Gives a little insight into how everything else is the same but the QB is different and just how much a difference that makes.

I have read the exact same thing, to the point where receivers say it isn’t about just getting open, it is about getting open at the correct time and place. All this tells me it is going to take quite some time for this offense to really gel. The defense needs to be good right out of the gate if we are not going to do that ridiculous thing we do every year (losing big for the first third of the year).
