Like I pointed out last week, give the kid a chance with the starters and a couple of weeks of reps and he's a baller. They don't have to morph anything for him, he knows the system perfectly and is capable of running it. He just put up over 350 yds. and 31 points in regulation, against a team that was either sitting in or playing to be #1 seed in the AFC.... in their house. 86.5% percentage, the highest of any QB in their 1st or 2nd start. Chase is healthy, Tee is back, if Boyd could stop dropping the ball (love you Tyler) there's nobody on the schedule we can't beat. We won't win them all of course, but this team is still in the playoff hunt.

I don't know how if under value is proper term, since he had no track record in NFL and had not achieved much against Pitt, I don;t count the Ravens game at all, since he was thrown in there against a tough defense that had already put pressure on Burrow and were effective.

I did say though that we had more hope with Jacksonville since they dont come close at all to pressures and sacks like Balt and Pitt and very happy with what I saw from Browning and hope he can have two strong back to back games with a Colt team that also is not great in pressures and sacks.

We need to continue that protection to give him time to read the field, running the ball effectively is the key to helping a young QB, so i think we do those two things sunday and he continues to play low to turnover free at QB we have a shot to win Colts and Minn whose teams front lines are not great.
