A rookie qb without half his starters struggled against a top 10 nfl defense? Wow crazy

@tonyk7387 23 күн бұрын

Yeah for sure. I'm personally not worried about it bc Caleb by all reports is the guy who obsesses about improving and getting things right. You couple that with his insane abilities and just general ability in the pocket, he will be more than alright. Especially with Keenan, Rome, and the o line back. Darnell wright was not out there as well. But also neither was Montez so. I'm sure the next practice ot two we will hear about how solid the offense looked at times

I'm already sick of the excuses. How about Caleb Williams isn't good. I said it from the beginning I wouldn't touch this kid with a ten foot pole. He's a system qb who can't play in structure, he's only played 2% of his snaps under center, he's slow as hell and he holds on to the ball longer than Justin. Surely if he can walk on water he can throw a football. Tyson Bagent had a good practice against the same defense so I don't want to hear how he's a rookie because he should easily be able to outplay Bagent. Just face it guys USC quarterbacks are not good in the NFL and this will be no different. Caleb Williams will be a bust.
