He's been awful at deep passes, no other way around it. It's a major weakness of his passing game.

Very good at the short and intermediate timing throws. Cannot put a ball on point >30 yards to save his life.

Definitely. I said from the beginning. He is going to have to play better than he has up to this point for us to win in November.

yep. I'm still holding out on that it's mostly chemistry/timing with the WRs and that it will indeed work itself out. Hopefully by today... IF he has time Sat we sure could use several.

He does not have timing down with his deep receivers. He tends to overthrow them. Look, what we need is a game manager. When Mettenberger played in 12 he used the intermediate to keep Bama off balance.
