After reading this Athletic analysis, I watched BTN’s condensed version of last year’s MSU Indiana game. I understand one game does not make a career, but if Chiles can play at 80% of the level he did in that game, his QB rating will be higher than 70th by season’s end. He has the tools to be very good.

I am hesitant to get too excited about player film, but there are things to like here v Stone* last year (or his tape v Oklahoma State).

- they are playing against the national champions. Comparison game would be NU v Oregon
- he doesn't get rattled. Lots of pressure, step out of it or take the sack. No fumbles or INTs. -Generally good decisions, even the grounding was a wash v a sack.
- good check downs
- quick release
- stronger arm
-obviously better legs.

*obligatory Stone appreciation comment. He was a warrior. If only he'd been able to aim his spear better
