lo country Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Could it also be an issue with the delivery of the ball by Martinez? Not mechanics, but the way the ball actually arrives ie some times nose up, nose down, velocity, trajectory etc...... I am sure that when you look at most QB's, they have a solid relationship with their receivers in regards to "chemistry" ie the QB and WR are on the same page. You even see drops when a new QB comes in during an NFL game. Announcers talk about them "throwing a different ball". If this leads to drops in the NFL, and every pass Martinez throws arrives as though another QB threw it, that could be an issue (not saying this is the case with Martinez, just a guess that each ball is thrown differently than the one before). That sounds par but they dropped tons of Z. Lee's passes in 2009 & 10 also. But as always, let's just blame Tmart. Carry on..... GBR!! Definitely not an attack on Martinez. If you think that is an attack, you must have missed the other threads! Just wondering if that could be an issue. Looking for any reason to explain why our guys drop, on average, 1 out of every 5 passes they should catch. Quote Link to comment
Chaddyboxer Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 we got a helluva bunch of new coaches, eh? I don't mind Rich Fischer at all....so far he's been a decent receivers coach. I think the WR's are improving in the blocking department from last year, BUT the dropping numbers have to get lowered! Quote Link to comment
TJ Alum Husker Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 would like to see us in comparison to the rest of the conference before I bury the receivers for having stone hands Quote Link to comment
