I saw it, it was a throw a person who is making their first career start in the middle of a game might make. Either way, he's going to play next week too, so we'll see if he takes anything away from it. But yeah, it was a bad throw.


He had a couple of good ones too.


Honestly, I think he played just about how I thought he would play. If he was that good, he would have won the starting job over Dalton in camp. He's solid but, I mean to play in the NFL, you have to be solid.

But in reality, he's just a backup for now and nothing today made me believe he could be anything more than that. Feel free to downvote but, that is my honest opinion.

I agree with most of what you're saying. The only way his career path changes is if Dalton keeps getting hurt and he shows a little more caution. His second INT was a worse throw IMO. Into triple coverage over the receiver. The first one is more about his deficiencies with his arm strength, the second was just a dumb pass.

But again, he had a lot of good throws too.

You guys can say he had tds, but the last one was garbage time with several defensive backups in the game. He had an okay game. You'll never be able to judge a player's ability on their first game. He could be amazing or a professional backup. I'd be excited if I were a bama fan, just to see him get a chance.
