The same time that Max Hall starts sucking, Romo starts sucking. Cowboys struggle, BYU struggles.

It's very weird.

Except that Max Hall hasn't really started sucking. I believe his passer rating was 160 on Saturday and he is still ranked 7th overall on the season.

Anybody with a completion percentage of 70% and a TD/Int ratio of 20 to 4, hasn't had much time to suck.

If Hall keeps trying to force passes like he has the last two weeks against someone like TCU, he will suck.

Hall has been forcing passes into double coverage all year--I remember noticing it in both the UW and UCLA games. He got away with it because his accuracy was unbelievable. His placement has slipped the last few games and it's showing a little.

I don't have any argument to that except that I trust Hall.

Get back to me when he sucks against TCU because I believe he is going to tear TCU's defense to pieces.

I dont remember many passes forced against UNM?

Also maybe they are tied cosmically, but by their fan bases ignorance:

Romo: 24-38 321 yards, 3 tds a qb rating of 116.1
Hall: 22-34 265 yards, 3 tds a pass efficiency of 159.

If that is sucking, then I hope Hall sucks for the rest of the year.

I didn't say Hall sucked against UNM, he just got away with several poor passes into heavy traffic. I'm not into looking at the past, I'm into looking at given what we've done in the recent past, how does that project for our future performance against opponents that don't suck beyond all belief.

Did Max break his finger this week?

I agree with you that against Utah State he threw some very questionable passes.

But against UNM, I dont remember any poor decisions. He did throw one to George down the middle when Andrew was double covered, but Hall intentionally threw it high and far, so if anyone got it, it was George.

Other than that he made good decisions.

I was a little surprised to see BYU struggle at home against New Mexico.
