This season has certainly been more lows than highs and I know he hasn’t been perfect, but we should all be thankful that we got Will Levis to Nashville and that it’s looking like he’ll be our guy for years to come. His stats haven’t been elite and he’s made his mistakes/has a lot to work on, but there’s so much potential with the kid. Some of his throws, the touch he puts on balls when it’s needed, and the strong presence in the pocket isn’t normal for a 24 year old rookie. There is a lot of room for him to grow in addition to the skill set and intangibles he already is showing. This may be a down year but if Will can stay healthy it might be a blessing in disguise that he has this season to get his feet wet and adjust to the NFL without so much pressure to win right away, although he’s shown he can be a guy that will know how to win games as his career progresses. As a Vol fan, I wasn’t too happy when we called his name at the draft but I’m so glad he’s been proving me wrong. Let’s see what the rest of this season holds and no matter what happens we can all be excited for the future of what Levis can be for the Titans.
I wouldn’t say the Falcons are one of the worst teams in the league. They have a winning record, top 10 defense, and will probably win their division. They are actually a pretty good team with a below average QB. What everyone has seen with Levis and is excited about are they physical traits that can’t be taught or coached. He has crazy arm talent, legitimately better than most QBs, and his poise, intelligence, and leadership have been impressive. Of course he hasn’t been flawless but some of those things that we have seen, I think, are flashes of a QB who can elevate a team.
