West has been good, but he doesn't have Adams's talent (especially in terms of mobility).
He's been a little bit better than just "good." We'll see how the rest of the season goes, but right now he's posting Payton Award winning numbers. Notice a trend here?
"West is No. 1 in the FCS in passing yards per game (385.8), passing efficiency (201.6) and passing yards per attempt (11.5) and ranks toward the top in a number of other categories. The strong-armed signal-caller has completed 72.4 percent of his passes (97 of 134) and thrown for 15 touchdowns with only three interceptions for the seventh-ranked Eagles (2-2)."
He obviously doesn't have Adams' mobility; they're different QB's. West is a better pocket passer and has a stronger arm. But as I said before the season started, EWU doesn't need VA for it's offense to score a lot of points. As long as Baldwin is there, the program will continue to produce outstanding QB's. It's what he does.
