      too many throws high and/or wobbling. even the TD to parks was high.

      A lot of drops

      I’m sure he’s a bit nervous, but other than not running on that 4th down play, he’s played well. 5 or 6 drops or even balls that are catchable but not caught. The defense had been pretty annoying though.

        add in 3 drops of potential picks by Utah State in that first half

          On the PI, sorry, I didn’t see 3 should be picks…. I think you’re nitpicking.

            The PI was one. Don’t remember the defender that bobbled and dropped one in the first quarter. And the pass to Kuithe in the end zone should have been picked.

              Disagree.

                can we at least agree on the bad pick he just threw or is that a figment of my imagination also?

                  It was a pick and not the best throw, but it also went right through Brant’s hands too. I can be critical of Wilson’s decisions like to not run on that 4th down, but you’re counting a PI as a potential pick where Money could’ve literally made the catch for a big play coming back for the ball… How can you write that obvious PI as a potential pick?

                    The ball to Parks was well underthrown and the defender did not make a good play on the ball, thus PI. Parks was not turning that throw into a TD. Which is why I call it a bad throw and potential pick. Just like I would not blame Snowden’s pick on Barnes even though it will show up in his stats.

                      I’m not saying he was turning that into a td. He could’ve easily come back to the ball which I agree was underthrown and caught it for a 30 yard gain versus the 15 yard PI. The td throw I was referring to was Ryan’s catch. That wasn’t a good throw, it was a great catch.

                      Also the Kuithe example you’re using which was in the endzone, was batted down on a good play. Ball could’ve or should’ve been thrown harder, but I think he was over-gripping it. Still, a pbu isn’t what I would say is a great potential pick. Difference of opinion.

                        Now who’s nitpicking? The Kuithe throw is a TD if Wilson doesn’t take two extra steps and throw late. The defender got both hands on the ball and Kuithe was able to get a hand in there to knock it loose. How is that not a potential pick?

                        I don’t have a problem with the Ryan TD. That may be the most difficult throw in football.

                        We have different definitions of potential picks. It was a good defensive play, but the likelihood of that ending up in a pick? I mean, how many of those type of things does Cam face or other QBs during a game? It seems nitpicky to me.

                  For instance, the td throw wasn’t a great one, but it was a great catch.

                  If a receiver can get their hands on it they should catch it. I know the saying is cliche and not totally true, but man, kuithe definitely could’ve caught that and I’m not gonna blame Issac for a pass that was ever so slightly high.

      He also uses his receivers more than Cam does, which I appreciate.

      Idk maybe a qb coach would know. Got the analytics guy though. Seemed to be helping Wilson a lot.

      I don’t know if Wilson’s overgripping but it’s also not my business what the young man gets uo to in his private time.
