Emory ain’t the answer but Mario is dumb as **** for even putting him in that situation, ran the ball for most of the half and then tell Williams to be a hero with 50 seconds left is ******* crazy
They didn’t even try to get him in a rhythm. Retarded.
 
I gotta tell you guys, Mendoza is a 10x better QB then Emory. He can actually make some throws compared to a guy who can't make any throws.
This is just emotional rhetoric. Mario played conservative and didn't get Emory acclimated throwing the ball. Didn't get his backup QB any reps all season. Threw him in with a bunch of WRs that didn't get any game experience, then expect him to lead the game winning drive. Now, you want to make a comparison.

******* fitting end.
Lost the game on that second to last possession. Very relaxed and stupid to pass on first down.
Not sure that just a rebuild secondary will be enough to fix this defense.

If you can’t tell that he’s not it, you’re blind

Mendoza is 100 times the QB Emory is. Not sure why we didn't bother. **** I would take any of the big names that entered. At least the staff now saw it live in a real game that this kid just isn't any good.
 
Problem is whose left Ewers..Should have gotten Mensah…but Manny didn’t wait like Mario and pulled the trigger.
Exactly why I said on the boards the Mario approach is not sustainable.

Need to be able to move quickly for QBs even if they aren’t the top QB.

Should’ve pivoted to Mendoza right away after Mateer.

Mario’s all in approach on 1 guy is ******* stupid.

Offer Hoover everything. Like $8 million.
 
Even more scary is our lack of WRs. Trader and who else?
I just find it hard to believe that people thought Emory looked "great" in practice. How? I guess going against the Canes defense?

Mario needs TWO QBs in the portal.
You can't have Emory as a backup.I can only hope Luke Nickel comes in and wins the job...

I won’t blame Emory (although his lack of everything was on full display), but I don’t understand, we ran down their throats. Got a TD. Got to the 2 yd line running down their throats again, and pass? Killed the momentum, and down hill from there. I’ll give the D credit, they made some stops and the O did nothing. But my goodness, the whole D needs to be revamped, starting with the coaches, and then 90% of the players.
