I just have to believe that Siriani and Reich can coach it into him. By and large this D, for some of the shortcomings they have illustrated, have proven that they can carry the water after a TO. I want to see a game where he throws caution to the wind and uncorks the ball and see what happens. If he can develop that skill, shit Brissett may end up being a league MVP type guy.
His deep ball timing is terrible

Similar deal- trust it and let the MF'er go- twice on those throws to Cain- though they've gotten us big chunks- he's .5 to .75 too late- let the fucker go and trust your guys to make a play! The throw on the run to TY- damn man you can't throw a ball any better- just gotta be willing to try it more in the scheme than in a moment of despair.

Agree on deep ball. Not so sure I want him to try to throw into tighter coverage. Love his lack of interceptions.

Game Manager = Low interception rate

More accurately put, Game Managers have a low interception rate,

Low Interception rate does not necessarily = Game Manager

I would like to see him get the ball out under 3 seconds. He holds onto to it too long. He is awesome at escaping thankfully. If he wasn’t his sack numbers would be huge. But ideally I would like to see 2.5 seconds then release. Maybe Funchess and Campbell will help this, but he needs to get the ball out. Even with this line it is too long.

I think it's his inability to go through his progressions quickly. If his first look isn't open, he just takes too long finding the 2nd and 3rd option. Hopefully, he can improve this, or the playoffs will be 1 and done.

This has been a common refrain that I've seen on Twitter and I don't agree with it. I've looked at every play and Brissett is missing about 2-3 reads per game. In other words, he's been grading at over 90% on reading the field.

I broke this down in my recap of the Chiefs game, but Mahomes missed at least 5 big plays that easily would've swung the game against the Colts. Every QB has some up and down games and hardly anyone is perfect in that regard.

I'm heading out on vacation tomorrow and won't be able to grade the DEN and PIT games until after the MIA game, but here's where I think Brissett is after 7 games:

Pros:
-Has an NFL arm; you don't have to limit the playbook in that regard
-Works the pocket well
-Hard to bring down, can extend plays
-Puts very few throws in harms way

Areas for Improvement:
-More refined timing. At times, he isn't in sync with receivers, particularly on the deep ball.
-Needs to help receivers get open more often via timing/ball placement and using his eyes.
-When evading pressure, keep eyes downfield for big play. He's had a few more of these in recent games, so we're already seeing improvement here.
-Ball protection vs the rush

Needs Further Evaluation:
-Blitz reads, particularly hitting the hot read. This is something I want to key on when I watch the Denver game. However, it may be that the play design lacks the necessary option or the receiver missed it.

‪Overall, I'd grade him as a B/B+ through 7 games. He’s certainly answered whether or not he’s a Top 20 QB. The question now is whether he can improve enough to warrant Top 10 and “Franchise QB” consideration.‬

Great analysis as usual. For a guy that really has call it 2 years of starting experience under his belt- the guy has shown a lot of promise. Refine some of the rough edges and we may have something exceptional in JB.
