What are your thoughts on Bazelak's tendency to throw high? It looks to me that he doesn't step into his left leg and keeps his weight back on his high throws. Wasn't sure if he had any left knee issues that keeps him from transferring his weight forward, or if it's habit. He needs to work on that, or interceptions could be an issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In regards to what "Connor" needs to do. 100% ... and he undoubtedly missed some throws. But... when you get pressure right in your face (I know this for sure happened on 2 throws in the 2nd half)... the exact effect of that is a QB that can't do anything of things you mentioned. "Stepping into a throw" as you mentioned. Its the beauty of football, right? OL has to do their job first QB has to do his job next WR has to finish the play and do his job. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, it's easy to say step into a throw when you're not the one with pressure in your face. I tore my left acl my freshman year of high school, and stepping into throws, especially under pressure, took awhile. Transferring your weight and extending your leg takes trust and confidence. Just wasn't sure if he had any issues since that seems to happen to "Connor" more than most. With his moxy and intangibles, I'll take a few high throws. That guy is a gamer! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being a qb always gave me an extra step by recognizing what the offense was doing. Glad I played in the ironman days, but no way I could call offensive and defensive plays with the complexities of today's offenses and defenses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoyeCowbell Posted September 10, 2022 Report Share Posted September 10, 2022 Drove up to the mountains for a little lake fun.

Seeking6 Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 That feels like 2-3 pushes so far from Campbell. I don't want this game to be a long one but I really need to see some pitching and catching from QB to WR's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
