Seahawks vs. Chiefs, Winners an Losers: Stock up for Milroe, stock down for Myers

Forget the scoreline and let's focus on the overarching story. This was an important showcase night for Jalen Milroe as a full-game starter, as well as looking at the roster bubble players and whether they could make one last impression before Sunday's cut-down day.

And by "that" I mean a series of quality plays with his arm that ward off any more calls that he should be waived. The first half was the best Milroe has looked in either preseason, making decisive, accurate, and on-time throws to Cody White, Montorie Foster, Nick Kallerup, and Elijah Arroyo. He even lost some yards and completions because Julian Hicks couldn't handle the ball. It helped that (outside of one particular person) the offensive line was rarely troubled by KC's pass rush, so Milroe had time to go through his progressions before making a decision to throw or run. His statline of 16/26 for 223 yards and a touchdown (to go with 20 yards rushing) actually is a bit unkind to his overall performance.

This is the first time Milroe has looked demonstrably better than third and fourth-string opposition, which is what you want to see as a clear sign of improvement. The game seemed to slow down for him on Friday and the end result was a performance more in line with what his biggest supporters hoped he would look like. There's very little to critique! If you were ready to send him to the waiver wire after the Tennessee Titans game then maybe tonight was a step back in the right direction.
