What I think people maybe forget (you) or simply refuse to acknowledge (others), is that theres a legit reason for those pedestrian early season numbers... not only was he new to the team but the system was brand new, a system widely regarded as the hardest to learn. The entire team was also learning this complicated system.
So they were still feeling their way through early on, learning each others tendencies and trying to get the system down... that led Alex to go into hardcore game manager mode, which is the right thing to do in that situation, not trying to wing it deep when you're not sure if the receiver is even gonna run the correct route, minimize turnovers to aid the defense that was rolling etc.
I dont think its coincidence that as the season wore on we seen things open up, we did end up averaging 35ppg the last seven games... nothing to sneeze at.

I agree. Which is why I'm down with him getting more reps this preseason. I'm just saying I'd rather those reps be taken away from Daniel rather than Bray or Murray.
