I like what I saw out of him from time to time. He has the ability to escape and buy time for a critical play.

He can make pretty good throws under pressure. He just has to show consistency in year two.

Sophmore slumps are very real. So that's why I am tempering my expectations for him. There's a lot of holes to fill.

My concerns would be finding him a viable option at the TE position. Finding him another WR like Chark. And certainly addressing the LT and RG positions in particular.

But the defense could hinder some of that this off season if we lose Dareus, Campbell and Bouye. The back seven is weak enough as it is.

Losing two big bodies on the front four will hurt us. We'll see though.

Teams will have tape on him now, but he'll also have tape on himself and a whole off season to tear it apart and break it down.

He should also have a full off season/camps/preseason with an Offense that's built for him, rather than one that got thrown together in week 2 of the season when the bullets were flying.

He doesn't strike me as somebody who's just going to go into cruise control this off season and party it up. I have no doubt he'll continue to push and try to get better for next season.

Agree.  They already said he was working on the other players line ups and responsibilities in the play book so he would know everyone's responsibilities on the plays.  Seems to be a committed guy that will put in the work.  He said that was where Foles experience helped him as well.  I hope for the best and like the guy.  I just hope the front office can do enough work this offseason.
