I'm definitely not making any declarations about Zappe's longterm potential. I simply said we saw much better QB play than we saw all year and magically the offensive line and the injured weapons group looked significantly better.I think the first half last week had a lot to do with the Steelers. Not taking away from the Pats, but the Steelers played a role in the first half success. One TD drive was an 11 yard drive. The second Henry TD was a great, but dangerous throw. That safety was in perfect position to make the INT and whiffed. And TJ Watt suffered a concussion the first play of the game.
You want declare one half of football as proof of anything. Let’s see how things go the rest of the way before we determine anything. Zappe has started four halves of football and was mediocre in three of them.
Hopefully he will play closer to how he played in the first half last week, but that is yet to be determined.
With a great QB and the entire group of weapons we started with on day one of this season, this team would be battling for the AFC East. The offensive line was shaky the first two weeks, but got right in week three when they got everyone back healthy.
I find it odd how people here argue vehemently and often how important the QB position is in football, but when you point out how Mac has been absolute trash... they argue the opposite... that weapons make the QB.
Certain posters would rather say "BB sucks" than admit with a great QB this would be a good or even great team.
