Gunslinger.....future looks real good.


Couple things from the highlights:

1) He's fearless with his throws. Could be a good thing or a bad thing, similar to Matt Stafford. Believes his arm strength can fit the ball into tight windows.

2) Good accuracy. He's hitting guys in stride 45yds downfield while throwing off balance. Very difficult to do.

3) Better touch than I thought. For as strong an arm as he has, his screens and short throws were softer and with good touch. Usually you see young QBs always throw hard.

4) Seems like he is mobile enough to move when he needs to so don't expect a statue in the pocket.


He'll be a good one.

I thought his offensive line was setting up a screen pass the entire video. They were terrible. With that said, he has a strong arm, good feet and has decent enough speed to pick up a first down when the pocket breaksdown. Seems to have plenty of confidence and can just flat out sling it. Pretty quick release as well.

I ca'tn really say that I think he or AJ is better than the other. Just different. They are gonna push each other and possibly split snaps at times. I really think that they both have what it takes to make a huge impact soon. Future is looking good. Hopefully we can adjust the offense a little to fit both of their strengths. I think AJ sees the field first due to his speed.
