Let's have your observations of Locker's first career start

  • Dan Cotton

  • I thought he looked okay in his career start except for a couple of bad throws. Nate didn't help him with his drops.

  • Given the fact that we have ZERO running game against good defenses,I think Jake did a decent job.He is going to make new mistakes every game and hopefully he learns from them.Let him continue to go thru his pre-snap reads,read defenses ,and go thru his progressions. He will improve and become more comfortable with every game . It is going to be a long year if we can't run the ball effective enough to make defenses respect the run game.We do have some weapons and speed on offense if they are used in a creative manner.Our defense is going to have to create some chemistry and play better overall if we are to sniff the playoffs.Its only game 1 and it was aganist N.E.. It is a good measuring stick .Eveything needs to improve top to bottom.

  • He made some mistakes, but that is to be expected. He needs more time back there, he shouldn't have to do a seven stop drop to be able to get a pass off.The O-Line has got to step up. He's got some weapons though, he has a nice chemistry with Cook and when Kenny gets back and 100%, the passing offense has real potential.

    That was a nice tackle. But Locker tackling a guy is like a kicker making a tackle, "C'mon man" to the other 10 players on the field.

    Couldn't agree with you more, missknowitall.

  • He looked ok. The team as a whole didn't look to good but it could have just been the patriots are just a top notch team this year.

  • Good:
    -Did a good job going through progressions
    -Was fiery and displayed passion/spirit. That can inspire a team
    -Was much better with the crossing route accuracy than he has been
    -Extended plays and/or kept drives going with his athleticism
    -Made decent throws in not so great situations.....he was off balance with a guy hanging on his leg during one TD pass
    -Made good decisions.....the interception was one of the few mistakes

    Bad:
    -Needs to learn when to throw with touch and when to rifle it
    -I would rather him miss receivers low than high
    -Better to overshoot long on deep balls than throw short

    Overall the future is so bright I gotta wear shades.
