Week 3 Update
Luck had his most impressive showing so far despite his defeat to the Jags. RG3 had to chase the game after it had a hard time in the first half he still looks like the franchise future. Tannehill still looked limited to me he could punish the Jets once they lost Revis he looks average. Wilson may have threw the very debatable winning hail mary, but he still looks limited he moves well but his passing looks suspect their is a strong case of Flynn getting a game. Weeden continued to have issues failing to complete a large number of passes.
Previous The season enters week 3 and their has been a record for the NFL with rookie quarter backs starting from week 1 in the league this season 5 in all, in week one they went 1-4.
Andrew Luck
The stanford product is having a though introduction to the NFL been part of the rebuilding project currently in progress at the Colts who aim to rebuild their franchise about the most talked about player over the last 2 years in the college football, ultra reliable with pretty an all round game with little or no downside to him he is rightfully talked up as the next peyton manning, i personally think he can be better he is alot more mobile than he is given credit for making him elusive in the pocket.
Luck recovered from a week 1 defeat to settle at 1-1 with the win over vikings to ensure a better rookie start than the man he replaced. This has left him with 3 TD's, 3 Int, 533yds. He will want keep up his yardage but cut out his intercepts he has shown calm thou coming back from a intercept to lead a drive down field he has such pose. Week 3 should give an excellent test when he faces the Jaguars who are a real mixed bag.
Here are some of the excellent plays he made during his time at Stanford
Robert Griffen III
RG3 raised the Baylor programme last year with a great final year and it earned him the Heisman trophy too. He is a really mobile quarterback more elegant and quick than Newton but with a bigger more accurate arm from the off. He works hard and the redskins have made a huge effort to ease him in adjusting their play book for alot of plays he worked out during his time at Baylor.
He won a good game week 1 the only rookie quarterback to do so, but in week 2 he came up against a hungry Rams side in a game that either side could have taken, he has proven the most effective of the rookies from the 2 games so far (3TDs. 1Int, 526yds). He faces a test against the Bengals at home in week 3 a game they will want bounce back and win, RG3 will want record as good if not better numbers against an average Bengals defense.
Action from his debut NFL game:
Ryan Tannehill
A product of texas A&M he looked an excellent college quarter back but had a bit to prover that he would deliver in the pro ranks. Despite this a good camp gave him the starting spot over Henne. At 6foot 4 he is a big guy but he sees alot of his passes over the line getting tipped despite his size this is due to his low throwing action which worries some experts. He lost in week 1 but faced one of the moss impressive teams in the league, he looked much improved in the win over oakland, althou a home crowd will have helped him greatly.
His stats so far this season (1TD, 3INT, 419yds) improved greatly from the improved running game in week 2 were he was without an intercept and passed for his first td, he looked much better suited to balancing the pass with the rush. The improvement was great in week 2, but in week he faces Revis and the jets who will test him thru air so the rush may be leaned on again.
His week 1 showing v texans
Brandon Weeden
The Browns are also a team looking to build and try form some sort of play off team, they dropped previous draft pick McCoy and have now put their faith in Weeden to improve the teams fortunes. Weeden has what can only be called a rotten opening game, in fact the worst for a rookie qb on debut in history. The Oklahoma State product managed just 12 completed passes and 118yds and was picked off 4 times a rotten night for the newbie.
He recovered in week 2 and current rate of improvement will have him with hall of game numbers by the end of the season (2TD,4INT, 440yds) They did go 0-2 but they kept the bengals close and their defence is doing good work if Weeden can help the offense put points on board.
Some of the play that urged the Browns to select Weeden:
Russell Wilson
The Seahawks signed up Matt Flynn off his two games filling in for Rodgers, they paid him the money but after training camp, it was decided that Wilson the rookie was the preferred option to lead the side on the opening day of the season. Another mobile quarterback with a great arm who had a chance to enter MLB but opted to go the way of the NFL.
Week 1 was mixed, he had a chance to win them the game but while he did some things right his execution when given so many chances at the death let him down when the team needed him most. Week 2 saw improved numbers as they got out early against the cowboys (2TDs, 1INT, 304yds) his numbers are nothing much and the man hes keeping out of the side is probably the best of the back ups for these rookies. Everything improved in week 2, they host the Packers in week 3 who are weak against the pass, a game of 200yds or less might push flynn into the team.
The reason he was picked excellent pre season form:
