He would have to get it to the RB for a completion first.
Stuff like this:
That play looks about exactly like Tom Brady's first pass this preseason. Working a 1 on 1 to a covered WR and overthrows it out of bounds. Cant watch one play and say this is why a kid can't get it done. Especially when a player and WR have spent 14 practices installing and learning a brand new playbook. Is Armstrong ever going to be an efficient pro caliber QB, No, but he can work and become a solid throwing college QB who can run a little bit.Stuff like this:
This is the kind of stuff that pisses me off, and I'm a huge fan of Tommy. But I like Tommy because he seems like a guy that can do it all. So it's hard to blame the offensive line or anybody else on a play like this when Tommy has time, he has a few other options, he could extend the play a bit with his feet if he wanted, but instead he just slings one directly to a well covered guy for no reason what so ever.
I get irate a bit about stuff like this because this is back yard football kind of stuff. There's just no reason for these kinds of things. I get this is the spring game, but we've seen it before in games plenty. As much as I like Tommy, if he doesn't begin to become that guy that is loose out there and uses his ability to make plays, then even I don't see a reason for him to be out there.
Decision making is priority number 1. I think the offensive line will improve, the coaching is improved in my opinion, and I think this offense will be a better situation for Tommy to be successful, but I don't want to watch any more of this crap. Point blank, end of story.

Wow. 2 full years of possibly being Tommy's biggest defender on this board, undone by one guys take that I've judged Tommy's abilities all on one play. Unbelievable. Especially when you consider that I even said in my post that this wasn't the "one play" I was basing this off of, it was just an easy example.That play looks about exactly like Tom Brady's first pass this preseason.

True has literally been Tommy's biggest fan on the board this offseason. So for him to say "yeah this area is a problem" I would listen.That play looks about exactly like Tom Brady's first pass this preseason.
