Could Rattler be our QB1 after another year or 2 of development? (merged) (7 Viewers)

[showstopper]

My opinion yes. He's very poised and a leader.

 

[limeyjohn]

Was very impressed on how quick he got the ball out, also some excellent throws

 

[DavidM]

He has the arm talent and plays with a lot of confidence and swagger. Needs experience. The rest of this season is a great opportunity to get him that experience.

 

[kennydfresh]

At least 1 more year to sit until you will know what you will have in Rattler, he is and still a 3 year project. The next 3 games could increase his confidence which is what i wanted to get out of these starts for him.

 

[Rouxble]

He has the most potential of any QB on the roster, but I would still be in favor of finding another one.

 

[muddbug2]

He should be the starter this year and into camp next year.

The man to beat.

 

[WhoDat?DrewDat]

I'm all for letting him start from here on out. Move on from Carr (who is not the problem nor solution) and let this franchise rebuild with some better picks.

I'd rather root for a young team with promise than whatever the heck this year has been.

For the capital we gave up to get him, it’d be a win if Rattler just developed into a solid backup. It’s early, but I don’t know if i see him developing into anything more than a backup. We have to keep looking until it’s obvious we found a starter.

 

[Rdanderson91]

He could be our QB1 right now as far as I’m concerned. He has a certain “don’t give a ****”” mentality when throwing the ball. I’d take that all day every day over the timid play we get from Carr and Haener

 

[Mojomajik9]

He has the talent to be the guy. He showed very good command of the offense today. I think that was something he was missing in his prior starts. Like David said, I would start Rattler the rest of the year. Let him get experience and build chemistry with the O line.

If he strings together some good to great performances it really allows the draft to be more BPA than focused on finding a QB to groom for the future.

 

[JRead2]

One thing today's game made me realize is that I don't think our QB of the future is on the team.

 

[meily]

He does not need developmental years. He, like Carr, needs better players around him on offense.

Rattler mounted a comeback with nothing to work with on offense outside of Miller; he threw on time to spots and made plays; he brought that team back, not any skill position player. That was all Rattler and his ability to play the position.

 

[DeuceMcAllisterFan]

I think Rattler learned a lot from his experience earlier in the year and this is the result of his progression since.

Like who?

How? We had a rookie QB with less than 2 quarters who orchestrated a damn near perfect comeback win against one of the better teams in the league.
