The wind certainly affected even Geno's throws to the sidelines and hashes. The wind caused a couple of screen passes to sail high. It caused a couple of sideline passes to cut short of the receiver.

To me, some of that is still on Geno. One of the few true question marks in Geno's game to me is top-end arm strength. He's a QB who is in love with the touch and accuracy he passes with, so he rarely (if ever) muscles a bullet somewhere. Some of those short throws in the Pinstripe Bowl were because Geno didn't throw hard enough to account for the wind.

NFL coverages are going to dictate that Geno sometimes really zip a ball into a small window. He can't rely solely on his touch. From everything I've seen in games, I think Geno has the arm strength to succeed at a high level in the NFL.

So I'm pretty eagerly anticipating Geno pro days, where he's going to be made to put some mustard on the ball.
