In OT, there was the "drive for five," and Sanchez came through...

The other flaw this exposes is that Sanchez also holds on to the ball too long way too often. If he was quicker and more decisive, he could throw the ball more often on his plant, gun it into open space when the receiver hits his break. When he takes a little longer, he either throws on the run or he does what Green does--find a soft pocket in the zone and throw to a spot which doesn't require nearly as much zip on the ball. That's something he was criticized for in college but it's just now coming to light. Maybe he fixes it with experience. Then again, maybe he doesn't. The other concern is something I think is fixable. His fired balls didn't look great either. They seem to often tail on him. He's going to have to work with the QBs coach on getting a much crisper ball out of his hands. |

![]() Did somebody say QB pressures??? Also...throwing Manning's name in this thread is pointless. 3700 yards and 26 TDs |

While true, Cassel played in the AFC East last year. Foxboro is as bad if not worse than the Meadowlands. Also, Fitzgerald didn't seem to have a problem--he sucked, but his passes didn't seem to be affected by the conditions.

At least he's trying to win, because he's throwing all those picks and all.

It's so they can feel all smart and smug and say "I told you so". They want Sanchez to succeed and Cassel to fail for their own egos.

Sanchez wanted to keep Buffalo out of our draft pick area, win!

Yup. And he played at Cincinnati and the AFC North, where the conditions are tougher. Like I said, it's something that can be fixed. But I think a lot of what he saw today is going to force him to adjust his game pretty significantly. It's definitely at least something to keep on the radar.

Did you get your PhD in Dumbassery? Yeah, I'm sure that people who have suffered with this team for 30+ years really want to watch Cassel fail, so we can suffer another 5 years - all so they can say, "I told you so." reerun. |

I haven't seen anyone who is urging patience for rookie QBs doing that, so I'd say that pretty much ****s this idea.

Yes. Precisely why I've kept losing money on ST's for the last 3 years of 7 and 31 football.
