Keith is loving the Tommy DeVito story, but he says the idea that he is better than Daniel Jones is taking it way too far at this point.
“I think that’s nuts,” Keith said. “I think after four games, or six games he’s played in, four starts, won three of them against the Commanders, Patriots, and Packers, we can’t say this kid is better than Daniel Jones. Daniel Jones was a sixth overall pick.
“We have to look at things like the offensive weapons and offensive line. Daniel Jones didn’t have a healthy Andrew Thomas for but so long this year…then he had the turnstile Evan Neal blocking for him. Evan Neal hasn’t been playing.”
Keith sees a young quarterback playing free after taking over a team that looked dead in the water, and it should be enjoyed. But for the long term of the franchise, it’s not fair to already start wondering if he is better than the quarterback who earned a $160 million contract a season ago.
“I think you have to look at the difference in personnel and the difference in feeling. Pressure versus no pressure,” Keith said. “There’s no pressure on the third-string quarterback.”
