SMDH The QB must be able to read defenses regardless of what the HC calls or the defense scheme is. It's a major part of playing QB at the NFL level.
I really believe Watson can be the best QB in the game. He is really clutch but I agree he has to 1. Learn to see the blitz. 2. Get rid of the ball quicker.
I did misread your post and I apologize. I do think BOB called a very good game seeing how Watson had a bad game and part of that was he throwing to WR's that have only been on the team for a month or less. Put that together with that stud Blue at RB running behind that OL and BOB's offense should've put up 40 instead of 29.
This is where I'm at, these things and improved OL/WR and a better RB than Blue and he could be great. That's quite a few holes to fill considering they could use a CB or two and an inside rusher wouldn't hurt either.
Sht hc but sure blame the rookie QB trying his best to compensate for sht play calls. Field goals majority of the game, but watson and Hopkins was clutch that last drive. Unless u gonna argue that it was bob plan all along, field goals all game and a td for the clinch. Pffft. Watson sucks at reading blitz and tries too hard to b a hero, but bob is hot garbage and isnt helping watson to make it any easier.
And miraculously he was doing that on the last scoring drive when they changed to a hurry up offense.
Hop was running routes where he was open quicker. And all that extra fake jet sweep went away. Everyone knew they were going to pass and yet he was finding receivers. With the Jets not blitzing you would think the receivers will be covered more.
Clearly Watson struggles with certain blitzes. That's why it's the coaches job to make those adjustments to help his very young quarterback.
Agreed, but a coach can only do so much. The best a coach can try to do is teach him where the blitz is coming from and where to go with the ball. Also a coach can teach him not to hold onto the ball so long and to throw the ball away. At some point the QB has to be held responsible for these things.
I really dont care about this year. Of course I'm rooting for them to win. Keeping Watson healthy this season is the thing I hope for the most. So far so good and fix the OL in the draft next season.
What mistakes did he make yesterday? He called a game where his team put up 29 points with a terrible OL, Blue as his RB and 2 WR's that have been with the team less than a month. That doesn't even speak to Watson making rookie mistakes at QB which is to be expected at this stage of his development. BTW, BOB did manage to call plays that got the ball in his best playmakers hands 10 times yesterday. I would say BOB had a really good day yesterday.
Dude he almost cost us the game. Calling that timeout was Bush league. The Jets ended up scoring and taking the lead. And then he plays for the FG verses putting a drive together to get the 1st down.
He called timeout because the defense was disjointed. (Who's fault was that?) I'm glad he called a TO since Darnold threw for the 1st down on 4th down. With a WR uncovered and confusion reigning over the defense that situation could've easily given the Jets a TD. It was the right move. They drove the ball down the field long enough to use up all of the time but one minute. They kicked a FG to go up seven. If the defense cant keep the Jets out of the EZ then they wouldn't have deserved to win anyways. IMHO
