They want him to set up in the pocket, and he works it in practice, but reverts during the games.
#2 - Well, not all of them do it, but I certainly agree that this does not make him unique. But, this was a critique, and you can't leave that out, even if it is a common flaw against young qb's.
#3 - He made some good plays in the second half, but he made even more slow reads. You can't mistake good plays as an excuse for poor ones. My buddy also confirmed this point. The thing you love is that he does have the potential to make some nice plays. He just doesn't have the confidence to deliver the ball on time, every time. That is his toughest challenge I think.

There is an article out today (i'll try to find it) that AS's sais the exact same thing. He drops back to far. There are other flaws that will have to be worked out in the offseason. They want to start w/ his feet and work their way up.
