He's as pro ready as a passer as you are going to find in this day and age. And that's a fact.

That may be, but when Geno Smith says that he learned the entire offense in 3 days, that makes it look like a shitty system.

And that's not Geno's fault at all. It's his shitty coaches fault.

Comparing the an NFL offense to WVU's is like comparing the MCAT to a pop quiz. It's gonna take a bit for Geno to catch onto the game. The speed of the game won't be a big problem for him IMO. The X's and O' are what is going to take him some time to figure out.

But I think Geno will have that down in due time, just not at first.

Seriously? Lazy feet? Not a chance.

You want to see the difference between happy feet and active feet?

Mark Sanchez versus Geno Smith.

Sanchez has horrible foot work.

Smith is moving his feet in order to keep them shoulder width and to have a quick plant when he throws. With his exceptionally quick release and arm strength, Smith doesn't need to hunker down and plant like Barkley does in order to get the ball downfield. He's moving them to keep mobility in the pocket and keep them square. Two totally different things.

The air raid isn't the only offense he mastered quickly.

The kids football IQ is off the charts.

Maybe he's just that ****ing good.

I think I'm back on the Geno bandwagon. Despite the 5 losses in a row. He looks like he has the best potential. His quick release, footwork and leadership qualities really turn me on.

Even Geno himself said the system was simple.

I really like Geno Smith but I fear so much that the Jaguars are going to take him before we have the chance.

Jordan probably told people it was easy to dunk from the freethrow line, too.

1) look how they played against Houston once Henne took over at QB

2) look at their upcoming schedule

3) profit

Nothing about Dana Holgorsen leads me to believe his offense is complicated in any way. At all.

How about before Dana got there and he had mastery of a pro style offense?

Here's just one highlight video from his sophomore season..

Dude, he didn't have "mastery". He ran it reasonably well.

Exaggeration planet.

WTF?

Completing 65% of his passes while throwing 24tds to only 7 ints and having a 144 rating isn't showing his mastery of the system?

FFS that was his first year starting and was only 19 years old.

It shows he can run a pro offense. I don't doubt he has football iq. But if he mastered the system in his first year, he would be considered an elite prospect. Don't make this into more than it is. Hes shown he can run an nfl offense. He hasn't shown nearly enough that he can do it as masterfully as you need to on the pro level. Hence, the risk factor.
