What a novel concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toledo Bill Posted September 24, 2006 Author Share Posted September 24, 2006 Give ANY NFL quarterback time to throw and they'll kill you. What a novel concept. 784588[/snapback] All I meant was that he is more effective than most when he has time and that he is very efficient with a short game (also due to his not having a strong arm). I'll try to work on some more novel concepts and astute observations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester43 Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 i agree with you bill. and i know i won't find many here who agree, but i think pennington is UNDERRATED as a field general. the crap conditions and the kind of game they neccesitated were tailor made for him imo. how many times does that mothereffer have to embarrass us before bills fans give him some repect?

MDH Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I just don't get why the D was giving the middle of the field to the Jet's O. I'd make Pennington beat me to the outside and deep. I'd also take some chances and jump some routes. Those softballs Pennington throws had INT written all over them if someone jumps a route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care if Pennington can execute drives with great precision and not turn over the ball 3 times a game. Can he throw beyond 40 yards?

Pennington was throwing the ball 2 to 3 seconds after the ball was snapped. The Bills may have had enough time if they went to a defense that took away the flat passing routes. Why they didn't know that Chad Pennington was going to be throwing short passes today (because he can't throw it beyond twenty yards) is beyond my freakin comprehension. This loss was so avoidable it makes me ill. The Jets stink which makes our team a downright embarassment right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even notice the defensive line trying to get their arms up. It seemed like our defense didn't know they were going to see only short passes. Very confusing.
