Just checked out Brennan highlight video

Because he was put in at the end of games that were already won. I'm sure he was told not to take any chances.

Next year he will have to produce rather than maintain. He'll do fine.

We have virtually no video to review. Mop up duty with the second team OL and receivers isn’t a fair judgement. Should we shite on Emery over all the times we got stood up in the backfield because of lookout blocks by the backups?

Couple of thoughts.

1. Stop comparing him to Joe

2. Not sure why they released a highlight video of mop up duty.

3. You are kidding if you dont think he has a cannon.

I have no idea how good he will be but I dont doubt his arm strength AT ALL

No big downfield throws.

Did you think we would try to run the score up on teams?

Like "yeah, let's throw deep!"

dumbass

He was put in when we were up by 40. That’s why there were no down the field shots.

in Joe’s first year as a Tiger, our all world receivers dropped A LOT of passes. In the off-season the story goes Brady fixed that by requiring all receivers to catch 10k balls thrown by a qback or juggs machine. Presumably many were thrown by Burrow and Brennan. I assume Brennan and his rcvrs will be doing similar amount of throwing this off season. I think Brennan looks great in the 2019 highlight reels floating around. And don’t forget Biletnikoff and Marshall are allowed to get even better too and they (and Jefferson caught) anything thrown up in their direction in Joe’s second year. Palmer, McMath and Arik will arrive in the starting lineup and they all bring outrageous talent. I’m cautious but when you throw in an Oline w tons of big game playing time from last year and our freak show stable of running backs I think theres plenty reason to be optimistic about next years offense.

One thing that stood out to me was that floating shotgun snap. That disrupts the timing on everything.

His footwork has always bothered me a bit, something not quite right, and not just the "happy feet"...never seems properly balanced when he throws.

But obviously strong arm, accurate, quick release, and seemed to get more comfortable as the year progressed.

I think Brennan will be really good. Only concern I have is that he was a little late on some out patterns and those can be a pick six. The TD pass he threw to Racey in the A&M game that went for a touchdown was a split second from being a pick 6.
