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.
IMO he is staring down receivers - which is part of the reason he had 3 picks yesterday. Don’t think he’s going through progressions well atm
Still agree with giving him some time tho
He isn’t getting time to work through progressions. Frequently, he is getting time for a single look and then his check down.
An OK QB will thrive behind a top quartile o-line. We have an OK quarterback behind a bottom quartile o-line. This is rookie year Peyton Manning type stuff: even he looked bad behind that o-line.
With all due respect to AOC and his talent...we're comparing 4th round QBs to former Heisman candidates now?
