Heinicke has been able to move the offense in each game. I don't really worry about the arm strength part. As for injuries, at this point our qbs all are injury prone. Multiple seasons with 3+ qbs , that is just crazy.

My fear is that defenses will figure him out, but truthfully I don't know if he has figured himself out yet.

TH to me is another Colt McCoy. Sure you can win some games with him, but the biggest factor is health. He's got to stay in the lineup.

He seems more than Colt to me.

RF had not generated much in way of sustained drives. TH got a FG before half, a TD with the first drive of the second half, got us to the 22 before Scherff's penalty, and then had AG fumble it. Those were good drives against a good defense. He did the same kind of thing against Tampa's defense. Both games our vaunted defense let the team down.
The only way we get to see about his health is putting him in and letting him play.

Actually I'll take back the Colt comparison since it's really not fair. TH will be making his 2nd regular season start on Thurs and in the grand scheme of things is still very unproven. He doesn't even have a resume worth comparing to anyone yet. He's a 28 year old rookie in terms of playing experience. Given our luck this should go great lol

I agree we have no track record that says TH is the next great find. I doubt he is. BUT his play in limited games seems to warrant giving him a shot. It can't be worse than last year.

Cooley said TH was running basically the same 2-3 routes .. crosses and digs. Running a triangle chart. he said its fine but its limited.

2021 offense = 2020 offense. Mostly everything is within 15 yards of LOS with TH ocassionally tossing a contested long ball.

Its identical, except in 2020 I thought our O line played above their weight class and we might not get that again this year.

Coaches on both sides of the ball need to earn their paychecks.
