The mental gymnastics made for Bagent are wild to me. I think he played pretty bad last night. Put the ball in danger way too many times, showed lack of arm talent as we all feared, and he did it against the worst passing defense in football.
The Chargers went into that game giving up 300+ yards passing and a rating of 105.6 on average.
I think people may have overreacted a little bit from that 162 yards passing performance. Bagent is a really interesting developmental prospect. And we don’t get many of those here. Maybe in a year or two he’ll take a step up. But anyone who thinks he’s the guy right now is sippin on some good stuff.
But he didn’t. It’s not mental gymnastics at all. They were playing from, so you take bigger risks to make up the difference - you put the ball in danger. That’s football 101. Given the danger he was asked to put the ball in, he did very well all things considered.
Yeah, he has the arm talent of a rookie.
We can say he played average. But you cant say he played bad. That’s just factually incorrect.
