I mean fuck he was touted as extremely fucking raw and inaccurate and he’s shown to be exactly that. Why is that a huge surprise? I think mainly because 1) he looked better than expected in limited time last year. And 2) people are finally getting tired of Ballards perpetual rebuild. Let’s let the kid fail on his own and not add Ballard’s failures to it.

Problem with that is he’s failing miserably, every time he gets hit he whinces and has bitter beer face, he can’t hit the broad side of a barn accuracy wise, he’s not on the same page with any WR on the dam team, his pocket presence has been horrendous, he moves into pressure most of the time, his situational football awareness is a joke, couldn’t even get a Hail Mary off vs a 3 man rush.
He’s gotten worse and worse than that he still has no clue what it is to be a leader out there. All the guidance, counseling and management they receive and he walked into a press conference and said “I was tired”
Every other QB over the last 5 years had a choker chain of a leash, 1 false step and Irsay was done with them. I still say Brissett and Wentz weren’t given a fair shake. Yet this guy has been given pass after pass because he’s young.
I have defended him since the draft and I simply cannot do it anymore, I really wanted him to succeed but he had a redshirt year and has gotten worse in year 2. Not slightly, I’m talking embarrassing laughable clown type backyard football. He’s making a mockery of the position, the team, and the game of football.
