If he could reliably complete a 15-20 yard pass downfield and...

...read receiver progressions beyond WR1 and occasionally WR2, I'd actually be OK with his being the QB.

As it stands (and as his limits are painfully evident), he's not going to reach that level. You're entirely right, that if we needed to grab 20 yards at a time, we're in a no-win situation.

He's not seeing WR's break open, and even when he does, it's more often than not, that the pass won't be caught by the receiver because it's under/over/badly thrown. The long pass to Beaux Collins was more of an abnormality.

If he can prove me dead wrong, I'll be happy to eat roasted crow.

        • Really? You mean Leonard makes the throws in practice? Doubt it. [NT] - Frank L - 9:14pm 9/22/24

                  • Imagine there is a scoreboard and I’m pointing to it… NIU… that was a game. Wish it was practice. [NT] - oldirish - 7:26am 9/23/24
                    • And if they put in Angeli with the ball and the lead and he throws the pick. What would you be - michiganirish - 10:57am 9/23/24
                      • You need to stay in yr lane. oldirish know s more about football than most on - ColeyO - 11:59am 9/23/24

      • Our luck with portal QBs has been pretty dismal. IMO, Coan was the best of the lot. Who - ColeyO - 5:07pm 9/22/24
        • This is the luck of 85%+ of teams going to the portal for a QB. It's not as shiny as it seems. [NT] - oldirish - 6:15pm 9/22/24
    • I have no confidence in him when he is in a long yardage passing situation. I wish I did [NT] - ColeyO - 3:21pm 9/22/24

    • Not sure the passes flagged for PI were on the money. Still, to be excited for his first downfield - pittsnyfan - 3:04pm 9/22/24
    • The ball was under thrown on those PI penalties. Receivers were reaching back to catch the pass. [NT] - ghostwriter - 3:00pm 9/22/24
      • Not the Mitch Evans ball. [NT] - Quest4twelve - 4:49pm 9/22/24
        • That was under a 20 yd. pass. [NT] - ghostwriter - 5:34pm 9/22/24
