He's going to have to learn to play from the pocket. Pure ignorance to to think he can't learn. I don't know what to say about that last comment. Ridiculous. He's a rookie. Made some really good reads but missed on those throws. His ceiling is exponentially higher than Levis.He can't play from the pocket. He's as bad if not worse than Levis at reading the field.
He never learned in College.He's going to have to learn to play from the pocket. Pure ignorance to to think he can't learn. I don't know what to say about that last comment. Ridiculous.

I would've had to have been old enough to watch and understand. I was still sitting in my diapers then.So what? He's got the goods to learn. Making absolute statements about what he can't do is silly with a guy with so much upside and a willingness to learn. Perhaps you have forgotten how bad Manning was as a rookie
Callahan threw Levis to the wolves today in his presser. He was specifically hired by the owner and GM to coach Levis up. Things are as dysfunctional as ever in Nashville and won't be too suprised to see things get ugly again by season's end with and erratic franchise owner.
Unfortunately I think that's just who Levis is, an impulsive thrower in the moment, doesn't think just react. I'm really not sure what he was trying to do in that pick 6. I think he just decided he had to do something. And that's fine if your down trying to win the game......go down swinging. I wouldn't even be that upset at him. But his situational awareness and instincts in the pocket are piss poor right now.Even more disheartening about Levis, Callahan specifically talked to him before the pick 6 to tell him the defense can win the game and to not force anything and take the sack.
From what I’ve seen of Levis in college and his short NFL career, is that he has the physical talent but needs to play smarter.Levis gave up on the play, there was a throw or two to be made but he had already decided to run.
He doesn't extend plays, he panics.
I'm just not seeing good traits out of him, but the o line is really struggling too.
