I think all of the rookie QB's played like newbies in the league for sure. Each will require coaching and development to get them where their franchise expects. I think the most egregious action for a team to overcome is the panic throw. Richardson (most inexperienced) was really the only QB to do that. WK2 should show us a lot. CJ hesitated on some throws and had wondering feet. If he plants his back foot and trusts what he sees instinctually he'll start to fulfill that "ball-placement-specialist" skillset we all know he can deliver. Bring on the Dolphins - good team, good challenge for us.

I watched Young as well. He seemed much less hesitant and much more poised than what I saw from CJ and AR but he looked soooo small. If he can stay healthy, he will probably have the best season, but that's why you're the number one pick. If CJ struggles and doesn't live up to the number 2 selection, that Chicago win is going to haunt Houston for a long time. Even without that, Lovie had no business managing that game if they were not going to keep him. Caserio in my mind made a huge tactical error there. Hopefully it will all turn out.
