[QUOTE="Bruce Wayne, post: 74427, member: 231"] I would love for Tevin to come back and spend some time teaching Thomas how to take the hits or avoid them. Of course, I have not yet seen Thomas get lit up like Jaybo used to so I am not trying to suggest he is not already capable of "rolling with the punch" or otherwise finessing and diminishing the impact and angles that defenders hit him at. I do think Tevin was an all-american at doing that though and it is a great skill to develop for an option QB. I was pleased to see Thomas find the sideline several times and take the first down and what he could get then head back for the next play. I loved seeing Nesbitt put a hit on people and get those extra tough yards . . . but that was NESBITT. Each QB is different and like Joe Hamilton said "Thomas needs to be the best Justin Thomas he can be" and that will be different than his predecessors. On his first half passes I was pleased that his overthrows were all still overthrown the "right" way. I know it sounds confusing but I am saying they were "good" misses where he was putting it where only his receiver could have made a play, trying to lead them to it, etc. The sole exception was setting up poor Charles Perkins (I think it was him) to get crushed on a crossing route. He threw that one to the wrong side down the middle. So one straight up [I]bad [/I]pass in the first half and perfect in the second half. A good first effort to build on! [/QUOTE]
