Keep in mind the guy never had any time with the one's or any game experience whatsoever. Not to mention limited training camp. The guy was 3rd on the depth chart.
Let's just see. If he sucks, then I'll be the first one to admit it.

That's because of Yates. I still see a deep man, a middle man, and a short man on every bootleg. Yates just isn't pushing it downfield. That is not a playcalling issue. That is a QBing issue.
And I have squarely in my mind the fact that he is not ready for this. That is the whole problem. He does a few things well and is just not ready in many others. Now that those few things he does well are on tape he is looking worse each week. That is the NFL. Teams look to take away what you do best. A Matt Schaub led offense had every defender reacting and not sure what they wanted to take away first. Every safety and LB took false steps a dozen plus times a game because they could not make up their mind what they were most afraid of. He knew where everyone on the field was and got through the progressions and attacked enough different places that the defense was on its heels.
Yates is clearly not that guy and hasn't had a chance to become that guy. What I don't get is how you take Yates' average physical tools, bad accuracy, and totally lacking preparation (not his fault) and add them up to him being better than Schaub at some point in the unnamed future. There is nothing to indicate that.
As for you being the first to admit it if he stinks, I would disagree. He stinks right now (and has for the vast majority of 4 and a half games) and you don't want to admit it.
