Guys, if he's not going to change QB's after going 4-13, he's just not going to do it.
Why is Towles Still Playing?

Stoops hasn't seen a chance to get Barker in...or start him...or do anything other than what we've been doing, which is losing.
Perhaps the two dropped TD passes, Baker not running his route, and being hit as he threw the ball, etc, has something to do with it.
Those should be the very reasons he should be playing....
Hell, he doesn't have a coach!!!! Look at his footwork! It's like a freaking tenth grader. Kid has not had any catching at all and it is obvious. Sack the coach who earns $3 mil a year for "pretending" to know how to coach a bona fide SEC talent. Kid has been dicked over by an incompetent staff IMO
I'm also good with seeing Drew, but do you guys really not see the major wr issues?
If none of your quarterbacks even capable of completing 35% of their passes then just don't play a quarterback it's not that difficult to comprehend
There's a good chance of that. It all depends how how Barker throws it to them. His spiral may be better and a little easier to catch when they don't have to worry about jumping to catch it or being over or under thrown
He's also assuming our o-line will magically start blocking better for Barker.
I'm alright with seeing Barker at some point as well, but I don't expect it make much of a difference.
fOOT WORK MY ***....THE PASSES ARE HITTING THE RECEIVERS RIGHT IN THEIR HANDS AND THEY ARE DROPPING THEM.
gOT nothing TO DO WITH FOOT WORK
Anyone complaining about Towles is not watching the same game I am. Baker should not get to play due to lack of effort. Two touchdown passes were dropped. What can the kid do to please you people? I'm also tired of seeing defensive backs get beat and then dance when the ball is overthrown.
He's now 5-17 with an interception. Give him 2 drops and he's 7-17. You can't give him 2 tds because they were on the same drive. He's stinks. You Towles supporters can ride him to 5-7 if you want. I'm not saying Barker is any better but we sure don't know!
Yup it's everyone's fault but towles for his horrible play. How pathetic is it that you come up with excuse after excuse for the kid rather than just saying he sucks.
F it. Screw Towles and screw Stoops if he keeps playing him. I'm so done with this sorry *** team and program. What other team can have the ball on the 1 yard line on two different possessions and turn it over both times!?!
If we lose then I hope and pray that CWS doesn't even draw 10,000 fans for the last 2 games because they don't deserve the support.
It's literally the same exact crap every single f'ing week.

We can change the QB NOW, and it COULD make a difference. We can't replace all our receivers, much less our O-line right now.
I'm not trying to defend Towles' bad play. That last INT was a horrible throw. But he wasn't the only one that was struggling.
I agree that Barker needs a shot and he's getting one now. Looking good with his first few throws.
would seem the team knew all along who should have been in. their play changed when the QB changed.
On a serious note, if you're confident in the ball hitting you on target then you're more likely to make the catch.
Maybe the team doesn't respond to Patrick Towles. Maybe he's not a leader.
Ya know, maybe that has something to do with it?:scream:
Been saying this is a possibility for a while. Probably not on purpose necessarily but they just don't play for the guy. It's obvious to anyone who's willing to see it. Just pay attention to him on the sidelines.
If anyone still believes this, they need to quit forming opinions on football. Their agenda is obviously outweighing their reality. You cannot be that stupid.
Time for people to let it go. It's time to take the lumps with Barker. The team plays better with him. He seems to want it. He seems to understand his job. And so far he looks far more talented than PT.
Let him start learning. He's here for 4 years.
