John Fourcade looked like a world beater cleaning up in the last minutes of the fourth quarter in PreSeason; then reality hit against the ones...

Exactly. Lets not forget that one of his Ints hit the receiver in the hands and another was basically a hail mary. He did not look comfortable at all though.

True Dat! He still looks good with his delivery. It needs some work and I hope he gets more playing time than Savage to work on his accuracy and find out if it was just nerves.

Obviously he could have run a lot more but he stayed in the pocket and delivered the ball like Payton told him to so we could get better film on him. When he did run he was successful and picked up a first down and more.

The fumbles can be fixed with the coach grilling him and working on the hand off and QB keeper. How large are this kids hands anyway?

I decided to look this up and I believe Taysom Hill might just have the smallest hands of any QB in the league at 8 3/4”. This would probably help explain the fumbling.

If he doesn't make it in the NFL he'd be a good candidate for President.
