Spencer Rattler named starting QB ; Jay Glazer reports Rattler expected to start next 3-4 games (month) until Carr’s return

I’m not going to say that starting Haener would have been waving the white flag but he would be the conservative choice. He’s steady but he hasn’t shown the ability to inspire the offense and make it better. We probably lose in a slog of a game. Not because he’s god awful but because he doesn’t have the quality to elevate those around him. At least not yet. As someone said he’s probably Colt McCoy. That’s not the worst thing in the world, but….

Rattler has the better pedigree. He can elevate those around him. He has the blue chip talent. He can extend plays and improvise. He’s just more dynamic. However. he is a rookie and is raw in some respects. I think this decision does show the team isn’t giving up and expects to compete.

Will we win? I dunno but I think the game will be more exciting and interesting with Rattler.
