What Do These Young Starting Quarterbacks Have In Common?


Recommended Posts

Tannehill, Wilson, Kaepernick, Dalton, and Foles. Come on, it's easy.

We didn't draft them. On their bad day they are better then Fitz on a good day. They can throw the ball further then Fitz can, with their NON-Throwing arm. Shall I go on? And maybe the saddest thing, they all make much less then Fitz. Edited by BuffBill

They have big hands and good pocket presence.

 

Fitz can't pump fake, and he tucks his head and runs into defenders/back of offensive linemen when there's pressure. (or makes a really bad throw)

 

Yeah - what's up with that? He's always had spotty arm strength and poor throwing accuracy, but I don't remember him making this many bad pocket decisions in prior years. Heck, wasn't his pocket presence what won him the job over Trent Edwards? This season, multiple times each week Fitz seems to ignore huge available spaces to slide to and just folds up.

 

That, and now when he does move out, he doesn't ever seem to throw it - are there really no open receivers even when he starts scrambling?
