[QUOTE="Techster, post: 256593, member: 360"] Within the framework of this offense, JeT is a good passer. He can make all the throws required from our passing schemes. What he struggles with is seeing the entire field, and throwing the ball over the middle. Most of his reads are confined to a 3rd of the field of the field for the most part (has marks out). That's OK in this offense because of the design, but there are receivers available he just doesn't see sometimes. Obviously, height is an issue for JeT when he's 5'9-5'10, but it's not a detriment that it's taking away from what we do. If you look at all the QBs that played for CPJ, QBs with 50-100 passing attempts that have played under him rarely have completion % over 50%. JeT has been able to do it 2 of 3 years (so far). GT doesn't run a sophisticated passing attack so what JeT is doing works for us. If the question is framed within the context of whether JeT is a good passer in this offense, then there's no denying that. Would JeT be a good passer in other offenses? I think he would struggle with full field reads and passing over the middle...but I think he would do OK. I think our offense and all the single coverage (mostly man) certainly helps JeT. JeT doesn't see much exotic coverage schemes if at all. That equation changes in other offenses. But in other offenses, JeT is probably a more dangerous weapon since defenses are not as concerned with the QB like they are in our offense. [/QUOTE]
