This isnt college where he can just throw bombs all game and live or die by it...it's too advanced, schematically, for that and the players/coordinators are too good. I think I read that he struggled against zone coverage...

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...
