Keeping it 100% real here I agree with giving the kid time. As a 4th round rookie he has a very rare opportunity to showcase why he’s worthy of that time. In that span he’s had flashes of being a competent starting QB in the league and ton of rookie hiccups. From what I’ve seen the kid lacks mobility and holds on to the ball too long. He’s made some incredible throws and doesn’t stare down receivers which is a positive but he has also shown his accuracy and decision making isn’t the best. I want him to start the rest of the season but we shouldn’t continue with the assumption that he’s going to develop into a QB that can elevate us to a championship.
That’s something’s that kinda been a deal-breaker for me. AOC runs like a duck. Every good modern QB has some element of extending plays with their legs or is a scrambling weapon. AOC is neither.
The dude ran for a fifteen yard first down yesterday (called back for penalty).
I understand he’s not the next coming of michael Vick, but I also do not believe he’s the statue people make him out to be. He’s adequate, which is goods enough for me.
