However, he is the transition QB. The reason is pretty obvious, he doesn't throw the ball down field, he checks down way to much. I remember one play last night in late in the third quarter, on third down, where Mike Williams had burned his defender in the End Zone, instead Whitehurst checked the ball down to Justin Forsett the ball sailed wide left and the Hawks had to punt it. Granted I was way up in the upper tank and had a fantastic view of the whole field. But when a receiver is that open and the QB has time, like Charlie did, you should be able to notice and throw the ball to the open man. I have a feeling that Pete and Schneider are waiting for the promising round of QB's coming up in the 2012 and 2013 drafts. Maybe even a Matt Barkley and Pete Carrol reunion?
