00:00 >> It's fairly or unfairly compared against guys.
00:06 CJ is great, it's seeing the field.
00:09 Where's Kyle in that specific area?
00:13 And he did look more poised, I thought, in the ball.
00:15 >> Yeah, I agree with you.
00:17 It is hard to compare to other quarterbacks, but
00:20 the more you play, the better you see it.
00:23 And I remember the first game against Minnesota,
00:27 CJ struggled in the first half, calmed down in the second half.
00:31 And then it's really good things in New York, and
00:34 threw a couple balls in the coverage in that game.
00:39 But there was enough in that game, so we might have something here.
00:43 We lost the game, and people were coming at him hard.
00:45 He could have performed better,
00:47 because we had to do a good job around the ball there.
00:50 And then you can start to see it develop over time.
00:54 It was a tough stretch in there.
00:56 But you think about Dwayne, he's kind of felt like he saw it.
00:59 And Justin was a little bit different.
01:03 It took him until almost the last Michigan State game before he really got him.
01:08 But he was so athletic, he could make his feet.
01:11 So I guess I go through those guys, if you ask about his predecessors.
01:15 I don't think we'll need to get into that until we get a few more games in.
01:18 The same thing with Kevin, because you're seeing it for the first,
01:22 I remember being a quarterback.
01:24 You put the film on, what did I see?
01:27 And then the next time you do it, you're like, okay.
01:31 And then sometimes you come out of games,
01:32 you're like, I don't even know what just happened in that game.
01:33 I just found the flow of the game, I found the rhythm.
01:37 That's something we talked to our quarters about, find the speed.
01:40 If you're too slow, not good.
01:42 If you're too fast, not good.
01:44 And that's part of playing this game.
01:47 Both guys into a rhythm early on, sort of did that.
01:51 I'm working in.
