Yeah I REALLY like his fit and how he plays within this system. Legitimately being a dual threat, footwork looked good for the most part as well. His size and speed for the option is really nice. You're not holding your breath when he keeps it... The other player takes more of the hit than he does. This guy has a real shot next year,if not in 2018.
They should also keep Ponder and get rid of Kap in any way they can like IR, trade, or inactive on game days, etc.
Sus needs to teach Driskell how to fix his sleeves
Arrow's up on this kid. He's improved greatly since his LOLWAT game one performance.

Pretty apparent he's getting accustomed to the speed of the pro game.
they should sit Gabbert for the last game, and plau Driskell with the ones. Then Ponder. And cut kap.

I would not mind this.
He did look much more comfortable last night
#6 to take us to #6!
Time to get Driskel up to speed for the #2 qb to operate Kelly's offense. I have no faith in Kaep right now. Most guys will look improved in practice, play better in games. Kaep gets it in practice. He makes you think he'll be good in games, he's not.

I like this.

It seems like Driskel's been progressively getting more game time. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets some reps with the one's. I think he's the likely backup to Gabbert.

Goood move.

IMO, nothing improves a well coached player like actual game experience.

Hate to say it but unless he plays with a gunslinger mentality with nothing to lose and makes some sweet plays... Get Driskel as the #2 and give Kap the RG3 treatment where he's inactive so he never gets hurt.
