who did all of those guys play??? Seems kind of important if some are playing against weak mid america teams and others are playing against BCS teams.

sometimes # lie...did Ryan look good against Minnesota...did the team win 2 of 4...basically he has a strong arm...sometimes too strong--he cannot run and he makes some poor decisions...not really going to say how good he is...a good qb leads his team to victories...compare to race horse that always finishes second...good horse, but cannot get it done.

I'd love to see what a more versatile QB can do in this offense.
A good qb isn't running for his life with o-line talent like lou alexander in front of him. We also have no speed recievers.

it's not hurt that much by the ints. he's thrown so much that 2 less ints doesn't affect the formula that much. it also doesn't count fumbles.
his play has been as good as we're going to get and it's pretty average.
let's hope it stays that way.
his passer rating in september is worse than it was in september of 2011 and 2010
we can't afford a big drop off in the big east like we got the last couple years.

Yeah, he's a nice enough QB, but far from a game changer. Hopefully he can put together a solid string of games in the Big East this year.

and yet maroons here keep saying hes going to play on sundays.:crazy:
I haven't seen too many great catches by the receivers to help Nassib's numbers in this stat and I've seen a lot of drops and deflections that led to interceptions. Nassib can have a fine career in the NFL if he has a decent oline and learns to get a better touch. What hurts him is he can not improve his 6' 2" height. One other thing he doesn't do is force the ball and most guys with his type of arm never learn that. Granted, he plays it too safe sometimes but you know what, NFL teams like that a hell of a lot more than the alternative.

any comparable examples of that type of qb come to mind? just curious
Cutler came to mind when I wrote that. Strong armed but forces the ball but taller I believe. Ryan maybe. Kolb. It's going to depend on who drafts him and what type of offense they run. Maybe a Flacco type. It's such a team game millhouse and if he's in the right situation he could do ok but if he has a line that is a sieve, he is going to struggle but let's face it, most qb's do. Hell., Grossman has lasted longer in the NFL than he should just by having guys that were wide open at Florida or caught the ball and ran 50+ yards with it. It's going to depend on the coach and if he gets drafted by a defensive minded guy, he may flourish. Again, he has his faults but there is potential and we haven't had that at the qb position since McNabb...and no, I'm not saying he's as good for the hyperbole's out there.

I know we love to talk about drops w/ Nassib, but honestly they seem exaggerated a bit. After the USC game people were complaining about the drops, but seriously, a lot of those were him throwing too high or a bit behind a cutting WR. Yeah, they're catches we expect a WR to make most of the time, but I'm not sure why we don't expect Nassib to actually hit the open WR if he's really this good. He accuracy plummets as you go downfield.
Admittedly, you see him make all those throws at times and it gets you excited for what he's capable of, but he misses on so many that at this point it's just a matter of he is who he is - a decent college QB. Which is great, we haven't had one of those in a while.
Maybe I'm seeing things that are not there but there was one play when Nassib threw long to West and again watching on tv may have skewed what I saw but it looked like it could have been catch-able but West just continued running forward instead of breaking to the ball and running into the DB. I thought at the very least he could have broke to the ball and it would have been pass interference. It's just little things like this that teams like SU's have to do to win games. Again, maybe I just had a poor angle.
