I know JJ has had some poor passes dropped, but how many catchables have been dropped? I know somebody out there knows, and I can think of a few. So how about it

you'll never get a straight answer the pro-lee guys will find something wrong with everyball that was dropped the pro-jj guys will find a reason all incomplete balls were dropped balls and not bad passes so you may have to look over the games yourself to find out

Not sure.. But "catchable" does not mean it was a good pass... And just because they catch a bad pass, it's still a bad pass

There are far more bad catches caught and just bad passes in general than there are good passed so far

I'm not a negatiger, just something that needs to be fixed

i was going to say threlve.

a lot of the so-called catchable balls (both caught and not), though, leave the receiver hanging because they don't hit anywhere near in stride. i know this has been discussed ad nauseum, but still very true.

I think that just about covers it, but just in case...

A lot of catchable balls have been dropped. Very few of the catchable balls that have been dropped were well thrown. Had they been caught, there would have been no YAC whatsoever...because they were poorly thrown balls.

Here's the problem, a porrly thrown ball can still be catchable because the receiver is contorting his body in awkward ways to still get is hands on it.

Like the ball in the first game the Shep dropped........it hit him in the hands AFTER he stopped his forward mation hand jump and tried to catch it over his head. Technically, they call that a drop but............

As many as you imagine to be, because imaginary things are real. According to a landmark case, Cartman v. Broflovski, imaginary things were ruled to be real.

ETA: My point being, "catchable" is semi-subjective thus someone will sit there and argue several balls thrown were completely uncatchable and someone else will argue that they were catchable.

it's Crowton's fault
it's the Offensive lines fault
it's the 5-star receivers fault
it's the running backs fault


yeah right

a couple by TT and a couple by Shep. I can't remember RR or a tight end dropping pass that should have been caught.

This can never be answered correctly because it is subjective. Chicken, please end this thread. Just kidding... carry on RANTARDS.
