The K-State game was his worst of the season.
In the Pinstripe Bowl he showed the ability to quickly go through his progressions and made some nice throws - the two outs on the far side of the field were excellent throws.

It took the deep threat out of his hands, which is one of his strengths. That and Syracuse running the ball so effectively.
Whatever. You don't think that the weather played a part, then I don't know what to tell you.

As Gochiefs had pointed out (in defense of Geno) that he's actually played a better game in similar, snowy conditions. And as OTWP58 has pointed out, good players are suppose excel despite those shitty conditions.

So, if:
16/24
197 yards
2 TDs
0 Ints
163.1 rating
is shit and his worst game, considering the conditions, what were your expectations? What did Geno have to do to meet your approval?

Yeah but, what about Nassib?
SERIOUSLY? Who gives a **** about Nassib? Are we talking about Nassib going #1 overall? Are you comparing the #1 QB in the draft to a guy who will likely be the 4th-6th QB off the board? You think that's a valid comparison?

Because if you would rather not draft Geno with the first pick, and, say, go LT Luke Joeckel, then you are probably looking at a guy like Nassib in the second round.
And I think it's a valid comparison in the exact same game and conditions that you are judging Geno with. Nassib is a high level college QB that has set almost every single Syracuse passing record. He's accurate with a strong arm. Plus he had the support of a much better run game.
I think it's a valid comparison in an effort to see how much the weather conditions actually affected the passing game that day.
But you keep ****ing ranting on about somebody else not being able to see the "big picture." You go you.
