The Redskins Are Close

As far as I'm concerned that's on Jim Zorn.

But you have don't believe me, go over to NFL.com and see how many quarterbacks have completions over 40 yards this year.

Perhaps not but JC really cannot hit people in stride. I know this comparison is unfair but watch Brees throw down the field. He's making connections with people in stride. Now that is best in the league doing it but players like Romo and Eli Manning are doing timing routes down the field that are connecting with people in stirde.

JC has not been able to connect more than 15+ yards down the field with anybody in stride. The Randle El leaping grab to me is not in stride, by the way.

All of JC's throws are to receivers who have dropped into a zone and are basically in a stationary spot on the field. Now whether that is because of Zorn's lack of trust or whatever, who knows, but JC's stride connections are simply not happening.
