And he has a perfect situation where the team can help him out. I just don't see the downside of playing him. It's just not as risky these days to immediately throw a qb into the fire.

Why? How?
What did he do on Sunday that Taylor doesn't do? None of his scoring drives were beyond Taylor's ability and both of his major mistakes are mistakes that Taylor doesn't make.
What have you seen to suggest that he's clearly a superior option to Taylor?
Tyrod Taylor isn't Matt Cassel. He's not an actively bad quarterback. He's a veteran placeholder who will make your team exactly as good as it is.
The downside is EXACTLY what you saw in the 2nd half of that game Sunday when he was more responsible for the Chargers losing that ballgame than anything Anthony Lynn did. He simply was not as good as you seem to think he was and you're hand-waiving his mistakes while simultaneously saying "What's the worst that could happen" - uh...exactly what DID happen.
