Holy shite. So when JJ said he played well, he really thought he did. Our coaching staff is telling them they are playing great.

WTF.

I think my decision-making in all of those passes is pretty good.

The coaching staff didn't say he was playing great.

AJ is bad, he cant complete to open receivers. Its like i wish JJ was back because honestly JJ might have been better. and we all know thats saying alot. We need Harris to run away with the QB position in spring and summer if we want a REAL chance to go undefeated and a NC run next year.

Translation: your mind is making the right decision, but you just are not being accurate.

You're taking those quotes out of context. They/he are saying that he's making good decisions on where to go with the ball, he's just not making good throws.

That does not mean that he's playing well/great.

If you actually read it he basically admits that he sucks

You think that means the coaches think he is playing perfect football?

They are saying he is throwing to the right receiver and then he follows it up by saying he needs to do a better job at getting the ball in better spots for those receivers.

Some of you have extreme reading comprehension problems.

This was a good interview. Jennings said that he needs to improve and knows that he has messed up.

Do you really think he hits the right target?

Seriously? He doesnt go through a progression, he doesnt look for an open man, he doesnt look at his checkdowns...he even makes the wrong reads on when to run or throw.

This explains a lot.

The only way this makes any sense is if their expectations for him are extremely low: to simply hit the first receiver or throw it away. His stats support this.

If their expectation is any higher, you know like progress to second or third receiver,check down, use the internal clock to scramble and manufacture a play, there's no way they can say that.

Not every time but I feel he has thrown many passes to wide open guys that were the right target but he missed them because of a bad throw.

I'm also not sure why you are laughing about me saying he needs to make better throws to the receivers he does throw to. Jennings admitted this.

Hate to break it to you but neither of them are capable of winning a championship. It's pretty obvious Harris isn't putting in the work the coaches need to see to overtake Jennings. Jennings just doesn't have the talent. We need to recruit a tall pocket passer like Mett.

The real translation: He's doing EXACTLY what Les and Cam tell him he can do.

Now if only Trey Quinn can catch the ball that Jennings puts in his hands and Travin Dural would man up against a DB ... that would be something.
