Field Gulls on Jalen Milroe
From the article
That was bad. I can't really sugarcoat it any other way. Milroe was 6/11 for 52 yards, two terrible picks, and two sacks. My skepticism about Milroe before he was drafted was rooted in him not being good at a lot of regular quarterback things like throwing on time, pocket movement, decision-making, and bad turnovers.
STACKED’s take
Milroe struggles with 6/11, 52 yards, two INTs; lacks fundamental QB skills.
Milroe had a poor performance against Tennessee, going 6/11 for 52 yards, two terrible interceptions, and two sacks. The source notes his best play was probably the over-the-middle throw to Montorie Foster Jr for 24 yards, followed by a deep ball to Cody White that was dropped. The source expresses skepticism about Milroe's ability to do regular quarterback things well, noting that while he is mobile and fast, if he can't do the quarterback stuff well then you can barely run an NFL offense with him. The source's skepticism before he was drafted was rooted in him not being good at throwing on time, pocket movement, decision-making, and bad turnovers. The good news for the Seahawks is that he was a hedge against Sam Darnold not panning out, and Darnold is panning out thus far.
