Besides the fact that we expected him to be a leader and captain of the Team, he has regressed. This regression does more than just effects his status, it also effects the back up QBs reps and development. Kelly will keep Book in games now to work out the kinks and become comfortable where as truth be told he should have already secured this in Spring and Summer practice. This is where the knock on Kelly of developing QBs is warranted.
First priority is to win games week in and week out but getting your second string QB meaningful reps in game time situations will be very important especially if Book keeps leaving the pocket. I will admit I am a Phil fan and I think he has championship caliber football talent but book is the man now so we ride with what got us to the dance last year. I just don’t know why Kelly can’t do both.
