[QUOTE="Techster, post: 743649, member: 360"] I'll keep saying it, but Jeff Sims is showing us the difference between an elite QB playing QB and an elite athlete playing QB. Passes that look routine and QBs should make the vast majority of times (Sims completion percentage was close to 68%), we struggled mightily with in the past or just didn't see them. Those short and intermediate passes keeps our offense on the field and create manageable 3rd down situations. Totally different feeling with Sims at QB...we're not holding our breath on pass plays. Our staff became a bit conservative inside the red zone, and I wonder if that's because maybe Sims is prone to force things down there. I'd like to see our coaches roll him out and give him a 1-2 read then run option in the red zone. Sims can do damage with his legs if the reads aren't there, and it forces defenses to commit defenders giving us more space in the defensive backfield. It's going to be fun to watch Sims develop over the years. His arm and legs make the defenses have to defend the entirety of the field. That's gonna give our coaches the entire playbook to work with.
