And btw, I would start him. Even if I do not believe he is ready. So what if you lose 41-0 the next two weeks? You are not going to the playoffs. Hell I would have started him after Florida for that reason. There is no downside. He performs well? Great. You have your QB. He sucks? Great. Go get another QB in the portal.
Agreed. He's made enough progression to run this offense with tweaks to win football games. He'll keep the offensive line and teams would stop blitzing afraid he'd take off or find the deep ball one on one. The deep pass is his most dangerous.
