Likely you guys have already read this but Rosen was interviewed by sports illustrated and made several comments. One was how brilliant of a teacher Fitzgerald is. Another one was his self identified inability to read defenses quickly and that has slowed his development. He stated that he has been working very hard trying to move his film room education to on field education. I thought it all sounded promising for Rosen really improving this year. Also sounded like Fitzgerald needs to be a quarterbacks coach

F. Scott Fitzgerald?

Larry Fitzgerald?
 
Start making rapid decisions on the field and commit to football and he is the talent to go a long way. Unfortunately, this is the story on a lot of EX-football players.
 
Quite a turnaround from bragging in front of the camera about how you're the best quarterback in the draft. The real world suffers no fools.

I hope Rosen continues to learn valuable lessons. On and off the field.

Btw, me too
 
I hope he continues to learn but I'm not holding my breath. Some guys never get it.. Look how long it took Tannehill to get even a basic level of pocket awareness, anticipation and nimble feet in the pocket.. And he's still a work in progress. At least with Tannehill you had pretty decent accuracy and a cannon of an arm. The only thing Rosen has going for him is that golden arm, but what good is it if you can't feel the pocket, throw with anticipation and/or accuracy?

These are very difficult issues to overcome, even if you put the work in. Some guys just don't have that split second reaction that separates the superstars from the guys riding pine.

When I see Tua shuffle his feet, move up in the pocket, throw the ball with anticipation, look one way then throw another way all while facing pressure, I see the traits Rosen is missing.
 
I didn’t see that but got to have respect for someone that can take personal responsibility. I’m happy with our QB situation.
 


Just saw this. he sounds very different than in the past. It seems as though he's growing as a person (becoming more humble).

Crazy how this is such a thing that people cant wrap their minds around. I've tried preaching this so much to my step kids, mainly the youngest who is never wrong at his job. Hard to get thru to a 17 year old, but honestly this isnt something that hit me at my job til i was about 24-25 and that started an upward trend for me at my company (of course my shortcomings were showing up to work hungover every day and telling everyone i could do the job better drunk and hungover than they could sober...how the **** wasnt i fired)

But it is awesome to see that at least verbally he's admitting to his faults and is expressing how good it is having a mentor instead of acting like he is gods gift to football. Confidence outweighs ****iness by a country mile in terms of getting your team behind you.

I was just talking to my best friend about a week ago in regards to tua. Normally i hate how people are crowned before they've did anything in the pros. Tua has his docu-series coming out, he had the entire youtube series last year, has been blessed as the next great thing. But he seems to be the most humble and happy go lucky kid I've seen in a long time come thru here. Rosen came out and said every team ahead of the cards made a mistake and that pretty much he was still gonna start over Murray all the while having a smug attitude. Kind of like the entire Any Given Sunday scene. "You led, but did anyone follow?" This is how you get people to follow when it is your time. Taking blame for making the OL look bad because of slow decision making as opposed to saying you dont have enough time to throw. You get sacked for taking too much time making a decision in the first instance the OL is more likely to help you up and say "my bad i could've helped that block a little longer, I'll get him next time" the second situation leads to Rosen getting off his ass himself while the OL says to the OL beside him "**** wasnt my fault, he needs to throw the damn ball quicker"

If we want the big push in 2021 it would be great to have Rosen in tip top shape in the event we do lose Tua for any period of time. Sure trade him before the 5th year option if he looks good, but would be nice to have a really quality backup at the QB position
