I don't know, don't know....

I don't know any more about him than the next guy obviously. What I do think though is that he is a guy people are going to look to as a leader and if he can build confidence to the level that guys on this squad start thinking "ya know what, we don't need Luck to do this, he's pretty F'ing good", I think JB could explode under Reich's guidance.

I was out so it was hard to keep track but I kept seeing posts in the game day thread about how they had no confidence in him, that Luck had sapped all the energy from the team. I kept seeing a guy making good reads and delivering some nice throws and orchestrating a good team.

The guy has a rocket arm, it may not be a laser rocket arm, and it may never get to that laser level. But I gotta believe with 4 guys like TY, Cain, PC, and Hines- we're going to see some monster bomb TD's. If we can establish the run like we have shown we can- dude has the chance to destroy some defenses with the deep ball.

One thing we knew about Luck- he was tough, ummmm Brisset got sacked 52 fucking times- and he got up and played pretty much every down. I think we can already pin that toughness label on JB as well.

He's not Luck, but he is pretty good...based on one game.

I kinda look at it from the standpoint of what Reich / Sirani can do for a guy in terms of game elevation.

I think they can take a good player that wants to work hard and commit to the program, and they can put them in the upper tier of QB play, maybe top 12-15 guys at the position.

I was on Brisset way back saying I thought he was a guy that could get it done.

I know we have a very limited sample size but it won't take me a lot of games to move all the way to the VERY good player, turned into an elite level QB just based on the fact he came in as a skilled guy that needed some refinement and some skilled guys around him, including manning the sidelines.

I kind of look at Luck as a baseline HOF'er regardless of coach, but with Reich he could have elevated to icon stature with multiple MVPs.

One game doesn’t make or break a career. Going to see where we are six games in. Can Brisset pass us to a win when the run is shut down?

Briskets performance yesterday was really encouraging. He may not play in a more challenging atmosphere all season and he was really really good.

Atmosphere in KC will be brutal on SNF and trying to keep pace with Maholmes.

I agree. I meant the 110 degree heat.

It was 80 degrees with no humidity. Trust me, I live 25 minutes away and it was a pretty nice day.
