TU just has a chance to be a little more dynamic and multiple with Braxton. Don't get me wrong,
Cardell has a bright future as a QB but I think there are things he needs to learn that will make
him and the offense more dynamic and less predictable.
One major reason for the "more dynamic and multiple" with Braxton is simply the fact that
Wilson calls the game differently (more open) when Braxton is in the game....The obligatory
run over left tackle with Cardell in the game on first down for almost no gain is known to
every one in the stadium....
Wilson obviously has his reasons for this, but I think he sometimes limits Cardell more than
he protects him....When the yardage to gain on third down is consistently too much for any
thing except a pass, you are definitely making it more difficult on your QB....
Braxton should be the starter this week....He should give a not too athletic rice defense more
than they can handle...We will need to score a lot to win....Our type of defense will turn out
to be something the Rice QB will relish....He is very experienced and is very accurate throwing
to a set of good receivers....I wish we could get more pressure...He is not too much of a run
threat.....
