I like that he's getting his shot so that we know a little bit about what we got going forward. But I sure wish it was not in this situation. Rookies are going to rook. At least we are not having to start Ty Montgomery at QB.
Actually, the situation ain’t as bad as it looks. My BIGGEST concern right now ain’t Ian, but who’s starting at RT. If we get dat addressed, I think we’re still ok.
Despite the injuries n COVID on O, IMO, it’s STILL a great opportunity for Ian! We’re at home. The D is ballin! He’ll have both AK n MI in the run game, in pass pro, n as receivers on quick routes to counter the Fins pass rush.
Bottom line, if the O can keep down n distance manageable, we’ll b fine. Ian’s gonna win some of those with his legs alone. But the “X” factor is how Ian’s able to extend plays. Before he runs, he’s always got his head up, lookin downfield!
