I think Caleb is super tough, but IMO a big difference between Jayden and Caleb is that Jayden is willing to stand in the pocket and take a hit right when he's throwing. A lot of his big plays come from him holding the ball until the last second, taking a hit, and completing a downfield throw. When Caleb sees pressure, his first instinct is to run away.
Agreed. That is the one thing about Caleb that has won me over - his toughness. I definitely give him big credit for that. But yes, also agreed, he is not poised in the pocket - rabbit feet, skittish with his throws, and very inaccurate under pressure. Jayden is so calm under the rush that he makes it seem like he is playing a different game… on a different level altogether. Like he is back there drinking a cup of coffee when all hell is busting loose around him.

Also with Caleb, he accumulates a bunch of empty stats. The key with all of this is what does the final scoreboard say.

True, he just does it for three Qts before then

Yeah that is not how choking works. It typically denotes someone that sucks in crunch time like Fields. Caleb is a slow starter but been pretty good in crunch time. I know that hurts for you to admit as a Fields stan but it is what it is.

If I had to pick a QB for the next game, it'd be Daniels.

But I'm also not quick to rush to all these judgements like those here on this board about who is a "bust" and who is a "HOFer" already.

How badly do we lose next game and does it matter if we keep the streak alive?
IDK but I can guarantee you it won't be as devastating as a loss as your gunslinging boy Rex Grossman delivered at the end of your favorite year 2006.

Nice so all we got to hope is we aren’t down too many scores for Caleb to get his act together for the 4th QT, seems to be working so far

If only Caleb was as accurate as you are inaccurate about my favorite QB

He threw an interception and for some reason their team didn’t fall apart. It’s like constantly being cautious doesn’t help

The int wasn't even his fault either. Bijon basically pitched the ball to the defender and instead of fumble they said he didn't complete the catch.

Nope as Caleb is unlikely to choke in the 4th like Fields was prone to do.
You're right. Caleb just chokes away the entire 1st half, so he can compile impressive garbage time stats in the second half.

Brilliant!!
