Just spit out my Chardonnay watching that. What in the heck is he doing uncorking one to Mostert like that standing still 10 yards away?
I mean it's nothing crazy but you would expect a qb to not try and break the radar gun on a warm up throw like that.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
He's just practicing, and hell yes an RB needs to be able catch that easily, they need to develop so when they can't separate they can still get the ball.
If you aren't trolling here then I question your knowledge. Go watch Josh Allen and Mahomes, unless they are laying it over a defender or into an area for their targets to run into, they gun it in there, bad things come to those who wait.
These guys aren't baby's where the balls are too hard to catch. They're pro's - they should be able to catch what ever they get their hands on.
He does need to learn to throw with touch on a more consistent basis. Why the hell would you make it harder for your receivers to catch your passes? That's is completely counterproductive. It is something the kid is going to have to learn to do anyway. It's a legit area of concern, aside from bamaboy's attempt to turn it into a troll.
I think his passes are getting blown out of proportion. It's like a hive mind sometimes in the media.
He threw a couple of passes that were too fast for the situation and suddenly people are acting like the kid can't throw a checkdown without it being a rifle shot. Heard Pat Kirwan on NFL radio yesterday jokingly saying that.
Absolutely ridiculous. Honestly to me the bigger issue was his hesitancy sometimes. The double clutching causing him to be late and needing to get the ball there faster.
Once he's more comfortable with his reads he'll be able to get the ball there as expected but even with the hesitancy we saw sometimes people are blowing the whole "he throws it too hard" garbage out of proportion.
Completely agree, Genus. Hive mind on a lot of things is a problem. When it comes to football, I'm seeing so much laziness. People will attach to a convenient narrative and then go look for evidence to support it so they are, "right". This is a huge problem on twitter because on twitter it's not about being right, it's about being first.
So, people will rush/hurry judgements off surface level review and then stand by those statements no matter what. Because if you dare admit you were wrong, they think they'll be less credible and won't be followed as closely.
I've seen this so many times. People will attach a narrative about a certain guy, before film is even out, then go look for proof in film. The reality is, that's a whole lot easier than scouring the film, paying close attention to details and having a mind to pick up on the patterns and then making a proclamation based off the review. I'm rarely, if ever, the first film review video put out. That's because I'm not rushing to be first. I'd rather do my due diligence and be thorough than just make wild claims and then try and find proof.
This same thing is happening to Trey and it drives me bananas. The kid should be fine.
