| Anthony Jennings surprising pocket passing ability (Posted on 1/31/13 at 7:23 pm)
After watching about an hour and half of film on Anthony Jennings i was extremely surprised how people say he is mostly just a running qb. The guy has a beautiful throwing motion(reminds me of Chris Leak) and awesome anticipation. i realize that dual threat means he can do both but this guy should be classified as a pocet passer that can run a 4.4!! maybe 4.5, 4.6 idk, still very quick.

Those people obviously didn't watch his film, instead they looked at the color of his skin and assumed he must be a dual-threat.

tough to say, I think both can fit our system... whatever it maybe this year
hard to tell if any highschool kid will transition especially at the qb spot
but i feel comfortable with either taking the reigns in the coming years

Most people realize he's not just a running QB

Rettig can also run a little. But once again, he's white so most don't think he can. We've got two great ones fellas!

it just seems to me that the offense we run would favor a fster, more elusive qb

Actually, everybody pretty much agrees that he has a great arm with great touch.. that just so happens to be pretty quick when running the ball

we are going to need someone with a pocket pressence
to be able to feel the pressure coming without taking his eyes off being down field
right now that is Mett's biggest hurdle, his awareness gets him into trouble

Thats because people see the color of his skin and decide to show their ignorance by thinking hes a running qb, he is actually a pro style qb

Who says this? Seriously in every thread about him, most people talk about how hes not a only running QB.
Who are you talking to that says this?

Let's just hope they don't regress like other QBs have while here.
