Calzada improved markedly over the season, especially being gimpy with his left knee and shoulder. He still has a ways to go fixing his footwork.


Disagree, Calzada had some slightly better games against bad opponents (Mizzou, USCe) his fundamentals never really got better. His accuracy is bad, he throws off his back foot all the time, and he still doesn’t see open guys. He really has not progressed much this season and had two games over 200 yards. In the modern age of college football, not having a 300 yard game for the season is crazy.

No doubt his footwork needs major improvement but I thought he played very well last night for the amount of duress he was under. Earlier in the year he would have turned the ball over multiple times on plays where rushers got in his face by just throwing the ball up for grabs.

He has a lot of upside if he can settle his feet, keep improving going through his progressions, and getting the ball out on time. No idea if he will be able to do it but we will see how he comes out of the offseason. Worst case scenario should be he is a solid backup after all of the game reps he has played.

I just don't see how anybody can compare how he started during his first 2 or 3 games to where he has ended up and argue that he has not improved.
