silverpig Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 No way was that JJ's fault. His receivers were dropping balls left right and center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverpig Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I missed the first 2 Q's but from what I seen it felt like the chemistry just isn't there...Every time JJ throw's the ball I don't feel as comfortable as i did when Dickenson and even Printers used to make those last min clutching plays to Geroy..I guess I expect too much maybe.

nux4lyfe Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Dickenson was just plain accurate. He could drive 80 yards down the field and go 10/10 passing on 10 plays. That just isn't JJ's style nor is it what he is good at. He's not as accurate and doesn't have the timing like Dickenson has, and is much better when his receivers spread the defensive backs out across the field. He's got the range to be able to air the ball out and that is where he thrives. Yeah, maybe chemistry isn't there, but if a QB puts the ball in a receiver's hands and he doesn't catch it, it's not the QB's fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXCanucksXX Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 What happend the last few plays of the game?

canuck73_3 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 I dunno man. JJ seemed to overthrow quite a few receivers yesterday. How many times did he throw high over the head and out of reach? Yes, sometimes can be bacd route running, but mostly no arm control. IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moondawg Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 So when the WR has the ball in his hands and then proceeds to drop it it's poor arm control on the QB? Where does this make any sense, I'm not saying Jarious played well but give me a break there were clearly 3 drops that were definately the fault of the receiver.

What I've noticed is that JJ really "rifles" the ball at his receivers a good deal of the time vs throwing it "to" them. While I'm not slamming him and think he played well, he needs to fine tune that and learn to drop the ball in there at times....also, so many were just beyond the receiver's fingertips. Not so much "drops" - more that he "just missed" his targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Bob Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Maybe the Leos can sign him after his next retirement. BC Place would be to capacity every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
