Just like Harris, Jennings has also improved from last year. LINK Neither Harris nor Jennings is perfect, but they have both shown big improvement.



just don't know how you can say this. His videos have looked poor. He missed alot of time while being suspended from the team. He has been arrested. He has been passed up by Harris. Unless you are going by the feeling of he cant be any worse, that I can agree with

I tend to agree that the offense will be better. The serious concern is the defense and particularly the defensive ends. Quarterbacks will be better. The irrational exuberance says Brandon Harris will be all conference, rational expectations says better than 50% of his passes complete and some key plays with his legs. Irrational exuberance says the defensive ends will be as good as last years pair at stopping the run and better at sacking the quarterback. Rational expectation says we'll have problems setting the edge and maybe as good at getting to the quarterback.

(1) Both Harris and Jennings looked better in the Spring Game.

(2) Miles said they are both "night and day" better right now.

(3) They both look better right now. LINK They look pretty equivalent.

(4) QBs tend to get better under Miles.

Have there been some bad throws in practice? Sure. (monsterballads is more than happy to post Jennings' bad throws. He lives for that shite.) But are we talking about the first week of . . . practice?

That doesn't make him get worse, and I'm sure he threw footballs during that time.

He has been arrested.
. . . and the charges were dropped because the "victim's" stories were inconsistent.

Good for Harris. Looks like the summer really paid off. Nevertheless, Harris's marked improvement is irrelevant to whether Jennings has improved.
