Watching the A day game to find signs of improvement from Milroe. He looks like the same guy to me.

Simpson looks improved.

Zone read is a pretty damn easy concept. Not sure Ive ever seen a QB as athletic as Milroe be so bad at it. He should be really good at it. Teams should have to gameplan against that. But its not a threat at all with JM. Simpson seems like he understands when to pull it and take off.

I think most fans fail to realize spring games are not where these coaches will make the decision on who's the guy. Both the offense and defense at a spring game are vanilla as can be. The "best on best" or other competition periods in practice are where the coaches will make up their mind. In a closed practice the offense and defense will throw everything they have at each other to find out who the 11 guys are that they can count on, so a spring game is more for the 3rd and 4th string guys to get more live reps in my opinion.

Correct. I was saying in the ADay thread or somewhere that Simpson is actually a much more dangerous runner because he understand when to run.

JM footwork and pocket awareness are not even in the same league as Simpson. It's really not close.
