Bortles hold the ball too long

#26

Quote:There, I said it.


I know BB is a gifted escape artist, and that an important part of his appeal is the vaunted ability to extend the play. But having the above-all important 'internal clock' trumps these abilities. Every good QB must recognize they have to get rid of the ball in a timely fashion. Especially when the O-line is prone to letting players come free. Too often BB's feet are planted, and motionless, when the ball shoild be on its way somewhere.


I have been watching football long enough (far longer than he has been on the planet) that when I find myself yelling "THROW IT!!!", 5 times in a game there's an issue.


We need more timing type passing plays, where he 3 step drops then chucks it.


I didn't read thru the thread about our O being too complex, but I'd echo that sentiment to a degree.


For my money, I'd like to see them let BB run the 2-minute offense almost exclusively for awhile, or at least until we can get out in front of a game. It's a great skill of his, we should develop it.


Sorry about the missing 's' in the thread title..
The receivers arent getting open, and the OLine is collapasing before he even gets to his full drop on most occasions..
