Small/collapsed pocket = too little time to make reads (especially when you lock onto read #1 forever (That IS a flaw in Jake's game) )and a resulting sack or forced attempt...

Jake has that wreckless gunslinger mentality, and it shows when he is forced to force things...

All you Panthers staff/players that lurk here on occasion, you should have listened to me here:

For this reason, I hope our passing offense features the Shotgun a little more, and has a few tweaks in the blocking schemes... I feel if Jake had just a LITTLE more time on plays where he makes his biggest mistakes, we wouldn't even be doubting him...

Hindsight is 20/20, so let's make some changes and push forward...

15-1, here we come!

I don't know,I noticed Jake was in the shotgun when he got run over by the incoming D linemen acting like he never saw them even though he was in the backfield already when he received the ball. 7 points scored by the Philly D. Again he was in the shotgun on another pick. Shotgun ain't the problem. Jake is.

I think Rodney Harrison was saying how Jake was acting like a rookie. He wasn't making reads that are basic after so many years.

To me that translate into NO confidence.

Pro Sports 80% confidence and 20% talent.

You can have all the talent but if you don't think you are good or better than the other guy...turn out the lights..the partys over..

How much time did he have on that play?

I'm not defending Jake by any means, but how do you let someone go through so easy?
