[QUOTE="gtg936g, post: 22822, member: 623"] We could throw it earlier, but we would not be able to sell the fake block by the ABacks that open up most of the big pass plays unless the play has longer to develop. The quick out / smoke route was the first call of the game. You really don't get much quicker of a throw than that, and Vad sailed it over the head of the receiver. I know very little about coaching QBs, but I just do not see all this mature talent everyone else does. He has a strong arm, he can throw a nice ball, but checking down and scrambling are skills that are a must at this level. There is nothing wrong with tucking the ball and getting 5 yards if the coverage gets confusing, or the throw is not there. He may have the physical characteristics of a QB, but I do not think he is mentally there yet. I think he can be coached there, but I do not think we have a polished diamond that is out of place. I think we have a rough diamond that needs a lot of polishing before he can really shine. I do not see that as a system issue. If he were a truly great QB mentally and physically, he would have learned how to make the reads by now. [/QUOTE]
