didn't provide him an effective enough offensive line in pass protection. left him constantly under pressure and scrambling.

numerous games like this.

OK, that’s been very apparent, even to us fans. Do you think the pros couldn’t see it too?

if anything they look at the numbers while under duress. if the offensive line was that bad,
how'd he put up those numbers?

Spent his senior season running for his life due to poor oline play.

Feels like had the staff managed the line better he would've had a better opportunity to avoid the game manager tag that landed him as a UDFA.

I feel that's unfair. Being a "game manager" is a QB who basically just doesn't get in the way.

Altmyer went and won more games than any QB in the clutch in the past two years.

I feel teams made a mistake not drafting him, and it's a bummer. We'll see how it turns out. I have a feeling it will be good.
