Skipper played a very nice game. I'll take 15/24 for 2 nice TD's through the air and one on the ground when our ground game is rolling. He really should have been 17 of 22 or 23 as well a couple of those plays were other guys (the line or the receivers) letting him down . The big thing for Skipper needs to be knowing when and how to go down. He takes these really aggressive hits and it led to a fumble today, sometime it's going to lead to another concussion or an injury. He had a pretty bad one where a guy got him directly on the helmet today on the end of one of his runs. A couple more where he got blasted out of bounds. Kid's a-buck-eighty-five or so and he think's he's Ben Rothlisberger.

Early in his career Paul Smith would make me wince on nearly every (rare) run. Skipper looked better in the second half, his throws had more zip and timing, letting our receivers turn after making catches and pick up yac.
