Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 742672, member: 289"] I hear a lot of people talking about Paulus as a "flop" and suggesting Allen is his second coming. I thought Paulus was very good. And if he'd committed himself to being a quarterback, he might might have been great. He was mobile, saw the whole field and could get a catchable ball to people, even if he couldn't throw it 50 yards, (how many passes go 50 yards in the air anyway?) He had that one bad turnover game vs. USF and then they stripped down the offense to avoid turnovers, (that's when we got all the bubble screens), and we got rid of most of the gains with them. Paulus was far better then Allen. If we'd had him for 4 years he would have been better than Nassib. Anybody remember the standing ovation the offensive coaches got at halftime of the Minnesota game, when we finally seemed to have the wide-open offense everyone had been craving for years? [/QUOTE]
