    In anycase Herberts arm comes in handy plenty but it dont hurt to know when to rifle one and to give the recievers a better chance on others. However i dont recall this many drops last year and Cook has had many of them while replacing Henry.

    The opposing DBs dont seem to have a problem catching them.

    Now speaking of Mac Jones, they may have a low drop rate this year but you cant argue 6 SB wins with Brady. Think id rather have those with more drops sprinkled in.
    That’s because Cook has hands of stone. Saints fans warned us about this guy and Telesco still decided to replace a Pro Bowl caliber TE Hunter Henry with this garbage.

    And I think Brady has pretty decent touch on his passes. He doesn’t throw rockets every single time.
    Tom Telesco’s Results in 9 years as Chargers GM:

    - 69-74 record
    - 0 division titles in 9 yrs as GM
    - Worst record among all active GMs with same tenure
    - 6th worst winning percentage among all active GMs overall
    - 2 playoff wins despite elite QB all 9 yrs
    - Team still has the same weaknesses (Oline and run defense) that it had when hired as GM in 2013
    - Consistently puts together horrible depth, expects starters to never miss games

      I don't recall Saints fans warning us.

      I saw him play plenty with the Raiders. He had good seasons there.

      He don't look the same. Time to move on from him. He will be 35 next season.

        Agree, whatever gas he had in the tank was spent in the first 5 weeks or so. He is so broke now he can't even pay attention, too often he is just wandering around not looking back while Herbert is scrambling looking for the open man.

        Not resigning HH is really going to bite us next year. We have a lot of solid guys at TE but no one that ready to break out next season.

          Nobody wants to talk about it.

          Sneed was already out. You wanna tell me they didn't cheat? Of course, they cheated.

            but regarding passes deflected at the LOS
            That's mainly because he's giving it away with his eyes
            look at the replays
            he'll stare down that first option (I believe the playcall is pre determined to go to the quick first or second option)
            I've seen JH do a great job reading post snap and looking defenders off, we need to forget the quick stuff, or lessen it
            Maybe it's because he can see over line and isn't worried about a throwing lane.

            Other QBs have a need to find throwing lanes within pocket because they can't throw over top of defense in their face.

            Is there a stat for opportunities to get a paw up to compare with actual deflection.

            Maybe Thor is giving them many more chances by ignoring those tiny humans.
            Who has it better than us?

              Regarding team testing cheating. Maybe coaches like Belichick and Reid have the kind of respect where their players do their upmost to be available for games, knowing it helps their chances.

                  I see the Colts have placed Wentz on the Covid list. They may be able to cover that up with their running game. We'd be in bad shape if Herbert came down with it.

                      The Patriots added 3 players to the COVID list today, following the 2 they added yesterday. Damn, Bill isn't cheating enough! And the Chiefs had 13 players on their list last week. Damn Andy is losing respect fast!

                          A lot of team’s quarterbacks not on teams Covid list. Draw your own conclusions. Probably best we move on before an admin steps in with a reminder. Broncos Chargers preseason game coming up, for the works.
