Quote:Check downs as the words signify implies checking down when the mid range/deep options aren't available.  I am okay with that within reason.  We complained that he slung it too much last year resulting in the picks and low % completion.  The idea is to remain efficient, eat clock and put up points, whatever means are employed.  The confidence and hunger he displayed last year, which now appear waning, concerns me.  But, tis a needed bye, and a relatively young season. Hopefully, he'll regain his moxy.

He will be the line is new.  And I meant the coaches have him scared now to throw downfield.  So asking a guy who slings it to be more cautious and throw shorter makes no sense.  We didn't lose all those games due to the offense.  The d was terrible and couldn't sack anyone and qbs had all day to throw the ball.  They should let Blake be and do his thing. 

 

He had 35 tds and 18 ints.  which isnt terrible   cam who made it to super bowl had 

35 tds  10 int  and a much better o line and a top notch defense.  

 

So those who think Blake was to blame for the lack of wins are highly mistaken.  

 

I say let the kid play.
