‘21 AL QB Riley Leonard (Duke Transfer - Notre Dame Verbal)

[arrowryan]

Yeah he ain’t it

 

[MacIrish75]

Denbrock went to get in line for a beer after we went up 14-0.

 

[NorthDakota]

Awesome run there

 

[OhioIrish]

The more he runs, the more I want to see Angeli. Leonard runs because he can’t pass. We can’t win big this way.

 

[Bluto]

Oh Lordy. Perdue is sooo bad.

 

[GoldenAura]

Would love to see other QBs in the second half.

 

[Tejas]

Bringing the Heisman home one three yard out at a time, and also rushing TD's

 

[NDdomer2]

Expensive rb

 

[JoeyGetherall]

This is who RL has always been. From HS to Duke to ND. It's ridiculous that the coaching staff ever thought otherwise.

Like it or not this is the way the offense has to look with him going forward. Hopefully the staff can continue to create and mix it up each week.

 

[NDBoiler]

Edit

 

[WildMan1]

It’s obviously garbage time but we have some QBs..

I really hope they consider Angeli starting with RL packages.

 

[CANONIZEFATHERSORIN]

the extent to which we don't fucking need riley leonard carrying the ball cannot be overstated

he isn't even fast!

i hate how this means he's gonna continue starting

 

[Giddyup]

He’s pretty fast but against big boy teams this compressed O with little dinks ain’t gonna work.

is he fast though

 

[Giddyup]

Yeah he’s been clocked at a 4.5-4.6 I thought someone said.

[MacIrish75]

Im glad Brandon Wimbush can appreciate a joke at his own expense.

 

[MacIrish75]

Watching IU, Kurtis Rourke actually might’ve been that dude.

 

[Irish du Nord]

Imagine if that money was spent on good players, lol

Kyle Kennard of GT who transferred to South Carolina would've been a great one at DE, 5 sacks and two FF through 3 games

He's a good runner, no doubt. But watching Angeli drive the ball downfield and that's something we haven't seen Leonard do once in three games.

I love how his first drive was just like "fuck this. You want a pass td, here's a fucking pass td." Simple. To the point. The angeli saga begins! I'm a couple drinks in though. It's nice going back to happy buzzed compared to last week's " had some shots and threw my xbox controller like a 19 year old" drunk.

Angeli’s lack of feel in the pocket scares me, because those sacks are drive killers against good defenses.

Riley’s offense was able to put up 350 yards / score 23 on the road at A&M off his legs + staying ahead of the chains. We aren’t going to face a defense that good the remainder of the season. The issue against NIU was that he couldn’t run, making his biggest strength non-existent.

If he’s healthy and can run, I’m not sure Steve is a better option at this point. He made some nice throws, but the lack of feel in the pocket is a turnover / drive killing sack waiting to happen.

 

[Giddyup]

We won’t be able run it down every teams throat. I’d rotate em. Each gets two series and rotate.

Steve showed he could run today. He was playing with some room to make an error. People would actually respect his arm
Plus it would help Love and Price. If you want to win against the teams that are going to be in the playoffs we need Steve back there.

Now, wasn't I preaching Rourke the whole end of last season and into early this year?! He's a passer, pretty mobile (not sure as much post his bad late '22 injury), and he's got poise in the pocket. He wants to try and make it to the NFL... And he's Canadian (and no, I'm not, altho' I'm from Western NY, close by).

 

[Terry Jillery]

I agree with his mom. He sucks.

 

[GoldenToTheGrave]

The funny thing is, and I say this unironically, Leonard throws a pretty good screen pass. He gets them out quick, placement to get the catcher running is good, and he doesn't throw them into the dirt. A lot of (bad) QBs actually struggle with that.

Throwing down field, not so great.

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

Checking in from the game
He kind of looked like a tall Buchner

Imagine paying this dude $1M+. Meanwhile Buchner is on the roster already, not even on scholarship lol
