But yeah, Driskel isn't another Matt Scott; he's done this against 2nd and 3rd stringers for 2 years now and is far and away the most athletic/strongest arm of our 3 (4?) QBs.

Why I was so high on his performance, is because he made great decisions, was accurate on his deep and intermediate throws and his pocket presence/scrambling was fantastic; the way he weaved in and out of defenders and still made STRONG and ACCURATE throws on the run... it was a great sight.

Indeed, like everyone, I want to see him against 2s.

Since he let his girlfriend have his cajones, and tell him what to think, say and eat, he is underweight and his arm is dead. When he became a vegan (old indian term meaning piss poor hunter) , he hasn't looked healthy since. If he still had any game at all left in him, one of these teams would have signed him. Maybe not MB or Jerry Jones, but Miami, Seattle, etc., he would be loved..... he just isn't any good anymore.

I believe Driskel is leaps and bounds better than Barkely, there's little doubt in my mind. I'd like to see Dalton only play one series then bring Driskel in against some better competition and see what he can do.

I hope we get to see Woodside as well.

I see more upside with Driskell and think the more reps he gets, the better he could get. He is more athletic as well so we could put in some special packages for him and use him a play once in a while to catch defenses off guard.

I still would like to see him play against the number 1's and with our #1's, the 2's at a minimum, but I think we would learn a lot if we started him a preseason game week 2 or 3. Game #4 in preseason is meaningless as neither #1's will play.

I think some get confused on Dalton's ability to escape pressure (which is average at best in my opinion) versus his ability to run/pass on the move. He throws the ball accurately on the run which is not easy to do., we just have not given him many chances to do it.
