He got swole-up

I hope it doesn’t affect his throwing motion.

*I* ran over George Tirebiter.

Don't forget overconfidence

I hope he doesn’t get all cocky and forget to slide either when running outside of the pocket (which he seemed to refuse to do all last season)

He can take on anyone!

except when he forgets his mouthpiece…. or… lands funny, or um, takes a nasty hit to the head…

Dang, he's up to 230??

He’s only 6’2" though, pretty stocky. By contrast, Carson Palmer is I think 230, but he’s 6’5"

when i've seen him on campus

he looks like a linebacker. And that was during this past season. It’s kind of funny to see him standing next to Kevin Craft and see the radical difference in body types.

Regardless, I’m not all that worried about his speed. As Bruins102 said, I’m more concerned about his throwing and if he can improve on that.

The good news

the extra bulk should make him more durable when he forgets to slide

I have an idea

and it wouldn’t even be that expensive.

Whenever our QBs are training how to roll out and run with the rock, maybe make KP wear a shock collar every time he dives head first. Somehow that instinct he had to drive his head into the opponent’s helmet needs to be reversed.
I think the guy’s great, but he needs to stop going head first (for the fans, for the coaches, for the team, and most of all for his own health)!

Geezer in training.
