He's mentally tough and resilient, and that will earn respect, but I don't think it's enough to put a team in the SB.

Alex has twice the Arm Ca$$hole had. HE CAN zing it in there.
He's reluctant. He trusts his brain more than his talent.
He'll hold the ball FOR-EH-VER while deciding where to go with hit. He WILL progress through his reads (unlike Ca$$hole's "is Bowe open?...nope...CHECK DOWN!) and almost always take the highest percentage pass.
That pass most often being short, under 15 yards, and after 4 or 5 seconds.
It's not that he can't step up it's that he's so timid due to YEARS of completely sucking that he's fully leashed for life.
It's like trying to rip the armor off of Vader...
