I think those would be words for Grace instead of on but very true. I was starting to have flashbacks to the SIU game. Hopefully he is heathy since I think it would be tough to win without him. Davis looked a little lost out there Saturday but with a week to prepare he would probably look better.

I found it interesting that fans around me were critical of Grace during his play and then when he reentered the game after the injury they were thanking God for his return. Typical fan reaction, I guess, just found it interesting. Post game comments inidcated it was his shoulder and he will be ok.

Nonthrowing shoulder. Easier to recover from. I'm sure it'll be sore after the next game (and probably all this week). but alas, that is part of football.

I do think that they should split the reps a bit more evenly between both Grace and Davis this week in practice (if that is possible), in case he has to step in again.

Re: Any Word On Grace?

I was critical of Grace earlier this year, I still am, the difference is I used to think that Davis gave us the best chance to win in the playoffs, I no longer feel that way. We need him to be healthy to beat Richmond.

Re: Any Word On Grace?

My thoughts exactly jeg...

I wonder how much of an open competition there will be between Grace and Davis in the Spring...

First things first though, lets get a couple more wins...

I think it's very difficult to gauge the performance of either qb, or any player for that matter, based on just a "snap shot" of any particular game. I thought Grace looked pretty sharp at times the last couple of games and then obviously made a couple of unfortunate errors at others. Still, all in all he should be judged of his body of work this season and not just individual games or plays. The same is true for Davis, who looked very, very good in his three starts this season and in his extended fill ins for Grace in others. I think it's safe to assume we wouldn't be where we are without his performace. That being said, he looked unsettled yesterday for whatever reason. Some may be inexperience, some may be no reps during the week. Who knows, but both should be judged on their body of work and not just "snap shots."

Re: Any Word On Grace?

It's quite a bit tougher to go in as a backup quarterback, on short notice, in the middle of a very close playoff game. As opposed to preparing all week as a starter.

Or at least I would imagine that to be the case.

The one thing that stood out to me was a poor throw on a 5 yard out on 3rd and 5, that being said, the linebacker almost took the snap because he was ACROSS THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE BEFORE THE BALL WAS SNAPPED, so maybe Zack thought he already had a first down.

Agreed. That was a bad throw.

Re: Any Word On Grace?

Ok Mister Jeg I really dont think that Grace has that bad of a game. He had one fumble but everyone is going to fumble every once in awhile and the interception was just a great play on the ball and a marvalous catch by the cornerback. He was still 18 of 26 for 255 yards and 1int. He has gotten alot better in his passing area and for a quaterback to run and take some of the shots that he takes and make the plays like he does. I will take a fumble everyonce in awhile
