The thing that's impressed me most about Stidham is that he seems to have very good pocket awareness. He made a lot of subtle little steps this way and that way to allow his line to deflect the rush and buy him extra bits of time while he went through his reads downfield. It's easy to tell which quarterbacks don't have that skillset, those are the ones who end up on their butt out there a lot (Jacoby Brissett, for example, was not good at this). Stidham's movements in the pocket were very decisive and efficient, especially for a rookie.
We have a master of pocket awareness for a QB1 so this is very easy to overlook, but coming from a rookie, I was amazed with just how proficient Stidham is at this particular art form. Shows that he's got a good hdea on his shoulders at least, once that head is filled with a bit more NFL knowledge, we'll see, I think we all might be pleasantly surprised
