The future Hall of Famer dropped back to pass 42 times in the season opener and went 40-for-24 with 221 yards, a touchdown and two sacks. He did distribute the ball well, but his 5.5 yards per attempt shows that he found most of his success in the short and intermediate areas; he went 0-for-6 on passes of more than 20 yards.
