Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence. Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame. His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit. He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo. He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more. His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
