Indubitably
September 8th, 2018 at 7:31 PM ^
No we can not agree on that
September 8th, 2018 at 7:31 PM ^
I thought Harbaugh said Peters was the backup but got hurt the Thursday before Notre Dame.
September 8th, 2018 at 7:34 PM ^
And you believe that? Maybe he got hurt, but I doubt he was ever going to be ahead of Dcaff this year.
September 8th, 2018 at 7:39 PM ^
Yes, I do. This is Harbaugh, not Meyer. Besides, I don’t see why he would lie about who the backup is.
September 8th, 2018 at 7:43 PM ^
Really? Ok, that’s fair, but I think Harbaugh was prolly protecting BP, so when he transfers it looks like he lost his job cause of DCaffs performance against ND and not because Dcaff was just better in camp. That’s what a stand up coach who cares about all his players would do.
September 8th, 2018 at 8:18 PM ^
That's quite the conspiracy theory (and not entirely impossible) but that's far from the most likely scenario. I don't see why we would assume that JH is lying about that, especially since Peters is older and more experienced that McCaffrey, and played well most of the season last year. Doesn't that seem like the most likely situation here?
September 8th, 2018 at 8:25 PM ^
Not sure, I just know that Dcaff looks like the backup to me. Regardless of how, I don’t see it changing.
September 8th, 2018 at 8:31 PM ^
He looks like the back up to me too because he comes in when the backup quaterback comes in. When Peters is healthy he will look like the backup because he will come in when the backup quarterback comes in.
September 8th, 2018 at 8:36 PM ^
Wanna bet our accounts on it? Just for funsies.
I have so many burners to offer.
September 8th, 2018 at 8:42 PM ^
Which one?
September 8th, 2018 at 8:46 PM ^
This one and my Mk account.
September 8th, 2018 at 8:48 PM ^
Um, maybe you should stop doing that. This multiple account accusation from some is getting old. You just fed into it.
I'll ask, politely, that you stop. Because I've had enough.
September 8th, 2018 at 8:50 PM ^
All you can do is play along. The people who say that our crazy. Mods can easily check IPs and see we are not the same and put it to rest. They choose not to cause it drives clicks. I’m game.
September 8th, 2018 at 8:59 PM ^
I don't car about all of that. I ask that you stop.
September 9th, 2018 at 1:35 AM ^
Ah, yes. Another conversation between MGoBlog’s very own Sybil.
September 9th, 2018 at 6:07 AM ^
You are wrong. Go after him. Leave me out of your world.
September 9th, 2018 at 7:53 AM ^
You two: get a room!
September 8th, 2018 at 8:44 PM ^
Harbaugh holds his cards close to the vest, but if there’s big news like that he doesn’t conceal it after the fact. It wasn’t known that Speight was the backup in 2015 until Rudock got hurt in the Minnesota game, but once it happened Speight’s RS status was publicly revealed.
September 9th, 2018 at 12:39 PM ^
It should be clear by now that Harbaugh says a lot of things that are absolutely untrue in order to motivate the players.
September 8th, 2018 at 7:36 PM ^
I believe that he was sick but irregardless he missed almost an entire week of practice which is why DMac played
September 8th, 2018 at 7:53 PM ^
My coworker's kid is dating a Michigan trainer. The trainer said Peters is injured and they knew he wasn't playing all week. There are others who are injured. My co-worker is a text book example of little brother. Fortunately the trainer hasn't given my co-worker any concrete info. He would use it against us if he could.
September 8th, 2018 at 7:58 PM ^
irregardless is not a word
September 8th, 2018 at 8:12 PM ^
Merriam Webster disagrees with you
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/irregardless
September 8th, 2018 at 8:16 PM ^
Sounds like a valley girl. omg did you see what Merriam Webster is wearing? Groty to the max!
September 8th, 2018 at 8:15 PM ^
Actually, it is a word. Just considered nonstandard. From Merriam Webster:
September 8th, 2018 at 9:05 PM ^
If it's not in the Oxford English dictionary it's not a word.
Idgaf what MW says.
September 8th, 2018 at 9:21 PM ^
Much like flammable & inflammable mean the same thing, regardless & irregardless mean the same thing. It's redundant, but it's a word now, & it's redundant.
September 8th, 2018 at 11:29 PM ^
Wait, flammable and inflammable mean the same thing?
damn public school education, welp, back to the mill.
September 9th, 2018 at 3:44 PM ^
Regardless
September 8th, 2018 at 7:56 PM ^
What does he know?!
September 10th, 2018 at 8:27 AM ^
Yes, but he played against Western at the end and still came in as the 3rd QB. If he's injured they wouldn't be putting him in at all in a blowout.
September 8th, 2018 at 7:32 PM ^
Yes, yes we can.
September 8th, 2018 at 7:37 PM ^
why? explain your comment. you have just decided a young mans future, because, why? what is your level of experience to make that statement?
September 8th, 2018 at 7:47 PM ^
I'll do him a favor...... in case you haven't watched any of the games yet this year..... each time mcaffrey has come in, he's looked good. Even against Notre dame, you could clearly see he's going to be the man. Today, yes, against wmu, after the td, you can see it in his eyes. He's going to be great. He's played great football in his appearances.
September 8th, 2018 at 7:53 PM ^
I couldn't see his eyes with that helmet in the way
September 8th, 2018 at 9:16 PM ^
That's weird, cuz the replay clearly shows them.
September 8th, 2018 at 11:08 PM ^
Thank's for clearing that up; I was nervous for a second there that you would have some quantifiable information to back up the OP's claim.
September 9th, 2018 at 1:06 AM ^
Uh he had 3.7 yards per attempt against ND (22 yds). He looked ok.
September 9th, 2018 at 8:45 AM ^
He needs to get used to the pocket, though. His awareness is a work in progress. I agree he projects into a stud. He also needs 20 more pounds to not look like a twig, still.
September 8th, 2018 at 8:21 PM ^
In the very short time we've seen Dylan McCaffrey anyone can see he is better than Brandon Peters.
September 8th, 2018 at 8:32 PM ^
He was on hot fire! Good cadence and superior modulation.
September 8th, 2018 at 8:42 PM ^
It's just kinda odd that you have nothing else to do in life.
Seriously.
September 8th, 2018 at 9:07 PM ^
says the loser with 6 accounts who is having a conversation with himself.
neckbeard dweeb.
September 9th, 2018 at 6:09 AM ^
You are wrong.
September 9th, 2018 at 8:26 AM ^
yeah fugitive. way wrong. he shaved the beard yesterday.
(i kid. couldn't resist. the beard is a great look)
September 8th, 2018 at 9:20 PM ^
Not true at all. Peter's played quite well starting as a freshman....
September 9th, 2018 at 6:12 AM ^
There were times he did look good. Yes.
But it's clear McCaffrey is better.
As far as talk of injury, if injury to Peters has held him out of games, and McCaffrey has been put in instead, why did Peters play at the end of the game yesterday?
September 9th, 2018 at 10:19 AM ^
It seems unreasonable to me to make such a declaration on such a small sample from DCaff and nothing from BP.
