It's almost impossible to quantify how terrible Petras is. Just an abysmal player. Probably the worst QB Ferentz has had, and that's really saying something.

He definitely is having issues but our o line sucks. The snaps are high. He has to spend extra seconds dealing with that. Probably second half Padilla comes out

Anybody think that maybe Brain would like to switch QBs, but Kurt says no?

The Ferentz’s have constructed a diabolically clever solution to their age-old problem of running an ultra conservative and predictable offense: if you have no offense no one can predict what your next move is. Genius!

The Brian and Petras Show allows Phil Parker to be given a pass for a goddamn 99 yard, 11 minute drive that cost the game.
It's bullshit. A defense that's touted as one of the best in the nation doesn't give up a fucking 99 yard 11 minute drive in cruch time. Oh, you're tired? FUCK YOU. If you're tired, call a timeout or call for a sub.

My initial read on the season was 11-1 regular season, then a second loss to Ohio taking us to 11-2, then probably a Rose Bowl victory taking us to 12-2. Now, I am thinking 2-10, but that is only if we can beat Nevada and the Jack Rabbits. I'm not ruling out 1-11 after this Jones news. I do think Northwestern will be truly atrocious, though, so that should be a W. Rutgers should be bad as well, so I pin the absolute ceiling at 4-8. We have a stretch of Michigan, Illinois and Ohio. I think we go 0-3 in that stretch and I think we lose the final four. While we get some mercy with Northwestern falling off so much talent wise, Fleck, Frost and Bielema are going to be gunning for Iowa as their "defining wins" and I think they all get them this year because the team will quit after getting shitbombed by Michigan. If you need my full on, rock solid prediction for gambling purposes, it is 4-8 with narrow wins over the shitbag OOC teams and Rutgers and Northwestern. Losses to ISU and everyone else on the conference calendar other than the two cellar dwellers. The only way this team is better than 4-8 is if Labas is the starter and is a fourth round or better NFL talent with mobility. Without Linderbaum we're gonna go back to that turnstyle blocking strategy and not even Tom Brady in his prime could succeed with that level of line play. Game 1 prediction: Iowa 17, Jack Rabbits 16. I am feeling food about my 4-8 ceiling on this team. I think we beat 2 B1G teams plus maybe Nevada. With the caveat that I was driving through Tennessee on Saturday and only heard the second half and didn't see a single snap, I think Petras may be Jake Christensen level of bad. This Iowa State game will dictate the entire season. If through some miracle Petras doesn't get the start and the o-line has a quantum leap maybe we get to 9-3 if we get past Iowa State, but I just don't see it. I think we lose this one 19-3 (ISU TD on a pick 6 and 4 FGs). Then, we go on to win at most 3 more games. Okay, on to Nevada. I think we win this one and beat Rutgers (which ain't a gimme) but then we go on a long skid. Only win after Rutgers I see is Nebraska. Maybe Northwestern. We could get to 5 wins but I don't want to get too optimistic and jinx us. I think this team will be a little better when the weather gets bad.

Forget about this season, where does this rank historically? This level of production is so low that I can only imagine it being matched by some program like Incarnate Word who signed up to be a rent a victim for Texas and Oklahoma in consecutive weeks the first year it moved up to FBS, but even then they would probably put up yards against the 2nd/3rd string late in the 4th quarter.
