[QUOTE="Techster, post: 619613, member: 360"] I don't care if Graham was playing against backups. He played like the moment wasn't too big for him. I was skeptical of his passing, but he made really good throws to Blancato and Brown...throws that only those two had a chance to catch. He also brings a dimension only a handful of players on our team probably have, and that's the ability to make special plays. There's just something about when the ball is in his hands...you get the feeling that something VERY good can happen. IMO, he needs more snaps. A thought I had since Thursday's game was that our coaches probably coached more towards the development going forward than to actually win the game. I'm not saying they went into it to lose, but they also knew our chances were pretty slim, so they didn't want someone like Graham to walk into a bad situation. There was a LOT of positives for Graham to build on. IF Graham would have started and was just thrown to the wolves give our OL and new scheme, they might have set him back mentally. As for Lucas Johnson, you all know I've been beating that drum for years now. However, I'm starting think his window is starting to close. This will be the second staff that has seen him in practice every day and the second staff to not have the confidence to give him a bigger role. This offense set up to play towards his strengths more than the other QBs on our roster, but he wasn't able to take command to make it his job to lose. Hopefully there's more going on behind the scenes than we know and LJ will have a bigger role going forward, if not, then I have to start believing the small amount of playing time he's had is what it is.
