Better than average for a first year starter... I'd give him a solid C+ considering all the b.s. he had to put up with...

Had very solid games against not only the Broncos and Texans (as you mentioned, but also your Patriots, Jets, Bucs in a game they had to win, game 1 vs SD, in Miami, in Buffalo, ok against that Ravens defense...

Shit thats 10 games in which he played pretty damn well considering his limited experience.. In those 10 games he had a respectable passer rating and threw 13 tds versus 4 interceptions...

Now there were some games in which he stunk the joint up, but thats to be expected from an essential rookie and a team that was in as much turmoil as we were to open the season...
