I hope Fitz is playing coy and that Hunter Johnson has already been internally named as the starter but I am more concerned after watching the BTN preview today that he continues to play his cards close to the vest internally as well. This hope is not based on Hunter's laurels out of high school but based on his athleticism and potential.
It appears that the knock on Hunter is that he doesn't feel comfortable with the offense. In my opinion, this is corrected by giving him more reps so that he can gain familiarity and confidence and not by prolonging the competition. Per the show today, it as announced that all 5 QBs were sharing reps until 2 weeks ago when Hunter and TJ started to separate and get a larger share of the reps. Of course Hunter doesn't feel comfortable in the offense yet as he has had such limited reps.
Whoever the starting QB is, I hope they get the vast majority of the game week reps and I really hope its Hunter as he gives the team greater upside.
