    Exactly. We can only hope Russ Callaway sees it, and can do it.

    Callaway can call it but it takes wuerffle or trask to execute those type of plays. AR couldnt do it if jesus was calling the plays.

    Okay. Let’s just not try and have WRs choose schools with QBs.

    You either have an elite qb or you dont. There are no great receivers with mid qbs.

    That’s why I figured he’d have a Mid QB. I guess he still kind of was in the pro aspect of things so I guess both can be true

    Culpepper could get him the ball but he wasnt so good at the raiders. I thought he was on the backside of his career when he hooked up wtth brady and went cheat code.

    There are plenty of decent QBs completing passes to WRs. It's a ridiculous idea that to have an above average passing game a team needs has to have an elite QB.

    Yes, Ohio State quarterback Will Howard was drafted in the 2025 NFL Draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was selected in the sixth round with the 185th overall pick.

    In the 2024 college football season, Shedeur Sanders, the Colorado Buffaloes quarterback, had a remarkable performance, setting numerous records. He completed 353 of 477 passes for 4,134 yards, 37 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. This resulted in a completion percentage of 74.0% and a 117.0 NFL QB rating. Sanders also set records for single-season passing yards, completions, attempts, touchdowns, completion percentage, and quarterback rating at Colorado

    In the 2024 season, the Florida Gators' passing stats were led by DJ Lagway, who threw for 1915 yards. Graham Mertz followed with 791 passing yards, and Aidan Warner contributed 228 yards. The team's total passing yardage was 2934.
    Here's a more detailed breakdown:
    • DJ Lagway: 159.6 yards per game.
    • Graham Mertz: 158.2 yards per game.
    • Aidan Warner: 38.0 yards per game.
    • Team Total: 342 attempts, 208 completions, 14 interceptions.
    If the offense works and uses WR talents, the pass game could be much better. So back to my original point, lets see if our "new" OC can bring it all together.

    Unfortunately, we would need to land every one to have a top rated class since we have one commitment so far. Recruits don’t seem to think Billy will be here after this year.

    If your qb is selected by the nfl, hes good enough to get the ball to college receivers. Most teams would love to have Will Howard. Hes much better than what weve mostly had since Tebow
