2079179, he's making good decisions by not being asked to make many

That's doing him a disservice because he certainly seems sharp enough to handle that workload & long-term that's an impedment to his development.

His numbers look shinier than Luck but he's not being asked to do as much & overall the team isn't really improving at similar rates, that will be an issue down the line if Shanny isn't going to treat him the same way he treated earlier young QB prospects because he's older with a shorter leash plus because Griffin can run.

A rookie QB year if you're going to throw a dude in there to start immediately is about survival & long-term development, the only way to ensure those is by actually coaching him to be a pocket passer from jump like Reid did with McNabb.

1000-yard-rushers (much like Cam's rushing TD record last year) are a ruse in the end for a quarterback.
