I don't know how Bennett is going to turn out. But I'm convinced it's partly his size, partly the scheme....or more succinctly, how he's picking up the scheme. They pointed out on two of those interceptions, it was the right guy but it needed to be "dropped" into his hands instead of zinged there. They also pointed out he was "late over the middle". Those should all be correctable. He's actually still a rookie despite having pre-season time last year. FWIW, Drew Brees didn't exactly set the world on fire as a young NFL QB. His first full season (year 2) he had 17 TD and 16 INT in 16 GP. His second year as a starter he had 15 INT and 11 TDs in 11 games. It wasn't until his 4th year (third season as a starter) that he showed well 27 TD 7 INT 15 GP. Shit happens and it ain't easy being a good NFL QB. Particularly right away and also being vertically challenged.
