My fear is that Armstrong will pass protocol, but Langsdorf will be hesitant to let him run or put him in harm's way. I would rather have Fyfe and his whole playbook than Tommy minus the zone read and QB draws and what not.

I say, if he can play, he should run all the plays. If he can't run all the plays, he shouldn't play. What say you all?

don't we have a qb that we can get some experience for next year, if armstrong is going to fold? Im not sure if bo could run a lemonade stand at this point.

What exactly is Fyfe's "whole playbook?" Do you really think Minnesota is going to be concerned about zone reads or QB draws if Fyfe is in the game?

Put Ten in the box and one safety and There goes RF at QB.

This thread title sounds like something I suggest to my wife...before inevitably getting turned down again.
Unlike concussions, which take time to fix, there are medications to help your problem. Just remember, if it lasts for more than four hours, call your doctor.

ZD's a sophomore. Is he going some place?
He's not the future at QB. He is the backup (if Tommy is unable to go) only in order to save the redshirt. He switched to wide receiver and that is where he will have an opportunity in the future.

If he can go, you go with Tommy. I don't think it's even a question, to be honest. I was nearly in tears when I saw him running back out on the field to be with his team. I thought it was a really special moment, and in that moment I also realized he is the heart and soul of this team. He is far from perfect, but he doesn't quit.

The way I understood the press conference comments, if he's released to play then he is 100% and not limited in any way.

Think about this for a second. A doctor releases an athlete to play a contact sport of football but with limitations? So you can run these five plays but not these five because you might get hit. Either the doctor says full go or no go. Thinking one can avoid anything is foolish thinking and a doctor doesnt think that way.

Your right. If Armstrong plays the only plays we will see is RB runs up the middles and long inaccurate passes. Wait...... that is all we see anyways. No we will just see them with a hurt even more inaccurate Armstrong. I say Fyfe it up.
