re: All i know about Howard is that he was highly rated out of high school.

stronger arm than Nuss

I'm not advocating for either, but Nuss' arm talent isn't all about strength; it's the quickness of his delivery. That is a rare, and useful, talent.

He is not getting the most out of that talent, right now, because he stares down receivers. When a QB stares at his target the DBs begin moving that way. Effective QBs move the defense with their eyes, then pivot to where they're not.

The MOST effective QBs then deliver the ball quickly, so the defense can't react fast enough. But QBs rarely have the quick delivery that Nuss has. That's natural, not learned. If he learns read the defense, then to move the defense, he will then exploit his quick delivery.
