Himmy aka Hit me, as hit me with the ball so I can score.
That's about the most simple and easiest job he needs to do because every starting weapon on the team has talent to take it to the house or at least get plenty of YAC: CMC, deebo, AB, kittle, Mitchell..
Just don't throw INTs, bad throws and make bonehead decisions and get the f**king ball out quickly and on time Jimmy aka Himmy before you get pressured or sacked!!!! 🤣 I mean the only best thing Jimmy has is his quick release..
I'm sure the plays KS is drawing up every week especially pass plays, are quick ones with quick reads and many quick options to ALL these weapons as Jimmy is limited to his arm strength and mobility, are the reasons we have seen better success with the offense now that CMC has been acclimated, just get the ball out quickly to ANY of these weapons if they are open especially vs man to man or a mismatch.
Mmmm, not really.
1. We have very, very few 7 step drop plays. That vast majority of our dropback passing game are 5 step and 5 step with a hitch.
The longer developing plays are play-action.
ARI was playing a 6 man front a lot of the first half so we threw it 21x to 7 runs. Kyle talked about this. That meant no real play-action game. It wasn't until the 2nd half we saw some play-action, like the slide concept to Kittle for the TD
As far as dropback passes, they were mostly 5 step and 5+hitch passes.
Doesnt matter, you adapt to the circumstances is always the best action in war or football, aka take advantage of what the D gives you (and any injured or subpar players they have), furthermore you have to always play and make use of your own strengths and hide your weaknesses whether that's war or football. And we ALL know what Jimmy's limitations are and so does the whole NFL, now that the team is stack with offensive weapons at every starting position, just get the ball out as quick as possible, on passing plays, to the weapons that's open and you're good to go, the opposing D especially an injured one, CAN'T COVER EVERYONE especially if the play was designed well, pass or run for that matter.
Jimmy's "limitations" are less related to his body than his mind. What I mean by that is he has the arm to make every throw an NFL QB needs to make. He just prefers to keep the throws quick and over the middle. He also has historically gotten into trouble with jittery footwork—even when not under pressure. But that's not because he has a "weak arm." When his footwork is sound he's extremely accurate. And when he has to throw off-platform, that habit of leaving his feet pays off on short passes, where he can get the ball to the target without using his feet.
However, as long as he chooses the right times to leave his feet, he's very, very good, and can beat teams at all three levels.
