Well, you're entitled to your opinion. You said Book was a "gamer" and that you expected NO to sweep its last two games. He played like a guy with physical limitations playing in his first NFL game. He indeed was under pressure; an important part of quarterbacking is throwing the ball away or checking down instead of taking a sack or throwing an interception. To say that there's no difference between him and Tua at this point in time is just wishful thinking. Book is the fourth choice quarterback on a 7-8 team, Tua is the starter on a team that has won its last seven games.
