Yo, Mattyk72...I don't think Jim Zorn is thinking that Brennan is locking in on his WR's big time. Zorn said after the game:
"More than his throws, what I was pleased with is how he was looking to the right guy when he was backpedaling," said Zorn, a former NFL quarterback. "He knew the plays, knew the routes. He should feel very good about his performance."
Regarding the WR's being wide open, it was that way the whole game. I do think Brennan threaded a couple of passes in there, against pretty tight coverage.
I've seen Brennan play live a dozen times or so and, at least I think, it is difficult to conclude that he locks on receivers. I do think he goes through progressions pretty quickly. He just doesn't turn his head to it is obvious to everybody. That's my view anyway.
I respect your view, too.
I just want to score points and win. Hail to the Redskins!
