Steve Young nailed it. Locker needed a "bridge" or some type of simplified offense to transition him into the full playbook. Similar to what happened with VY, RGIII, Kaepernick, Wilson, etc...

I could def see the Titans beating the Jets tonight

More importantly I don't think you can expect Locker to post a real nice stat line against the Jets pressure defense. He needs to move the chains with his legs and convert 3rd downs and make a few big plays. But even more than that he needs to avoid the bone headed throws and mistakes.

Thus far I give the staff an "F" for the handling of Locker

What'd he say?

He talked about both QBs... went through some of the outside reasons they haven't played well (changing coordinators etc..) but ultimately said bad decisions was on them and that Locker's pick 6 last week cost the team the game.

Also chose Karl Klug as his Gruden grinder.

Said it a couple of pages ago. I think they became too in love and started injecting a pass happy thought process before he was ready. The run game, should've been the focus as Locker progresses.

Maybe they should've gone defense, or oline in the draft. Maybe they shoud've brought in a better backup running back. They had too much faith that Locker was going to pass for 4,000 yards with this team.

He's paid to like every QB just like he's paid to make Chucky face every once in awhile. It's one of his gimmicks as his role on MNF... but apart from those gimmicks, he's not that bad.

Gruden is a fluff guy to show the positives of every qb he interviews. He has the players sitting there, so it would be awkward to really give a fair critique.

Yep.

Locker may never be great, but I just have a hard time believing he wouldn't succeed in the shoes of Russell Wilson, RGIII, Cam Newton last year, and Kaepernick. I do fault the coaches for not focusing on building the offense around his strengths and easing him into it.

I agree, but they had no basis for believing that was going to happen.
