There is no question that Marcus is a solid talent that can play quarterback in the NFL, but our concern rests with taking the next step with his progression. Going back to his 2016 season, we truly felt as though that would be his floor moving forward and we would continue to see him raise the bar for his overall play. While Marcus did officially miss two games to injury, he surely was playing hurt in many more. With durability an obvious concern, Mariota placed career lows in nearly every passing category increasing the level of anxiety for his future development. While we seem to place many negatives on his overall game, we must give reasonable thought to the fact that Mariota again will have a new offensive coordinator for the fourth time in his short career. Seeing so much change over for offensive systems is never a sound stepping stone for increasing ones productivity and consistency.
