The only way to truly prepare a young player for success in the NFL is to allow him to learn from his mistakes in games. The speed, tempo and intensity of a pro game cannot be replicated on the practice field, which is why it is imperative for young quarterbacks to get game repetitions as soon as possible, to accelerate their growth as playmakers. That's the approach the Indianapolis Colts (Andrew Luck), Carolina Panthers (Cam Newton), Washington Redskins (Robert Griffin III) and Seattle Seahawks (Russell Wilson) recently took with their young quarterbacks, and it certainly has paid dividends for those squads. Each of those teams has reached the postseason behind the leadership of its young franchise quarterback.
