Other than Willis.... I like that Thaddeus guy...

Hmm... I wonder why....

He's overrated.

To think some HP natives wanted Stafford over Willis! :lol:

Willis is the #1 freshman in terms of TD pct. and the #2 overall in that category.

How does Willis' rushing yards stack up against McCoy's?

Willis has 208, Colt has 106. That's just pretty much just a stat to make us all feel proud of Justin.

Colt is feeling really comfortable now as a QB ever since the OSU game. He is becoming a great pocket passer with decent running ability.

that kid (Colt) has looked good, it will have to play out, but I just don't see him as a "stud" QB.

Just think of what Chris Phillips could have been if had not run afoul of the tight ends coach. Don'tcha think, Stallion? :wink:

How is that calculated? Of Willis' completions, 15.5% of them are touchdowns. For Colt, 15.9%. Just wondering how that stat is calculated.

7-1 as a starter vs 4-3 as a starter is the only stat that should matter. Willis should be 5-3 as as starter.

Actually Willis did not start the Marshall game. So that is 3-3. :cry:

I believe it's touchdowns per attempt.
