Looks better than Mertz. Which isn't saying much. But he has faced pressure and is still playing tough, unlike Mertz. And he threw a beautiful TD there. 

He's playing with actual talent on offense lol. Put him on this offense and he looks just as bad. Trust.

But Mertz has more arm talent and can stretch the ball downfield if you give him time.

They're both equally worthless IMO.

One is proving to at least be able to move the ball against a much better defense while also getting sacked 5 times. The other has made one good throw the entire half.

Because ND has started airing it out because they figured out that's how to beat us. 

They both suck. I'm not defending Mertz.

Talent and an actual offense matters. Are we watching the same thing here? Obviously not.

There's no flow to this offense and we are expecting Mertz to hit windows he's rarely given an opportunity to throw into. I mean, he sucks but you can't expect a kid to just pull **** out of a hat when asked. The problem isn't just Mertz and the sooner you people realize that, the better off you'll be. Jack Coan, in this offense, has the same problems. Guaranteed. We literally saw it happen for 2+ years.

I have no love lost for Chryst but Chryst is letting Mertz air it out today and pass it around but Mertz cannot throw in rhythm, panics, is inaccurate, and has no pocket presence.

All 3 things are bad. Mertz sucks. Coan sucks, and the only QB to keep his head above water in this offense is Russell Wilson, so the offense sucks for QB development.

It's not an either or thing.

No he's not lol. He's let him do it twice and he's hit the throws. Everything else has been a result of prior plays. The one play that Mertz ****ed up on was the 3rd and short not getting it out. Everything else is typical result of what we do, not just Graham. We ran the same exact 3rd down pass play to the same dude and ND capitalized. We ran a designed first down play to the FB ffs. Chryst isn't letting Mertz "air it out" at all. It's the same **** lol.

Posted shortly after a play where Mertz missed a wide open WR deep down the sidelines...  😀
