IMO, and only being a fan and couch observer, Davis has earned another start. However, I am not at practice, in the film room, or behind closed doors so I can only speculate.....
But I am starting to think there is obviously something holding Fisher back from going with Davis. But what is it? Bad picks (because Hill's pick was pretty bad in the opener), youth, lack of knowledge, still learning?
Anyway, this quote sure got me thinking more about it from the presser yesterday..."I thought he played, like I said last night, good enough to win, but you got to see where you’re cutting that ball loose and he didn’t. He cut that ball loose, he got some pressure and cut it loose. Interception for a touchdown is not a good thing. It happens, but overall I thought he played a little bit better than he did last week.”
Played good enough to win?
A "little" better than last week?
I thought he played great except for that one big mistake, but he is basically a rookie.
I thought he played much better than last week except for that one big mistake, but again, he is a rookie.
Does Fisher really value making smart decisions (no turnovers) more than potential or play making ability or ability to move the ball down the field?
So my question is, although the fan base seems to heavily favor Davis for his excitement, play making ability and a sense of "freshness" at the QB position, what is the reason for Fisher's reluctance to go with Davis?
Is it his in-experience and youth?
I used to think he was just throwing a smoke-screen at opposing defenses and not naming a starter until needed, now I am starting to think something else is going on.
Any thoughts?
