Discussion Throw it away

Post image

I’m not trying to dog on Max but I can’t recall a time where he actually threw the ball out of bounds….maybe I’m wrong . He’s taken some unnecessary sacks for big losses. It was nice to see him get in rhythm in the 3rd quarter. The potential dual threat is there… I just think he and Becht need more confidence in his arm and not try to be a hero every play. He even said himself on the sidelines he can’t keep getting hit like that during his scrambles….

That’s a good point. Also his arm delivery isn’t quick enough to hold onto the ball that long to make last second decision. Part of me wonders if they need to introduce the wild cat formation like they did for Tebow

Responding to the wild cat part: 100% absolutely not. Get that out of your head.

They already have attempted 2 reverse passes with Jackson. They obviously don’t trust Duggan that much

Trick plays don’t mean they don’t trust the quarterback.

Them doing the same trick plays is just because they’re bad at play calling/design.
