    Yes. They have good games. Not "he hasn't been horrible" games.

    If you're truly excited about 1/4 of a QBs production coming from one throw against a defense without five starters and a very average pass rush, then so be it. If you're excited about scoring seven points against a defense with backups playing out of position in the secondary, then so be it.

    I'm not a believer.

    What do you expect from a guy in his 3rd start? 500 yards, 5 tds, no interceptions and a promise of a Superbowl title? I'm not "excited" or even sold that Mett is a starting qb option.

    Realistically, yes, he "hasnt played horrible" is a good thing from a rookie 6th rounder in his first few starts.

    Analytic skills not your strong point? Statistically Mett looks terrific for a rookie QB. He needs to have a pick free game but based on what we have seen i think he is the best rookie QB.

    He sure can push the ball down the field a major issue for many young QBs and he has no accuracy issues either. So far we could not ask for more.

    Many young QBs have stats like Dereck Carr. Carr has completed 60% of his passes with 13 TDs and 9 ints. Very respectable for a rookie playing on a crap team but look at his yards per attempt, below 6 ypa. That's a concern and for many young QBs it does not automatically improve.

    It's not an arm strength issue a lot of QBs with big strong arms had the same problem.Carr has a great arm.

    Mett is averaging 8 yards per attempt with average WRs. That is a talent that is hard to teach. The potential is much better for a QB like that in my opinion.

    Mett is looking good enough right now to skip any looks at Qbs in the draft. I'd like to get a big bodied receiver as a target though..
