Over the course of the season, Absolute Unit has gotten at least a little better at this football thing. For being a rookie quarterback he has performed about at expectations. The Yellowknife Wraith offense was never meant or designed to run through him, so as long as he was passable every game they at least had a chance to pull out a victory. While the individual stats for Absolute Unit are less than compelling, given that he has one of the lowest yardages and quarterback ratings in the league, he has managed to keep turnovers relatively under control and has a positive touchdown to interception ratio. And really, that is all you can ask from a rookie quarterback that is currently playing with a number of handicaps, mostly being that he's trying to lose weight from playing at defensive tackle. The good news is that next season should be a major step forward for Unit, who will be finally slimmed down and playing at the level a championship team would expect.
