It's interesting to note how consistent Garoppolo was when looking at his passing numbers by down, with the identical stats from 1st to second down and similar yardage on third down. Obviously we're only through one game and Garoppolo still has a lot to learn, but it will be interesting to see if at some point Bill Belichick gives him the opportunity to work with the first team in any of these preseason games should Mallett continue to struggle.
