DDD Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 he's arguably the best player on the field and doesnt touch the ball? Because Trent didn't want to become more of a goat after the three early pics. Part of me says the guy cares and didn't want to hurt the team further. The other part of me says he needs to shrug it off and not change the way he plays. I kept thinking of Jim Kelly and Brett Farve. Whenever they threw pics, they shrugged it off immediately and started gunslinging again. You can't play scared as a QB.
keepthefaith Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 he's arguably the best player on the field and doesnt touch the ball? Basically after the 3 picks, Edwards threw most of his passes to Lynch. He didn't throw it down the field. He made Jauron like a drunken sailor in comparison.

I also noticed in the press conference thaat Trent said he wanted Royal and two other players to gather around him. No mention of Evans.
bowery4 Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 I saw Lee open sometimes, it is true. He doesn't come back to the ball though. Trent is at fault for not trowing to the best reciever when he has all day and he really needs to use the pump fake too, but Lee also needs to go back towards the ball on plays where Trent sees him in front of a CB. (one thing I noticed Johnson and Royal both do well) Trent lost his confidence and Lee needs to understand it, which you would think he would since he has been through it with JP before. In anycase it must be frustrating for him at this point.

I mean, if they had, they would have adjusted the WR's routes a little, right?? Right?? How about wrong.......
thewildrabbit Posted November 19, 2008 Posted November 19, 2008 This last game might be a blessing in disguise,maybe the OC will now try and run the ball more instead of throwing it every down!
