I thought it was too. But when your QB needs your WR to stand still in order to get a pass on target, he won't get you very far.
He was always throwing behind WR's. Like, you need to LEAD them with your throws. He just gunned it at them where they were, is why his passes were always short / intermediate. You could see it in his OU highlights, too. Just stood there in the pocket like a statue while his all-world OL protected him like a wall in the good ol' spread O's of the Big 12.
don't get me wrong,
@gogoat1 , I think, had he not been seriously injured
twice X-( , he'd have been a good QB for us. Maybe it was the crappy WR's we had at the time--and crappier O-Line, smh.
But my memories of him are filled with passes thrown
behind WR's on crossing / slant routes. We are spoiled by 9 in this regard, except for occasional under-throws to Tutu.
I still wince thinking of that #$@%@#$ browns DL bearing his full weight on 8's knees in that pre-season game. Like he was
trying to re-injure him. Grrrrr.
