Having had a couple of days to stew on the game Sunday Iv really come down to two trails of thought regards Heinicke
The first one is short term, imo the reason he’s accumulated so much support is that he’s the antidote to Alex Smith, Dwayne Haskins etc, he’s got a great attitude, he’s willing to put his body on the line for the franchise and he shows a personality that’s relatable for fans. That’s why he should be our QB for the rest of the season he's earned it
The second trail of thought is more long term and I’m talking the end of this season and beyond, he’s just not the answer from a talent standpoint, he doesn’t have the arm, he does hold the ball too long, he’s been extremely lucky on several occasions with dropped interceptions, his pass completion % over the 4 games prior to Dallas looks great but in reality not many shots taken and as much as it can be popular to criticise him Scott Turner has really done a brilliant job of covering Taylor’s shortcomings.
Ron has a huge decision to make at the end of this season and imo the only way we move up from finishing around 500 every year is to get really aggressive for a QB this off season coming, draft looks bereft of talent so FA it’ll have to be, if not the franchise stays irrelevant again for at least another year
