FSU's offense had nothing, and honestly we left like 5 sacks out there tonight. That game was very winnable, you're nuts.

Was it a game we could have easily won or a very winnable game? Make up your mind. It was a winnable game if the offense could even get into the redzone

I was not saying it would have been an easy victory. Could have easily won was obviously meant to imply that it was very winnable.
A level interpretation

I don't think it is as much optimism as it is certainty in Smith being the best option given the alternative. This isn't a debate of Smith or a healthy Wade. This is Smith vs. making Wade play on crutches.

They got about every single break in the entire game. The team will be better with Jeff Smith. The sky isn't falling. Still an 7-8 win team.
This defense will be unreal next year and the year after.
We didn't score
And we held an extremely talented team to 7 points and a lucky fumble return. The offense can only go up from here (cue the Crane joke). Smiths legs will provide an instant upgrade. My only worry is that kid looks frail so he may not last.
What plays did we miss that would've helped us easily win? The safety? We wouldn't have won scoring two points

durkcal {l Wrote}:It is going to be a combo of both, at least to begin with. They clearly believe Flutie is the better thrower at this point. J Smith has the legs that they will bring in for that purpose. If the offense looks demonstrably less terrible with one versus the other, they may eventually shift to a 100% starter.
If our offensive coaching does not improve in a hurry, we are in trouble. Don Brown looks good right now because players like Landry and Kam Moore have come so far so fast. Northern Illinois is capable of beating us. (Hope I am wrong about that) Fitch , Frye and Daz seem to only be able to develop and work with multi-year starters that are Seniors.

Flutie can't throw at all. Smith has a better arm. No idea why they are pretending this is a tough call.

EagleNYC {l Wrote}:I agree with the general consensus that Smith has the higher ceiling. But he' sheen on campus for only a few months. How well does he know the playbook? That's not a knock on him, most kids are still figuring out the Newton shuttle at this point. It's easy to see his speed and say "just run the Murphy offense", but this kid has to run the team. I think that the kid has great speed and want to believe that he'll add some life to a listless offense. But with our OL, I'm not sure he'll last the full season.
