Jake Haener (4 Viewers)

[Nightshade]

He started off 2/7 with a pic. You could see he had a case.of the nerves in his first game. After that he went 8/10 with a TD when he settled down.

He finished 10/17 105 yards 1 pic and 1 TD

He looked P/Od after that pick. Glad he was able to settle down. Growing pains!!!!

He did miss a Jimmy Graham down the field

Jake Heaner's Hair will go on.....

Drew saw it and said it well. He knows where to go with the ball, If he gets 1st team reps and where skill players get on the same page with him, he can be a starter. He is a perfect fit for this offense.

 

[Silly Burrito]

they need to change his player profile picture to one of his glamour shots

 

[Outbackjack]

The ball seems to rocket out of his hands…..I was highly impressed

Heard that too. .

had to listen to the Chiefs crew on Sirius driving back home and they were not impressed, if he takes screw ups to settle down then he can sit the year out. Makes me think Jeff Duncan calling him camp MVP confirms Jeff Duncan has bad judgment. Chiefs crew was also all over our DB's when the QB from South Dakota St was rolling down the field and not stuck on 3rd and long.

I agree on their back up QB’s seeming to have a field day.

On Jake I really believe he has what it takes to be a decent starter in this league, time will tell. I sure could be wrong, wouldn’t be the first time.

Hoping Jake gets some time with the 1’s and 2’s.

This is the perfect scenario this year for Haener.

The #2 QB has a lot of duties on the sideline and Payton never had a rookie as his #2 I think Allen will be the same way.

Haener can follow Winston and learn from him and Carr and that helps him prepare for the role in 2024.

The rule change is you can dress out a 3rd (emergency) QB even though he isn't on the 46 man game day roster.

Only caveat if he is activaed and enters the game #1 and 2 QBs are deactivated and can't reenter the game.

Most concerning things I noticed: He made a scared face when he was intercepted and when the ball was batted down. He needs to chill and settle down and not be emotional.

Best things I noticed: He makes his reads very quickly and the ball comes out. It's very common for rooks to hold the ball too long and bad things usually happen, not a problem with Haener.

He did improve as the game went on, I'll give him that. I'm not remotely convinced he'll end up as a legit NFL QB but I'm also not going toss him on the Garrett Grayson scrap heap yet, either.

 

[BELOWSEALEVEL]

I'm happy with what I saw today.
It's not like he could hand the ball off to Kamara, toss a screen to olave or hit Thomas on a curl. He also didnt have a superior line in front of him either.
Kid will be fine. He got better as he progressed through the game

I take Brees assessment over the Chiefs talking heads about Haener. And what scrambling QB doesn't run on us? They all do.
