He likes to throw a skinny post or short slant. Now he’s more conditioned to be more methodical. But with time he’s going to be lethal.

You don’t think between Dan Pitcher, Brian Callahan, and Zac don’t know how to attack the deep cover 2 and rush 3 drop 8. They’ve seen everything. Most of them have been around football all their lives. Brian was a QB and Zac and Dan. Joe was the one pushing back. He said so n pressers much later in the season. Not saying they were ready but Joe absolutely without any doubt was a part of it.
Im going to disagree with this "hate" reference regarding short and methodical passing. Just isnt the case, changing up to more check downs is simply part of the game and Joe loves the game within the game. The only things we know that Joe doesnt actually like is inside pass rush and turning his back to the defense on play action (which was likely a trust issue due to poor blocking).
