Jimmy Garoppolo, QB, Los Angeles Rams

Nice spent some time with Tom house working on the deep ball apparently

Some of those players are spending time with Garoppolo this summer and he plans to get a big group together in Santa Clara before the start of training camp in order to build up a rapport as quickly as possible.
"I'm trying to pick up their mannerisms, what motivates them, all those things," Garoppolo said. "There's a million different things that go into it. It's exciting. This time of year, with only a couple of weeks until training camp, it's grind time.
"Chemistry comes with experience and practice reps. A guy can be last on the totem pole but if he starts making plays day after day he can move up quickly. That's kind of the nature of the beast when it comes to football. But that's the exciting part of it."

Yup, spot on!

I don't care if there were rumors of Brady vs Garoppolo not being friends...Jimmy definitely learned a thing or two from Tom and that will make him a better QB for us.

Getting together with the guys to build chemistry and learn their body movements is a great way to take that chemistry into training camp and build on it. Hopefully all the skill guys take the opportunity to work with him.

What? I've always heard that Tom, Jimmy and Brissett were close buddies. They even went to the Derby together.

After Jimmy was traded stories came out that Tom was basically hearing footsteps from Jimmy and wanted him gone and that when Jimmy wanted to rehab at TB12 facility they wouldn't open the doors...basically insinuating that it was similar to the Montana/Young, Favre/Rodgers situation.

Don't know what's true but I know they definitely hang out but may not be BFFS.

Difference was that Young was very vocal about it. But yeah pretty much the rivalry was there.

They had a right to be vocal, winners are that way.

I don't care whether Jimmy and Brady were friends either. Montana and Young had a luke warm relationship at best and that worked out pretty good. Having good chemistry with your receivers and line are far more important.
