Last year he didn't play that well. That 2.0 game was rather ridiculous how bad it was. Tying the NFL's mark for worst playoff record didn't help either.

If you are going blame the lack of weapons last year, then you have to credit the quantity and quality of weapons this year. The two go hand in hand. For me he just didn't play that well. He looks different this year, much more in command, much more certain. Last year, not so much.

I am happy that he has turned the corner, but he didn't turn that corner until this year and I'm very willing to give him credit for that. But I won't pretend like he deserved those accolades last year cause he just didn't.

I do credit the quality of weapons EVERY QB needs weapons... no one can pass to themselves block for themselves every play

When a QB is having a Great Season you see his WRs making great adjustments and laying out and making great catches when needed.

That same QB could make the same throws Either on the money or slightly off the mark but if the effort isnt there on the other end then stats drops.

Last year he actualy improved his completion precentage dispite all his targets being on the bottom half of the depth chart or hurt. His TD numbers went down for sure as we had 2 RBs handling business... And INTS went up cause the only out there he trusted was an less than 100% green (especially the 2nd half the season)


yeah the TNF game was bad... from the ENTIRE 11 men playing on offense.
