He was introduced to the NFL last night hahah his helmet needs more work.  But I agree, I want to see him behind a functional online.  I turned it off early.  Did the seattle QB show anything good?

a raw rookie got thrown into the fire for the first time ever on the road. Yeah some of his throws didn’t have zip, couple of them did. I remember players talking about how strength continues to develope first couple of year either from professional weight room regimen, to working on mechanics(especially lower body) and the fact they are young and still growing. Dude seems smart and has some dog in him. I won’t jump off a building just yet. Raw receivers, bad line, tough blitzing d.. not looking for excuses but you can’t ignore the fact that there was nothing in his favor. Even backups on the other team tend to have years of experience in the league while he had 0. Only thing to legit think about is the lack of arm strength on some of the throws. But QBs can have success in a good system if they are smart and have good timing. This is all new to him and playing while having to think about everything instead of reacting makes a world of difference. Give the kid some time to learn and continue to get stronger. As for taven, it’s hard to defend his lack of production. He was suppose to be strong quick and athletic but he is getting tossed around and not impacting the game. He should still make some splash plays and pressure off athletic ability alone. I’ll root for him but Caldwell should feel the heat for that pick
