There's nothing wrong with preferring it, but it's certainly can't be the ONLY thing he uses.
It will take time, but he will officially be "ready" when he's equally comfortable in both spots-- from the pocket and on the run.

I agree.
He looked good in the pocket a few times last night, mainly with the strike to Hill and Chesson.
