re: What I Would Like To See From Jennings / Harris This Week

How does he need to work on his touch? He threw a perfect touch pass to Malachi for a touchdown. Do you know football lol?

Not sure if you are serious or not, but that pass to Dupre was no where near perfect, it was on too much of a line, and if it wasnt for the terrific hands and athleticism of Dupre the ball would not have been caught, and fade route should have Height and thrown to the back corner away from the defender...Dupre barely had enough time to adjust to the ball because there was no time to adjust because the ball was poorly thrown....Touch is usually difficult to learn for a Quarterback that throws the ball with a lot of velocity, Much like mett in his first season...Harris and Mett both utilize an elevated elbow in their throwing motion...(They get behind the ball well) creating more velocity and revolutions (Ball spins) per second. (Kind of like a baseball pitcher throwing a heavy baseball, Eep. Josh Beckett) AKA arm Whip. (also more prone to having tommy john surgery in Baseball)

they had to learn how to slow down their arm speed and use more wrist and finger pressure on the end of the throw. Again often difficult for a young QB to learn...Im sure they are working on now and look forward to seeing his progress..

P.S.
I am a offensive Coordinator and QB Coach for a Large high school in TX....I think I know a little bit about football. Am I Gus Malzahn hell no, but we have won a lot of games here...
