Petras wants to play and start, I'm not saying that, but you can't convince me he wouldn't feel at least a little relief if Padilla was named starter.
It would be the best thing for him.

He looks good in the red cap.

I agree, but I also think, at some point, if I were Spencer's parents, I'd file charges for child abuse against Kirk if he keeps trotting him out there to get boo'd with a 1.1 QBR. Other QBs should be getting boo'd too.
KF allowing Spence to trot out there is irresponsible and unfair to Spencer. It’s also unfair to the backup QBs. And all of the other Iowa players. And the people who support Iowa football.

Dochterman says Iowa had two QBs targeted in the transfer portal, but couldn’t seal the deal.
I'd love to know the names..... You put Kedon Slovis on this Iowa team and it's winning the West and at least giving Michigan/Ohio State a game.

They simply couldn't afford to miss on the transfer portal if their QB situation is so bad that Petras is actually the best option.

According to Kakert, one of the QBs was Adrian Martinez.

Maybe that's what they need to do. Get a natural retard and reel them in.

According to Pro Football Focus, Petras was 10-of-18 passing with 83 yards without pressure. When he faced pressure, Petras was just 1-of-7 passing for 26 yards and an interception.
…and he played the whole damn game

How could a transfer portal QB with only one year of eligibility even help? We all know that it takes two to three years to understand the intricacies of the offense.

So he was completing less than their 60% goal even without pressure. Every time I feel like everything has been said to prove how bad this guy is there’s another stat to back it up
I feel this as well. Its alarming how many different stats can prove something two guys, who make so much money for their expertise, apparently can't see.

LOL at someone in the Iowa program leaking that fact in response to pressure this week.

We targeted TWO players!
And by "target" that really likely means they just kicked the tires on it. It probably went like this:

Staff: Hey, we were just wondering if you had any interest in coming here to compete with Petras? He sucks but we really like him. We can't guarantee any starting position especially since we love Petras but what do ya say?

QB: No thanks.

Staff: Ok, if you know of any other QBs looking, let us know!

QB: No thanks.
