The offensive line did him no favors. He stayed in the pocket the whole game with a ton of pressure.

His pocket awareness is Romo esque. He is very hard to bring down. His throws were a lot tighter. They gave him a little more leeway in terms of changing calls at the line. He looks the part. Risen tears should be able to power DFW for the next decade.

He was solidly efficient. He took what the defense gave him, made some critical throws for first downs, and, MOST OF ALL, he didn't make any reckless passes or throw any interceptions. He also used his legs well, not relying on them too much as young, scrambling quarterbacks do, but using them to elude sacks and, in this game, to score his first touchdown.

I think he's playing within himself now. As he gets more experience and his processing speed gets better, he's going to be an even better quarterback.

He's not as dynamic as Tony Romo was when he first started, but he's not as mistake prone either.

I'd give him an A-.

He has an element of fearlessness. He stands in against the rush and will take a hit in order to get the ball off.

it was a good game...for a vet

for a rookie, on the road, it was frigging incredible!
Good breakdown.

I thought he looked good for an NFL QB... Really good for a rookie. He held the ball too long and his improv is not a strength like it is for Romo.

He made some nice tight throws. He can't seem to get the fade down inside the red zone yet. Once things tighten up in the redzone, it seems like he hesitates.

I think he will only get better but right now he needs help from a run game and defense. I don't see him able to carry the team on his own like he may be asked to do right now.
