FTR I like Geno, and I hope the Chiefs get him if they think he is the best available QB.

What?
Other than the first drive, Nassib was inaccurate on even the short throws and threw an interception. He looked horrible. He didn't even come close to making the throws Geno made today.
And I really like the guy.
It was shit conditions that were not conducive to the passing game.
But don't go full reerun.
Nassib:
12/24
127 yards
50% completion
2 TD's
1 Int
113.6 rating
Geno:
16/24
187 yards
66.7% completion
2 TD's
0 Ints
159.6 rating
Both QB's had receivers drop balls that were right in their hands. Geno had several passes come back for shitty holding penalities.
And Syracuse's offensive line is substantially better than WVU's.
People who haven't watched WVU a lot seem to think that Geno should automatically put up 500 and 4 TDs every game. They don't watch how freaking porous his offensive line was for the entire season and how horrible the defense was. The guy has literally been throwing to his receivers while under a ton of pressure the entire year.
You put him in a game where it's damn near impossible to drive the ball down the field vertically against a team that is running the ball down their throats and it's going to be a tough hill to climb.
But most of the Geno detractors don't have the mental capacity to understand things like this.
They didn't see him making multiple reads all game long, making NFL level passes, making solid audibles at the line of scrimmage. They just know that he didn't pass for 500 yards and 6 TDs thus he must suck. |
