[QUOTE="Deleted member 29907, post: 1418687"] It was his first game back and he had only played 1.5 to date and was late to the practice field. Tiiming is off clearly and he's tending to play iti safe - throw late, throw safe, run when in doubt. We also dropped 4 passes (one was a bad call) that could have yielded well over 100-150 extra yards to the pass side of the game. I'd say the Rutgers game was more : 'play it safe, run the ball well, and we get out of here with a win. Throw too much and risk too much, and we risk igniting the Rutgers team and fans and we could lose this thing' so I am not certain we showed what we would in a game where passing was more necessary.
