Austin Davis- Real? Mirage?

DanMetroMan : 10/23/2014 10:36 am
Full admit I don't watch much college football so I don't know a ton about this guy but he's been really impressive for the Rams so far and Favre yesterday said he thought he was going to be a big time player (full disclosure is Favre apparently worked out with him previously). What do you guys think? Flash in the pan? Or the goods?
90% chance flash in the pan

10% chance real deal. Just like with every other guy that has a good few games.

You could be right; odds are in your favor.
But in 2 pre-season games, and the 2 in-season games I saw, he has a nice OL in front of him, so he looks comfortable and confident back there, and, he can run some(Fisher must like that option but prefers pocket guys).
If AD doesnt come back down to earth with his play, Bradford is #2 at best, or gone.
of course

my post was meant to say that the odds are stacked against him and the sample size is too small. Guys like Counsins have had good stretches then tanked, you see it all the time.

I like Davis and will be rooting for him, but there just isn't enough to go off of just yet. At 2-4 its house money; i'd like to see how he does when he starts taking shots from the media and taking heat in general after a bad game or two.
It's far

too early to say. I like what I see from him but he needs more than a few games for me to say what he is or isn't. He's off to a good start, though.
i thought he looked a little

panicky late in the last game, and that's when you want a guy to stand out. still, it's too early to say one way or the other...
