2021 Verbal: Cole Payton

[semobison]

Does anyone really believe Cam would be the 4th Bison QB to be drafted into the NFL? It could be decades before we have another. We have been very fortunate and our fans are spoiled! Our offense has become way too predictable and stagnant. That’s on the coaching staff.

Defensively, in the first game of the year when Drake ran the ball down the field for a TD on their first possession, we should have been worried. Worst Bison defense in well over a decade!

If coaching staff believes Payton is truly a special talent, then we should have a QB Competition this Spring/Fall.

Pre game coach Stig said they planned to "bounce the a gap power and control qb run"
Basically a disguised way of saying....bison gonna have to win it on Cams arm...
Will be the recipie in MVC from here on out until proven I'm afraid
Not all teams have the personnel jacks do.....bison need to at minimum keep wr & te positions stacked
....and teach Kobe to protect the ball
That fumble took what moxie we had out....

Imagine if we used screen passes to both TEs and RBs. Or maybe some quick slants or some hitch routes. We used to do these plays all the time. Cam can make these throws. We never see them being called. We shouldn’t need to run the ball every time for 4-7 yds. Short passing also opens up long passing. Audible out of a running play if there are 8 in the box rather than running it to run it.

I'm not of the belief they possess the ability to actually make the right call. I love Zeb Noland, but in what universe was that competition even close that you had to wait until almost the start of the season? Based on things I have seen, this staff values experience over skill/upside.

With that said, they refuse to let Cole throw. So either that is because he is awful or they are awful. Or both. Based on what I saw Sunday, I'm learning towards it being the staff's fault.

Cole made some nice throws as a high schooler. His college sample size is really small but I can’t see any reason he has regressed. Agree it would be nice to see him throw at this level in a real game sometime.

Well they have let him throw a few times and something bad usually happens so......

I didn't get this either. Especially when Cam was struggling. Give him an easy throw that can open things up and build some confidence.

Cole > Cam. we've seen Cams peak. show us Coles Peak!

But have we seen Jose’s peak?
