Any chance Gus utilizes QBs Jacurri Brown and/or Dylan Rizk against FL or during the season ahead?

Jacurri seems to have a quicker pace to everything he does compared to KJ, but who knows about decision making and all that. I can't even be upset about not developing younger players these days because they can just pick up and transfer after receiving that development at UCF so the guarantee of return on investment breaking in young players is way less than it used to be. The staff are really the only ones in position to gauge players that are likely to be here after this season and balance that against guys best suited to help us win now.
 
KJ hurt ribs 2 games ago but was saved by the bye week. If he takes a shot to ribs he may sit. But with Gus calling plays he doesn’t know strengths of the individuals. He wants to call plays no matter who is at QB.

Plumlee started against Kansas and he didn't even look remotely healthy to be playing. The starter basically has to refuse to go on the field.
 
Using another QB without a change in calling of plays isn't going to fix the problem. It was obvious very early in the game that Gus' constant movement in the backfield wasn't slowing down the opposing defense. He needed to run plays that went right at them including quick pass like slants plays but Gus doesn't do that and this is why Townsend left. Gus likes to use the slot receiver as a decoy running behind the line and doesn't use him much in quick slant passing game.
 
I still have no idea why we stopped doing RPO's when we marched down the field and scored a touchdown. Jefferson seemed comfortable running it. The commentators mentioned the DBs were running man all game. There aren't routes to exploit man?
Even the Brock guy said Gus has been running the same plays since Ark high school, so it's not exactly a mystery.
