I am operating with the belief that Kessler can be a nice career backup. Not an indictment on him, I just don't think he'll advance enough physically to be much more.
Kessler is not the long term starter on a playoff or championship caliber team. I think long term backup is best case for Kessler.
I am just curious as to your positions on Goff, who with the same amount of passes, is having a worse year than Kessler. If you've "seen enough" to write off Kessler as a career backup, I suppose that you've seen enough of Goff too?
Or does Goff's stronger arm give him more potential?
Does Kessler has better weapons? A better O-line?
Maybe, since you've watched more of Kessler, you can tell he sucks, but you don't want to grade Goff because you haven't seen all of his tape.
OR, maybe it's time to concede that the book isn't closed on either of them, and that because of this, we should play Kessler next year to figure it out.
My lean on Kessler is that he likely isn't the answer. But the stats don't suck, his work ethic doesn't suck, and I think it's worth giving him an off-season to hopefully strengthen his arm and have Hue give him a program that helps slow the game down.
