I didn't really take issue with the national media and general public's takes heading into this year, because all that they really knew of Josh was that he was wildly inaccurate and underwhelming (statistically) in college, that his completion percentage was still bad as a pro, and that he freaked out and nearly singlehandedly tried to choke away last year's playoff game.
On the other hand, we had the opportunity to watch all of his games closely and could see a fairly clear progression in his play from his first handful of games to the end of his first season, and a similar progression in year two. I knew he was a QB we could win with by the end of 2018.
