    Pretty reasonable summation from the Ringer.

    They did last year and it was usually productive. Don’t know why it’s not incorporated into the gameplan more

    Mills can throw on the run very well (which is kinda odd). It should be a regular part of the offense.

    Love it! My 2 fantasy QBs are #1 and #2. Note: I do have Davis Mills on my bench.

    Mills is EXACTLY why looking only at stats makes you look like an idiot.

    Looks like Lawrence will be the only decent QB from a lauded class.
    Fields is garbage, Lance and Wilson are hurt and Mac has looked pedestrian so far

    Davis Mills is basically one of those inflated men that waves its arm around...he's just a statue with noodle arms...

    The 2021 rookie class accumulated stats so far.

    Mac Jones, Patriots
    24 TD, 15 INT, 91.4 RTG

    Davis Mills, Texans
    18 TD, 10 INT, 87.6 RTG

    Trey Lance, 49ers
    5 TD, 3 INT, 84.5 RTG

    Trevor Lawrence
    15 TD, 18 INT, 74.5 RTG

    Justin Fields, Bears
    9 TD, 12 INT, 72.8 RTG

    Don't forget, our offensive line was ranked #30 when the season started.

    Most important is the fact that Mills had the highest percentage in the red zone last year. Do you know how many times we've made it to the red zone this year? Twice! Don't forget, he's only started 25 games combined in college AND the NFL. That's really green. He will learn and grow. I believe that

    Oh, stats don't mean **** though, and neither does the opinions of the haters.

    It's only two games.....but my opinion of Mills is starting to shift. His accuracy issues are a real concern and I'm worried it isn't something he manages to improve on. I think his happy feet in the pocket will improve, especially if the OL starts protecting him better, but if he can't consistently make accurate throws to the sidelines then we'll never be able to sustain consistent drives. Obviously he should still get the rest of the season to prove himself, but I'm now leaning more towards him not being the guy long term. I hope he proves me wrong.
