Defend what?  I'm just pointing out that its interesting Eason is getting 1st team reps.  If the 2nd team QB is getting 1st team reps every week then that's news to me.

I think it's more due to the fact that he wasn't around for training camp/preseason so he's had literally zero reps aside from playing some scout team.

Define "physically".

He's certainly got great size for a quarterback, but I don't remember him necessarily being anything special in the athleticism department.

Size. Cannon. 
 

“Pure pocket passer” physically lol. 
 

Let’s call it the Drew Bledsoe physique.

And I think Bledsoe would have a hard time in today's game.

There's a reason why the player comparison here is from 20 years ago.

To be fair, I've heard the same about Tom Brady.

He's arguably one of the least athletic quarterback prospects in the league. He's also one questionably the most successful.

(and I don't buy that it's only because he's some kind of unicorn)

Brady's high level of awareness in the pocket combined with his footwork makes him good at buying time and evading the rush (for a pure pocket passer type).

Combine that with his Gumby like physique and pliability, and he is heavily resistant to injuries as well.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
