Most offenses run about 45% of their plays as run plays.. thats half the playbook.. A High School QB can hand the ball off... unless you're to stupid to remember if the RB is running to the right or left of you...
Plenty of QB's have grasped playbooks as rookies.. let's stop making excuses [Reply]

It was reported 2PM has spent the last 6 months working on his footwork and throwing motion (mechanics) because he felt or was told that his current style would not transition well to the NFL.
Is he perfect now? Probably not and still needs a lot of work, but he spends every single day trying to get better.
By the first preseason game, I think we will see a much-improved 2PM over last year in college and have a really good idea how great this kid will be. [Reply]

Of course, Mahomes might do just fine as well. Doesn't mean that his poor mechanics are a good thing. Aaron Rodgers still uses his bad habits every so often so that he can make throws from a bad position. Rodger also learned to throw with good mechanics whenever he can though. We need to push Mahomes to follow the example of Rodgers as much as possible. Mahomes isn't going to be able to sit as long as Rodgers did though. [Reply]

When he took his first snaps in 2014 for the Red Raiders, Mahomes was, by his own admission, “not going through the progressions and just running around and throwing the ball"
Mahomes is the classic Boom or Bust type player... big arm but has happy feet... Some say he's Jamarcus Russell II - His green light he had in college to scramble and play sand lot football and just "chuck" the ball in the air won't work in the NFL
Until he is able to to learn to stand tall in the pocket and deliver strikes he's gonna go down the Russell, RGIII path- [Reply]

:-) So he is going to show up to camp fat and never learn the playbook?
This post is the only time I have ever heard 2PM compared to JaFatass. [Reply]
