I would like someone to address this, if they can.
I watched one of Garoppolo's games, and he seemed to have solid enough decision making and accuracy. However, he did not push the ball down the field, or to the outside.
Anyway, I went to the splits, which I know drives some people crazy, but stats are a record of what someone has done, even if they don't tell the entire story.
Anyway,of Jimmy's 63 passes, 46 were 10 yards or less. 1/4 were behind the LOS. Of his passes 11 yards and more, he completed 8 of 16 for 170 yards.
On passes to the sidelines, he completed 16-27 for 59%. He threw mostly short,and mostly inside the hashmarks.
Those who want us to go after him in a trade, is it what you saw on the college level, or is it something you saw in his couple of games in relief of Brady? To me it looks as though he was protected to a very great degree. However, maybe I'm wrong, and if so, then please let me know what you saw from him.
Thanks.
I don't know a lot about a lot, particularly JimmyG. But from what little I've seen he seems to be pretty decent at reading a defense, knows where he wants to go with the ball, and gets rid of it quickly. Same kinds of things we saw with Hoyer so I think that at a minimum we see some consistency with
what we would be getting out of NE. Now
how much we get from that clearly remains to be seen.
What I do believe is that guys like Corey Coleman and TP would benefit from a QB who gets rid of the ball quickly in a massive way. Yes, these guys are good for deep shots, but their biggest impact is getting the ball in their hands as soon as possible and in position to gain some YAC.
A QB with these 3 traits I think gets us at least 6 wins alone.
