Good Maize & Brew article on the QB battle
Some good insights on Speight and Peters. Goes into the reads / progressions, what the plays are designed to do, etc. More detailed than the usual fluff.
I wish I had the stones that you do sir.

I've no problem with this post or the subject matter. But oh boy, has this board had its fill of this topic!
Glad you posted it. Blizzard of snowflake posts aside, it's an important topic and a respected site.
how to talk to your kids about the Speight vs Peters 2017 offseason QB controversy?
That meeting doesn't start until 7 PM EST. Come back to the MGoBoard then.
I'll save you a seat.
running bit here, taking the place of jerseys in Ohio and can't whatever till we beat osu. I'm counting on you Henne. Remember, excellence is good.
But we would like your opinion on the QB situation.
Do tell...
But not here. Start your own thread/diary.
Lets repost every spring game thread to the board so Monkey House doesnt miss any content/analysis
in your attendance estimate.
There is no right side. There are just snowflakes.
Only the yellow ones.
I don't think that's how that works.
Only the maize ones
A small Scout will need at least 2 quarts of water a day, a larger Scout will need 3 quarts and an adult as much as 4. If possible, these liquids should be warm to conserve body heat. That's the main argument against eating snow to consume water. Instead, let it melt down in a canteen or water bottle containing warmer water, or melt it in a pan that already contains warm water.

They laughed at me for saving all my Boy's Life magazines, but now who's laughing? Huh? WHO'S LAUGHING NOW?
For what it is worth, Sam Webb has said on WTKA that Alex Malzone was held out of the Spring game with a severe ankle sprain.
This is worth a read, if only for one observation. Wilton leaves is right foot planted when he throws and does not follow through with his hips, like if a pitcher's toe never left the rubber after releasing the ball. That seems like an easy fix, relatively speaking, within the context of mechanical issues. Will be interesting to see if his motion continues to develop.
I thought the same thing, but I'm skeptical of any further progress if Wilton hasn't fixed it yet even after nearly two and a half years under Harbaugh. It's not like Harbaugh doesn't know proper passing mechanics... Nevertheless, I still want Wilton to start.

But the catch here is that Harbaugh doesn't generally mess with a persons mechanics. He deals with the mind. If the hitch in Speight's giddyup has been there for two-three years, I suspect it isn't bad enough for Jim MF'ing Harbaugh to worry about it.
than a snowflake thread or a whining post.
The author presented observations about Speight and Peters, backed up by video examples. Even if one doesn't agree with every observation or conclusion, at least the author presents some justification. Plus, I seldom wander over to places like maizenbrew or TTB, so I appreciated being made aware of the article. Thanks OP.
"snowflakes"
Doesn't Maize n Brew know the MGoRules that no one is allowed to talk about Wilton Speight unless you are singing his praises on high? Is there any way that MGoUsers can downvote Maize n Brew? If there is not a way, one must be invented.
Lord forbid that anyone actually be skeptical or openly critical of Speight, regardless of his play in the spring game. He is clearly the next MGoComing of Tom Brady.
Also note that the spring game is just a glorified practice, unless you are crowning a kicker or Rashan Gary as the next great thing, then it is a live look at real competition.
LOL downvotes!
Is a battle the same as a meritocracy? DISCUSS
Great analysis...always felt there was something different with Speight's mechanics now I see better. Damn near looks like he's throwing darts.
They both have a chance to start.
GO BLUE!!
The only QB controversy is the one created by MGoBlog.
