I'm torn, I thought we got a steal when we picked up #7. Then all that crazy stuff happened after Warner called it quits, that's when I thought we would see what he could do but it was not be. The way he and Whiz handled it sucked almost as bad as our QB play since we lost #7 and Warner.
Truth is, Hot-tub has a quality team around him, with a decent OC. Everybody likes to harp on his work ethic, his having "no" what ever in the "locker room", or his comprehension skills when it comes to a "NFL" playbook.
Smel will tell you 3 times a day when he aint elk hunting, Captain checkdown was getting it done in his own way via Whiz's offense. That blitz would come and he would fire one out quick like, which I liked because it gets the D playing tighter and tighter (less cushion as well), so you could burn that coverage later in the game.
That's where we come back to Whiz's "Let them know we are going to throw and throw deep" kind of offense. While out dated and under ballanced, it takes a lot of time to get comfortable in. It's like being the bait so you can save your friends, knowing the monsters are coming, you gotta be cool.
So I don't know if he will be under prepared, if he will toss it as soon as it's snapped with out any pressure. I think he has been waiting for this for a long time, made the right choice not going to the chickens, and (this is my biggest fear) spawn 87,000 threads on how we let him go for nothing.
I'm rooting for #7 I think, but I won't be upset at all if he goes shwag mode.
