Who will be QB?

[Bull Martin]

It's White.  I'll put money on it.

[Bull Martin]

I vote white as well, however I bet we see both in action Aug 30th. 

 

I would also bet we'll see a far bit of Bench against Western as well.

[NewEnglandBull]

White will be the starter.

[The Great 8]

White, it's all but a formality.

[GaUSFBull]

Can't disagree with the majority on this one, I believe it will be White as well. 

[SANJAY]

Don't know. I do know who the most popular quarterback will be once the starter is named.

White... It's been White since spring.  Bench had a good spring GAME... not total spring.  He was a pic six king for a minute there during spring ball.  Most watched the spring game and thought that is how it went the entire time and no... White is clearly a much better QB than Bench is.  Everything flows with that guy.  He has a better arm and accuracy.

 

People are talking like White had a really bad spring game... I think he was 19-25 175 yards or so.  I can't remember.  Bench had a great game but one game doesn't make up for the 70% of the time he's being outplayed.  Bench is a solid backup.  I actually can't believe it's a debate.  He likely hasn't named one because he wants them both to keep elevating their play.  Competition.... but he's about to end it.  He'll name White I think today sometime.  Or maybe the scrimmage tomorrow.   He's looked really good during the closed scrimmage yesterday.... really good.  I thought he would do it yesterday to be honest.

Evan Wilson.

 

 

Underdog potential.

FWIW -

"Steven Bench was the driving force, throwing three touchdowns while completing 19 of 24 passes for 317 yards.

...

White completed 20 of 34 passes for 174 yards"

So, we're talking 58% vs 79% completion percentage. White's passes also had dramatically lower YPC.

 

That said, it was just one game and White has (apparently) been far ahead most of the Spring. He'll start.
