This guy is overthrowing streaking receivers 30-40 yards downfield. If anything, he needs to reign the throws in. Hes missed Avery twice that I remember, and also missed a wide open Jamaal Charles that was lined up against a linebacker this season.
Dude seriously needs reps in practice just developing timing with Donnie and Jamaal on those deep routes. Its gut wrenching to watch all of these plays being missed that would be incredible plays through the air.
Blocking was shit today though. Looked like Jordan Black was out there in a Fisher Jersey at RT. Happy with the win, but we have some serious work to do before this divisional road trip gauntlet coming up.

two opinions that always drove me nuts.
Alex has small hands, not true.
Alex has a weak arm.
Also not true.
Alex thinks too much. Alex is extremely inaccurate on deep throws to anyone not named Vernon Davis, and I have never figured it out.
