This change shows fear of being a competitor on the part of Rhule and NU Athletics. It's embarrassing.

Losing the best recruiting tool of the spring and losing the money it would bring in is not smart in my opinion.

It's not a game. This was our tradition. Not a good decision on Rhule's part.
