This isnt college where he can just throw bombs all game and live or die by it...it's too advanced for that and the players/coordinators are too good.
He's not ready...both technically nor in experience. He's 21 years old. Watching Smith for a year is about as good of a mentor as he could ask for...there are things he needs to still learn at this level. There is a game inside the game...

Then Alex needs to stay healthy and do his job with the offense so we don't have to worry about it, but nobody can guarantee that won't happen.
