I watched the game, he didn't have a lot of time, i get the o line stunk. But when he did, he still cuts off 3/4th the field and 3/4ths his pass catchers. He drops back. Locks immediately to one option..and stubbornly chucks a timing pattern to a guy he PRAYS will magically get open in 4 seconds.
It's the same way hes always played vs cleveland. Same way he's played In nearly every primitive game, same way he played in the Pro Bowl, and the same way he's played in every playoff game.
How can we have a QB who is unable to do things most D1 College QBS do with ease? There are 32 starting NFL jobs in the world. Why has this franchise hitched their wagon to one who has decided who he's going to throw too before he takes a snap?
Look at Rodger, Brees, Brady, Wilson, Ben, Flacco,...they check mutiple WRS and TES before throwing, heck even rookies like Winston do it.
Why can't Andy? He doesn't even do it when he has time to throw. Locks in, blindly hurls it. Same results.
It's very concerning. Cause it's not something more time or practice can fix. It's what he is. Scated, panicked and a one read arm.
If we really are OK with have a 1 read qb...why not at least get a guy with a better arm? And a better haircut,
If he had all day to throw the ball like Winston did he probably would have been able to. Perhaps he's a bit gun shy seeing as how there's usually someone in his face if he waits too long?
