Wrong grip for passing, ball not tucked tight for running.

Dang. Fire Candeto then.

Lol...this photo has no context whatsoever. Could be that he was faking an option pitch when this was taken.

I can't remember the QBs name, but he played for Ball State a while back. This guy was one of the most accurate QBs that I remember seeing and he didn't put any fingers on the laces. He just held the end of the football. I really don't think it matters how you hold the football as long as you're accurate (which TQM isn't).

That was from when he was playing A-Back. He should probably move back to that position. I applaud his ball security. Why did he forget about it when he moved to QB?

Troy Aikman would throw the ball with the laces in the palm of his hand. Dang, he might’ve been a good quarterback if somebody had just showed him the one and only way a quarterback should grip the ball.

Show the clip of the play, not just a still shot. This pick is worthless w/o context.

Exactly, I really don't believe that the way you hold ball makes a difference. It's your other mechanics that matter and just whether or not you have an accurate arm.

Notice the grip on the football.

That is impressive...

Of course he didn't forget...plenty of pics of him at QB showing him holding ball correctly.

TM knows how to carry and throw the ball, He just isn't consistent in his form/mechanics.

A google check of TM images shows several of him running and dropping back. The film on him would show that he steps wrong with his front foot and side arms the ball at times-- mostly on his deep passes. If the QB coach or any other coach hasn't seen this in film, much less a game they should be replaced. I do understand that a player can be coached and yet revert to habit under pressure but this may be a flaw of option offense --- not enough time to practice everything (however that would cause me to question a players dedication). I have made it known that in my opinion the defense is the problem however TM missed several big passes that would have sealed games, even if it was 50 to 43

I think he is , at least mentally, running for his life on passing plays . I am not sure as a QB that the game has "slowed down "for him consistently.
