Going with Patu gives me some hope.  I was surprised to see a pretty decent downfield pass last week in the 2nd half, and then I realized that Patu was in the game.  It wasn't caught.

Speaking of hope, I'd hoped the poster who said he'd witnessed Smith getting injured after the game was trolling.  Geez.

Hope Patu looks good, but didn't I read somewhere that he didn't even play football his senior year of HS because of the pandemic?
Perhaps he will be a good QB for us eventually, but expecting a lot out of him in this game is unrealistic.
Of course, given how the West/Sanders combo looked against Utah, there isn't a lot of downside in giving him a shot.
