He hasn't thrown four pick sixes. He's thrown three. The Dallas one is inexcusable. The other two don't really matter much to me.
I'm fine with either approach. I just want a functional offense.
I will say this, he's not Drew Brees. I know people are excited but it was time his hype train slowed down some. However, I gotta believe if they don't screw us on that Cook call...Davis finishes with a strong outing against SF.
He needs to improve but I think he's FLASHED a Romo type ceiling. Not sold he'll get anywhere close to that. But he's flashed it. I wouldn't be a bit surprised, though, if he ends up being a Ryan Fitzpatrick type player. I need to see more from him but I've seen enough good that I think it's worth getting him more experience. The bad hasn't been overwhelming.
If you're calling his play poor, we can stop the conversation here. I am fine with a rational discussion but I am not going to spend time having a discussion that isn't rational. Davis's play has been inconsistent but it hasn't been poor.
The reason for qualifying that statement is that expectations have been a bit high for him and your comment that he was close to being cut and out of the league. Well, he didn't get cut and he's actually played really well for a backup. Which is worth pointing out because backup QBs are valuable in the NFL.
What matters to me, though, is how he plays for a STARTER...and that's still unresolved. I want to see how he rebounds. And, of course, I want to see how he deals with Seattle's insanely talented defense.
However, as I said, lets not holding him to higher standards than Bradford. Sam had some bad games against SF and Seattle...especially when the OL wasn't getting the job done.
