Jennings=Jordan Jefferson with brains and pocket presence

He also is something JJ never was...a passer (JJ was a thrower). Jennings has more touch and accuracy than JJ ever had or ever will. Jennings also has much better instincts.

So basically there is very little similarity between them.

Both there last names start with J.

This kid has a chance to be coached up also.

Rivers looked far superior. Jennings should be ready to roll by his RS JR year though.

I honestly think Jennings is a really heady player. He seems to have a great motor for someone who could still be a HS senior.

I like Jennings. I like what I've seen out of him so far and believe that he has a bright future here, but it's pretty incredible how quickly everyone is overlooking the performance from Rivers. He was statistically on par with Mett and looked pretty good.

I'm not arguing either way, but how can you say this when all you have to go on is his high school film and a spring game?

Pretty sure you're breaking the laws of racial QB descriptors.

I've seen a lot of him over the past year. I introduced the RB to Jennings.

His decision making and football instincts are top notch.

I don't think I need to talk about JJ's decisions and instincts.

Jennings reminds me a lot of Flynn. People forget how good Flynn was as a dual threat QB.

I dont think anyone should have to talk about this because its ridiculous Jefferson even gets brought up when talking about Jenning

Mauck too was a run first, throw second qb until he hurt his ankle IMO. Like his clock was way too short in the pocket. When his mobility was hindered, his reading and throwing got better.

i ended up watching both quarters anyways and saw the throw in there. He looks like he has great potential. Our QB talent is starting to hover around "respectable" levels.

Our place kicking however is shite. Did they make one kick including XP's in both quarters?
