He's learning the offense right now... we should expect mistakes. We should expect incorrect reads right now. I'm not saying he's a poor decision maker in general.That's what we said about Derek Anderson.
Assuming that mental errors and lack of consistency can be fixed is being overly optimistic. Both are dependent upon him having the right mental makeup for a QB, and we simply cannot know that yet. And if it was that certain, he wouldn't have lasted as long as he did in the draft.
So while he has all the physical potential in the world, and very well may overcome whatever it is that leads to those bad throws, bad decisions, and inconsistency, he also may not.
Anderson, I'm going to be honest, I couldn't stand him. I think he was not only a terrible processor, but he was highly inaccurate. I hated him in the midst of his "solid" season. He still made so many dumb throws. Most of his career was spent in the low-mid 50% completion percentage with us. Even his "pro bowl" year had a terrible completion percentage.
Kizer is young, and his mechanics are a bit inconsistent. At times, he's spot on with his footwork and the ball is on the money. At other times, he breaks down. This is what I expect Hue to fix through repetition and good coaching. This guy was a redshirt sophomore coming out--he just needs the time. Now that this is his job, I expect sharp improvement.
