You'll see EJ burn a time out,and complete a pass back to the line of scrimmage. (Etc,etc.) It seems like he needs the time out to simply gather himself.
EJ's problem is that he is TERRIFIED out there.
He had no choice with WATT IN HIS FACE. Observe EJ when he scrambles. He will sacrifice yardage to avoid taking a hit. EVERY TIME. I don't make the Trent Edwards comparison lightly. EJ is every bit as gutless as Trent.
EJ's ENTIRE game is based on not throwing a pick NO MATTER WHAT, and not taking a hit NO MATTER WHAT.
EJ is the second coming of Trent Edwards. Clueless,and hopeless.
I think EJ is the only person on the planet who thinks he can sell a fake. So laughable, since nobody on the defense buys it every time. every game.
Problem is, he likely HAS reached it.
Agreed. Looks like they spent all of those Stadium $$$$$$$'s on limestone bolders, and black paint. The place is a fortification. The Architect who conceived this travesty must be highly paranoid.
