I'm just trying to figure out why certain people are hellbent on nitpicking this guy's rookie season so much. Especially considering the trash he's working with, and the fact that he's also working with a rookie head coach. Every rookie QB isn't going to be Cam Newton out the gate (Hell, most won't, for that matter). Derek Carr's average pass was 5.46 yards his rookie year. Now he's a legitimate MVP candidate.
I mean, I get it. ESPN went crazy with the comparisons three weeks in, and some Eagle fans (none on this board, as far as I know) may have gotten a little extra happy getting T-shirts made and the whole Wentzmania crap, but y'all have been watching football long enough to know how this goes.
An intelligent take
