Yeah and I got poo'd on for posting it. (Shrugs) I still think it's a good video.

Y’all are hella naive if you think Jeremy actually keeps up with his own boards.

3:42 are you crazy

Highly inaccurate? The ball was dead on Funchess hands, he just can't catch. You think a prime Steve Smith would have dropped that? poo DJ wouldn't even dropped that. Yeah he had to fall to get but it aint all the QB job to do everything. They need help too. This is why people say we have no receivers. Funchess another Gettleman fail here.

There isn't a whole lot to argue with PFF about in this video. Much of this we've covered quite extensively, particularly footwork. Besides the fact that Funchess has a laundry list of crucial drops. Even when Cam would put it right on the money for Devin, it was still a 50/50 ball most times.

But in terms of simply assessing the status of Newton's game currently, making declarations while only looking back on 1 out of 16 games, which we lost, that to me doesn't seem like a very good way to go about evaluating. You could make even the best QB's look like poo under that scenario.

Probably posted in the original thread, but literally the video loses a lot of validity when the guy can't seem to understand why an injured shoulder would be better, more accurate, and stronger in the 1st quarter than towards the end of the game. 

[Fright]

Booooo. Someone get the rope and hang the OP!!! Booooo

There’s a lot about his game that’s hard to understand. Some of it’s impossible to understand. And that’s fine. It’s OK not to feel the need to micro-quantify everything.

He’s a very dynamic individual, with a rare skill set hampered by occasional deficiencies. He’s a first down machine, extending drives more frequently than just about any player of his era. He’s got a rifle for an arm—when healthy—particularly in short windows. 

Those are all obvious takes, but there’s not a whole lot more to it. It takes 11 on every play to make it go.
