Here is the issue regarding Quinn and Arch -
At this point in the season we can't just put Arch in and say go get em. He's had hardly any real live game experience outside of 2 games earlier in the season. Sark and Quinn aren't putting away teams enough to give Arch any quality snaps. We have to roll with Quinn no matter what or we're fucked and we aren't doing shit in the playoffs.
I would absolutely love to see what Arch could do, but realistically he probably doesn't do much. It's maddening watching Quinn play, but you have to go with experience and this defense to keep us in the NC hunt. I really think next season Arch will dominate, but we aren't gonna see that against Kentucky or aggy. It sucks going in circles with Quinn, but he at least finds ways to move the ball in some miraculous ways.
It won't be Quinn who wins us a NC (assuming we make it there), it will be this defense. They're literally the only thing keeping this team at 9-1, and shutting down Georgia for the most part. It's too late in the season for us to plug in Arch. This was the same shit Mack would do. He wouldn't put teams away so we could get our heir any game time experience. Quinn is who he is. He isn't changing, and he isn't going to be lighting teams up aside from maybe 1 or 2 games.
We'll see who he really can be in the playoffs. Sark still has him on training wheels, which is why we aren't seeing different routes. We're also down to two small RB's that Sark can't understand they aren't big enough to run through tackles. I don't know what the deal is with not playing Gibson more, but something has to give. We're 10 games into the season, he just had a 100 yard game, and then he disappears against Arky. I don't know what the fuck is going on in Sark's head, but he needs to pull it out of his ass and get more players involved. We're literally hanging on to and hoping Bond, Golden, or Moore to get us TD's. Same with Blue and Wisner. It's like Sark didn't learn from the Georgia game that both Blue and Wisner can be shut down easily. Also Quinn throwing to the flat that either hits the ground, Blue drops it, or Blue catches it and get tackled and loses yards.
So basically, we have to hope new shit comes to light in the next 2 games and Quinn either goes ape shit for 5 TD's like against UF, or out defense gods ape shit like they did against Arky. There seems to be no middle ground other than self-sacking or dump offs.
