I mean I feel like when Brissett was force to throw it deep he proved this false.

Brissett was getting hounded all day and did a nice job evading the rush and making people miss and making throws under pressure that I don't think Tua would have been able to make. Brissett is very limited in his downfield passing, true, but I think he is the slightly better QB at this point in their careers but I think Tua will surpass him soon.

but if he can't push the ball downfield better to develop a guy who possibly can.

Oh absolutely. I'm not trying to say they should start Brissett over a healthy Tua, just that at this moment in time that I think Brissett is the better QB.

I think Tua probably is with a bit of protection. Behind their line today at least Brissett could move. But nothing else about Brissett was good. 169 yards. 40 attempts. 🤮

Brissett definitely showed the value of his experience.  He was accurate and decisive in getting the ball out when we brought the blitz.  I thought Gesicki was going to murder us again, but he did nothing, then made a couple plays, then disappeared again.
