I can see the resemblance, there hasn't been this much of a vertical presence in a while. It looks like Pat is being taught to read from high-to-low with there being different levels tested in each passing play and he's making the correct choice more often than not.
Like you mentioned he's become very active in pre-snap adjustments, I'd say he's doing it at the same frequency as Alex did (which has always been considered one of his biggest strengths) and it's only his 3rd start. I have no clue what his ceiling is at this point.
Like I know people say shit like "limitless potential", but seriously the kid has 10 TDs in 2 games against two of our most vital opponents. Especially with him being in this offense, the O/U for his TD total has to be like 46 right? Is that too cautious? His TD% is currently 18.2% which is more than twice Carson Wentz's last year (7.5%) when he was coasting to a MVP. I know, sample size and all that but **** that's wild.
