I'm really excited about Tommy this year.

A lot of people on the Facebook machine will be eating their words.

Prediction... If Riley has him passing 40 times per game, we'll see two extra losses than if his pass attempts are reigned in to around 15 to 20 maximum per game.

Um, no. Unrealistic expectations. 20-25 attempts.

TMagic = Tom Brady

:L

Brasky was comparing Tommy to Taylor.

I was making a point. In Taylor's picture, he was throwing a 15 yard out. In Tommy's picture, he was throwing a 55 yard bomb.....just like Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady were both doing in their pictures.

Point made. Your shoulders should be aiming at the trajectory that the ball needs to fly. Tommy was picture perfect in that picture.

I think that all the folks who want to start POB over Tommy this year are out of their dadburned minds.

This is not a throwaway season. This is season 2 under Riley. This is season 2 for Tommy. This is the season where players make a huge jump. Tommy's advantage is he has 4 years of starting on the big stage so he feels no pressure.

If we start Pat we are throwing the season away just to try and build the future. He'll get some snaps this year. But he sure as shit will be coming off the bench.

All Tommy has to do is learn to let plays go when they need to be let go and he suddenly is one of the most dangerous QB's and players in the entire country.

The good thing is we can run Tommy more this season because our backup QB spot isn't limited to a walk-on tall version of Chucksker.

We have POB to put in there now if Tommy does get hurt.

Let Tommy get out of the pocket and make plays this season and it could be down right dangerous. He is at his best when he's throwing on the run, and he's one of the best running QB's in the nation.

It the kid can improve his accuracy and timing even just slightly that'd be a big deal

The Oregon game is going to tell us everything. If Tommy hasn't improved, we're going to lose that game. If he has, we're going to win it.

To me it's more about decision making. When he makes his throws out to the sideline he is right on the money. When he feels like a play is shut down, however, he wants to still make a play.....so he forces it down field where it has no business going.

If he can just learn to let it go. This is his last chance. He's gotta learn to throw the ball away.

He wants so bad to lead the team to victory he takes huge risks, he just needs to get the ball into our playmakers hands, safetly without getting them killed jumping for air balls. We've got some great weapons to use

I was saying I see huge progress in a good way JJM.

It was a joke.

I hope you were joking about TB and AR.
