Yeah, we don't need a Brett Favre gun slinger who will cost us the game(s). We need a more capable QB than we have in Pyne who will protect the ball as well, and whose upside outweighs his downside. . . Card anyone?
Agreed. The two pick sixes that Armstrong threw to start the game against Pitt were egregiously bad decisions.Yeah, we don't need a Brett Favre gun slinger who will cost us the game(s).

I wouldn't complain about taking him. He plays this Saturday, right? So even if he planned to enter the portal we wouldn't be hearing anything yet.
Hard to throw interceptions when you won't pull the trigger unless a receiver has no one within 10 yards of them
He also has 14 more touchdowns in basically an identical number of attempts.
I hated playing ND and avoided it like tha plague (met them in a couple of natties).
14 more TD's and 15 less INT's with the same number of attempts and yardage. . . I don't see the upside of Armstrong unless he was the only option. then hope he can learn how to "manage the game" a little better. Fortunately, based upon IrishLax's intel, it doesn't sound like we will lack for options.
Correct... yet, but he would disprove your theory there. Although I disagree with your premise in the first place. Not having great game film isn't the reason all qbs enter the portal. Their will be really good to borderline great qbs that enter the portal this year. Card doesn't fit that description. Harris does and I think he'll be at another school next year, but he's at the top of a long list that I would stack ahead of Card as options.
Yeah, he would be pretty great. It would make sense he looks to transfer if Chadwell really looks like he is going to end up somewhere else.
Arm strength isn't great, but dudes a baller.
Plus, you'd have a real life Leprechaun at QB.
But you can’t ignore it either
I don’t think anyone really knows. Some have speculated the OC leaving and lack of talent around him caused his numbers to nosedive, while others wonder if his 21 season was an anomaly.
Would you feel better if his last two seasons were switched? Ball out this past year and had a horrible the year before?
I can see the IG post now. "Actually the Dropkick Murphys are from Quincy and BC is in Chestnut Hill and both of them steal glory by playing For Boston."
Yes, that's called progress. What we're potentially dealing with is regression.
So when he loses his entire offensive line and OC and plays poorly (which we saw the first few games of the year) it means nothing and means we should definitely look elsewhere?
