was like night and day. Those who criticize Retzlaff for throwing interceptions may want to know that Young threw 18 interceptions his junior year along with 18 touchdowns. He completed 62 percent of his passes. The next year he threw 33 TDs with 10 interceptions and had a completion percentage of 71%. His improvement from one year to the next was marked.

I saw lots of improvement with Retzlaff this year over last year. If he continues to make improvement like Young did, he could turn out to be exceptional. I get why some fans complain about him, but I am an optimist because of the improvement he made last year and will hopefully make again this year.
