Originally posted by TheXFactor:Loved his confidence in this game, even though it was against the worst team in the NFL. Still feels good to blowout the Raiders though.
One thing I noticed about Nick is he never took a real shot downfield, everything was 5-10 yard throws, which is fine when it's his first start.
Also he got blitzed I think 1 time the whole game, where CJ faced a blitz probably 9-10 times a game.
Still proud for BDN! I hope he starts against big blue!
Totally. Enjoy the fun of burying the Raiders but...
...Kyle did Mullens right. 3 step drops all night (compared to CJB and his 7 step drops). I think there was one time it was a 7 step drop and he got hit (near fumble). And you can have that game plan against this front 7 and their 31st ranked secondary.

But there is a lot to like about his poise, how he handled the huddle and play calling, his infectious energy, footwork, progressions, etc. You can build on that.
And now he faces the 2nd worst team and Kyle has extra time to gameplan for the Giants.
