Geno HAS to be not just a good, but a masterful pocket passer. I never said he can't do that. Don't put words in my mouth. I've praised his football iq and work ethic. I've said it is a risk. And when I say bust potential, I am basing that on the idea that anything short of a franchise qb is a bust. Solid starter to me, is a bust.

Well, I guess RG3 has "major bust potential" too because of risk of injury, then.

amirite?

No. I don't know how that even applies. And rgIII walked into the nfl with a much better pocket passing skill set than geno anyway.
