One way of looking at it for me is, I see how much improvement DTR has shown in live game action against elite defenses from game 1 to game 2. In my opinion he made a pretty large leap in his performance, mainly by sticking to the ultra conservative plan and by not screwing up. I expect to see him continuing to improve with each game, on a steep curve, until he starts to reach his true level for a first year quarterback (whatever that level is). Stefanski will put more on his plate gradually, never all at once.
It's not going to be a steady curve, there will be peaks and dips. He's going to screw up at some point, and hopefully he'll put up some unexpectedly good plays also. But through it all Kevin Stefanski will be pulling back on the reigns, emphasizing the need to minimize mistakes and turnovers.
That's how player development works. I'm having a really hard time wrapping my head around some of these opinions, like DTR is supposed to be some kind of finished product in game 2 of his NFL career. I mean, WTF are some of you thinking and expecting?
