[Husker] Re: now come the QB discussion.

Wait a minute, Roger!

If you can't blame a single player, you can't entirely blame the  
offensive line either. Fact is, you can swap the QB, but you cant swap  
out the entire line. To be honest, you really can't swap many of them  
because you're going to rotate about eight or nine of them throughout  
each game.

Even when the Oline gave Lee some time, he did his best happy feet  
routine and started scrambling instead of stepping into the pocket.

Lee has had his time behind center. I have no problem with them trying  
Green on for size because someone has to generate offense, make plays,  
etc etc.  As Pelini said - they're looking for a little more  
leadership from the QB position. If Lee gets that straightened out,  
then fine. If he doesn't, it's Green turn to give it a shot.
