Why does Steichen play calling remind me so much of Frank Reich? 3 runs up the middle, then call a screen on 3rd and 17. He's had some really bad series play calling wise these last few games. Speaking of, how is this team still so bad at running/defending screens still?? Franklin needs to be benched. That dude is doing his best Shaq Leonard impression and and he flat out sucks. It would be nice to see a TE pass once a game for crying out loud. That was a game of who's QB is less crappy. (not sure ours was better tbh) but that was brutal to watch. AR has got to figure out his footwork. These sailing balls are out of control and happen way too often. Then when he tried to put touch on the pass, it's underthrown. They have got to devote more time to his mechanics. I would've liked to see better blocking for JT. JT made some stuff happen, but he got stuffed quite often too. There are other runs beside up the middle there Steichen. AR playing out of shotgun is getting old. If Latu stays healthy, we got the steal of the draft. I will say that if your O-line features Matt Pryor at guard, you're gonna have problems. -

Can't keep having your safety be leading tackler. We will also lose Cross to injury if the rest of the team can't learn how to tackle. Especially Franklin -
I still think the inaccuracies and the sailing of his throws is masking the progress he's made as a QB. I think decision-making-wise and when it comes to reading the defense, he's on a very good trajectory. He looks like a QB who knows what he's doing, who knows where he needs to go with the ball. He probably needs to work on his timing with the receivers a bit and he needs to be a bit quicker with his decisions at times, but overall those are things a young QB will naturally get better at with time and experience. Just take a moment and think about it - it feels like almost every single one of his worst looking throws are throws where he went through his progression, read the defense and made the right decision. Just the throws themselves were off. Some of them WAY OFF. Now don't get me wrong, at some point he will need to start hitting those throws because at the end of the day what's the point of reading the defense and making the right decision if you sail the ball 5 yards over the receiver's head? If he doesn't get better at that, he will bust, because no team will have the patience for a vet QB who can't hit those type of throws with any consistency. I really hope the coaching staff is working with him on it and we see some progress by the end of the season. -
