Right now, we don't have him blowing up any receivers coming across the middle for obvious reasons. So, he will shine when it's live. He's got the experience. I know he's ready to do that. He's been just kind of holding back. Chomping at the bit, sort of. You'll see it.

Pretty darn. He was a busy guy. He was right on course to being a heck of a football player.

I care about this state... and I feel a responsibility to get things done. If we stay healthy and play smart we can be a playoff team. I think we're on the right track.

Is he going to be as good as he's going to be halfway through the season or next year? No. I mean, he's just a kid. He's just learning this stuff. But he should be ready to be productive and capable and able to make some plays for us in that game, whatever his role might be.

There are no excuses for a game like this,

We're taking a look, if we choose to add another quarterback. We want to take a good look at him and see how he learns our offense -- if he's a candidate to bring back at another time. We've seen him play on film in a very exciting offense. He's been productive.
