It never took three years to learn the playbook. What does take time and experience is learning the "reads". We are talking about who will play backup QB, as Mills is the starter baring injury. Sanders probably had only a few reads at AF, and probably some of those wouldn't apply to Stanford's system. However Sanders has taken real snaps in real games and played when all the pressure was on him. He has done moderately well in those games. West has one start and that didn't go well. So, I think Sanders has the edge IF he can execute the offense. He may not have the experience to get them out of a bad play at the LOS, but neither does West have that experience. However, if there are lots of throws that Sanders just cant make and West can, West gets the nod, IMHO.
