1. An away game against a good defensive front to start.
2. They play some very good teams in the first 8, so if he/they start poorly the haters will start the bust talk.
3. A couple of bad games against those first good teams won’t be good for his psyche.
4. He hasn’t seen anything close to nfl defenses, so better to watch and learn.
My preference is they take the mahomes approach, let him start at the end of the season if they are out of contention.
These are in no no particular order. Again, unless it’s no contest, which I doubt will happen.
