We have had virtually no defense since Hal Mumme roamed the sidelines.
The object of the game is to win. Improving the passing game by switching QBs does not come without a cost to the run game. Everybody wishes the passing game was better including the coaches. Fans have to trust that the coaches have weighed all the options and have come to the conclusion that TW gives this team the best chance to be successful and when or if they think that has changed then they will make a change.
I'll ask again...when was the last time that the backup proved to be a better option? Lord knows that especially over the last 10 years many UK fans have been calling for the backup QB. They wanted Morgan Newton over Mike Hartline, Max Smith over Newton, Patrick Towles, Reese Phillips or Max Smith over Jalen Witlow, Reese Phillips or Drew Barker over Patrick Towles. Everyone was happy to see Drew Barker get the job, he gets hurt and Stephen Johnson just isn't good enough...tough as nails but not good enough... Never ever in any of those cases was the backup a better option. The coaches know what they are doing, they know the abilities of the kids on the roster.
Yes, changing QBs might allow us to win some game we would otherwise lose...it could also cause us to lose a game we would otherwise win.
