Been banging that drum all season. AC just isnt a quality QB cant read the defense plays too emotional and on instinct instead of skill and technique. When the margin for error is so thin a team cannot afford to have a QB who is going to make 3-5 very bad plays every game

He should be able to bail and throw it away by now. Also stop locking in on his target to tip off the secondary.

Ad I said at the end of last season theres a short line for 5"10 qbs with avg arm strength who basically have a 50/50 TD to TO ratio.

It may be the scheming and poor play calling exacerbating the bad, sure. But AC is garbage.
You canāt have a QB who either canāt or refuses to read the field, at least in the sense that heās not locked onto one guy every single play. Iāve tried to have patience but Iām done with it. Weāre getting all the bad and NONE of the good. Muskett the rest of the season please.
TE waited one quarter too long to pull the plug today. When it was 21-0 and the 2nd or 3rd pick happened it was time. Likely the game outcome doesnāt change but AC took us out of the game completely.

I was at one time a big AC fan mainly because of his attitude and fearless play but he has really pushed my buttons. He absolutely donāt see the field at all. He locks in on a receiver and heās going to throw that ball to him . I donāt believe he even sees the defender draped all over him. Thatās not to mention the other things he does. He runs out of bounds rather that throwing it away costing us yardage. Today did it. Iām riding the Muskett train now . Heās not as exciting but he donāt drive me crazy. My rant is over. Its college basketball season. Football is done except for the playoffs.

At the game today ā¦ biggest disappointment was AC followed closely by Tyree. AC issues are obvious. Tyree got all sorts of chances but he didnāt seem to have his head or heart in it. Defense tried, hung tough. We had a mismatch with Malachi and didnāt exploit it really. Sit AC, play Muskett from here.

Inpossible for me having watch the first half yesterday to think the Hoos could ever win in football
Sure it was ND. But NIU beat ND

That NIU loss is exactly why ND has been going to the pay window ever since. May as well happened 4yrs ago with how theyāve bounced back especially defensively.
That was by far (statistically and in Dragonās humble opinion) the best defense the Hoos faced all year.
They also got 0 help from their QB

Not to bury AC but here are his stats this season
2,017 yrds on 62.1% completions 12 TDs 11Ints 43 QBR
73 carries for 235yrds 0 tds 3.1 ypc
The qbr is good for 106th in the nation.
Frankly looking at that itās a minor miracle they got to 5 wins so far. Thats consistently dreadful play

And that doesnāt include plays where he runs out of bounds behind the LOS which goes down as a sack instead.

The big disappointment with AC for me is that he just doesnāt seem to have the same wiggle/explosiveness/whatever that he had last year. There have been numerous times heās gotten into space andā¦he just gets tripped up from behind or tackled 1 on 1. That, combined with a decrease in long completions, make the INTs harder to swallow.
