If you wanted, you could go through Petracca or Oliver’s games and point out better options they could have taken.
I think you’re one of the most knowledgeable posters here, but I think it’s rough to single out his decision making in the GF.
He had 7 kicks, 3 of which were goal assists, and a goal off one step from 55. Even if it fell short, a one on one in the goal square is a pretty good result. Only Jackson had more goal assists with 4, Petracca had 2, then multiple players with 1.
Anyway, I agree time will tell if he elevates himself in to a very good player or continues as a solid role player. I personally think if he irons out a couple of things, he’s got some attributes that will give him every chance.
