Which team wants an injury-prone, 27+ million QB who is a statue, a turnover machine while offering next to zero downfield or big play upside, while also unable to read defenses consistently in year 8 in the league ?
HE LEADS THE LEAGUE IN YARDS PER COMPLETION!!!!! HOLLAZ!!!!
*Ignores majority come from Deebo backfield pitches that go for 70+ yards but get called a pass by weird rules
Not even remotely true my friend. Jimmy is top10 in the league (#8 I think) when it comes to "completed air yards per attempt". He has been pushing the ball in the middle range a lot this year.
He is also top10 in YAC, but he's no where near to #1 there. However, because if Kyle's playcalling brilliance and our playmakers' ability with the ball in open space, Jimmy is #1 in YAC per completion, and it's not even that close.
So, you got Jimmy pushing the ball down field a bit (not super deep, but constant midrange passes) and Deebo, Kittle and Aiyuk getting over 6 YAC per reception, and that's why Jimmy is leading the league in YPA.
Stop trying to take away all credit from Jimmy in our passing attack. Yes, he benefits greatly from star-studded players, absolutely, but the truth of the matter is that he's a hell of a QB that makes some tightly contest throws over the middle, but who is also majorly flawed and has a "wtf game" every 3 or 4 games.
We'll said.
The play calling brilliance is the reason jimmy is getting run out of town on a rail.
Practically every throw is "turnover worthy" -- by design. His completions require him to hit a target surrounded by db's in the middle of the field. Agaqin, by design. kyle doesn't want jimmy to hit open players in the wide part of the field. if you think about what shanny is trying to do, you can understand why.
Anyway, what's going to happen this sunday is that Jimmy will put off surgery til after the season. he will be our #2 againt texans, on the off chance Trey can't handle the situation.
Just in case we are down, like 24-3, at half with trey at a qbr of forty something, he'll come in and get a couple scores to keep it close, then start the next week.
This thread is absolutely disgusting and unprofessional in denigrating Jimmy and it reflects on the temperamental coach and whimsical front office. The statements of some supposedly professional posters is absolutely outrageous and ban-worthy.
Jimmy probably been playing with this condition for a while and aggravated it on the ridiculous throw down that would have drawn a roughing penalty on any other qb in the nfl.
