Yep. His pocket presence has been on display in multiple forms - subtle movements to avoid rushers and standing in a collapsing pocket to deliver a ball downfield knowing he is going to take a big hit.

His footwork is far better than what I expected based on draft guru type’s assertions. The only footwork breakdown I can think of is the one play that went viral from the Carolina game.

Other things of note. When he’s out there he looks juiced. It looks like he wants to run through walls to help the team win.

Communication and commraderie on full display. He and Benjamin missed on his first throw last night - you could see him communicating with his eyes to Benjamin as he came back to the huddle from his route and then they had a few quick words to talk things out - both guys nodding heads after.  Patting teammates helmets after plays. Putting his arm around his QB coach after they had to call time out because a play (seemingly) didn’t get in on time.

Changing plays at the line of scrimmage.

Cannon. Rocket. 12 Gauge Shotgun. Whatever you wanna call it - the kid can sling it. The ball gets where it’s going fast which is a huge advantage. He can stick it in tight spaces. (That’s what she said.) Also bubble screens will be all that more effective because the playmakers will have the ball in their hands quickly.

Needless to say - I’m excited.
