People have said that he looks poised out there but I haven't seen that. He looks hesitant, confused and out of his depth to me.

Plus, putting him in there with the current state of the left side of the OL will get him killed.

This argument isn't really much of an argument. Kyler Murray had one year college starting experience but no one brings this up. Lamar Jackson and Jameis Winston started for 3 and 2 years and there are still questions about them. If the guy can play the guy can play. Like Matty said, having Keenum out there really does absolutely nothing as we aren't expected to compete anyway so a career journeyman isn't really gonna help his growth.

Also, the argument about Mahomes sitting isn't valid as Mahomes would have balled out with Hill, Hunt, Kelce, and Watkins regardless if he started year 1 or year 2.

He has looked anything but hesitant out there, even on his first int against the Browns he made the right read just under threw the ball and has had 3 near TDs, yes being close only works in horsehoes and hand grenades but to say he looks out of his depth is just downright false.
