Well, that and the fact he doesn't have an NFL arm....

and never has. His arm was below average for Power 5 college. I'm certainly rooting for Book, but I don't see how he has the physical tools to succeed in the NFL. Perhaps Peyton sees him as a younger Drew Brees, but he has never had the arm, accuracy, or quick release Brees has.
