Your constant ragging on Tavita Pritchard is getting a little wearing, NYC. Here's what I remember about him: He was thrown in as cannon fodder against a juggernaut the team Under Stanford Control team that was a 42-point favorite. He was playing behind an offensive line so inept and outmanned that the previous quarterback had been beaten into convulsions. He spent most of his time scurrying around the backfield to avoid the jailbreak pass rush. (Even so, he was sacked four times.) But when the chips were down, he was deadly, driving the team for 10 points in the last six minutes. In the chaos of the final drive, he couldn't even get the plays signalled from the bench and called his own. Result: A 24-23 victory. I've been watching Stanford more that twice as long as you, and nothing that I ever saw from any quarterback, not Elway or Stenstrom or Luck, came within a mile of matching that performance. Give it a rest.

That was an amazing game no question.  You point to the inept offensive line which I won't argue with.  However, my point remains that over the course of his career, there was not high quality QB play.  And you can't merely point to an inept offensive line.  In the Sun Bowl, we had an amazing offensive line and Gerhart as RB.  He had an abysmal game.  I have nothing against Pritchard personally and by all accounts he seems like a stand-up guy, as does Nunes.  I would like to think we are allowed to openly share our views of on-field performance without being told to, essentially, shut up
