You're not a downer on Hunt.  People have a right to be skeptical.  He looked like the future when he was given the reigns against Wagner and Tulane, then struggled mightily against the bulk of the schedule before really coming on against BC and Minnesota.  That in and of itself is inconsistent.

Then his 2014 season, putting aside the fact that I'm sure McDonald's confusion laden offense had it's own negative impact on him, he still looked like he regressed.  McDonald's offense didn't cause him to sail 5 yard passes 15 feet over receivers' heads.  McDonald's offense didn't cause him to overthrow on long balls.   Now the last two games he played that season, I'm convinced he was also negatively affected by injury and playing hurt - but he doesn't deserve a complete pass on the 2014 season because of McDonald and injuries.  He looked rough before the injuries.

Hopefully the positive signs out of camp so far indicate that he's more of his Wagner, Tulane, BC and Minnesota self and not the self in between those games and the early part of the 2014 season.  He still has a lot to prove.  And the Dungey news I feel is the best thing for Hunt - to have someone who could legitimately be nipping at his heels for playing time this season as the season progresses will help keep him sharp and focused.
