Re: VIP trip to the OTA's Thursday, last voluntary camp day 2010

Hey great post, thanks a lot for this. We got more from this one post than Jason Reid has been able to give us all offseason!

To your eye, did it look like McNabb and Rex were getting the ball out in a timely fashion? Or were they pulling a Jason Campbell where they wait until the player's out of his break to throw the ball? Because that to me always indicates how well a QB understands the offense.

Hey thanks guys. No problem glad to share the day.

Both Rex/McNabb where quick to delivery, no time standing around thinking it was all timing/scheme. Kyle was very involved he knows exactly what he wants and made it clear that was understood when a mistake was made.

Rex clearly has been in Kyles system for some time and was noticeably very sharp in what Kyle wants. Very quick to deliver and very accurate. I was very pleasantly surprised in his abilities, he looked the sharper of the two for the first part of the day.

McNabb was a fuzz off, no hesitation, just wasn't hitting early on with a high percentage of completions (Accuracy: behind the WR that where in full stride, over the Top, a little long) but as the day progressed he improved and even scrambled a bit on design then would zip the ball down field. His long ball got honed in, when he got on track his long ball comes out pretty quick and hit the mark. As well as when they had goal line drills his fade and slant throws about perfect. Kelly can play great jump ball with outstanding hands, hope we see it in the regular season.

All in all both these guys and what they are being asked to do on this day did well and it appeared to come natural. No big long over thinking, waiting for the perfect pass to develop process involved. So there where no Jason Campbells on the field at least with Rex and McNabb. Which was great to see. McNabb is well on his way to fully understanding and working hard to get this Offense down. Rex was a suprise, he has clearly worked hard with Kyle and can excute this Offense pretty effectively now.

Nice detail, thanks.

I'm happy to hear McNabb is not hesitating at this point. I'm not at all surprised that he's not connecting consistently with guys, but at least he's getting the ball out on time. If you don't practice getting it out in a timely fashion, you'll never get the timing down with the WRs (Campbell, are you listening??!). Might as well fling it around in practice, that's your chance to get the timing right.

I'd still expect some missed connections, even come the regular season. This entire offense is new after all (QB, coaches, scheme, linemen, etc.). But it's just so nice to hear that the same old awful problem with Campbell is out of here. I don't know what it was, but that dude just couldn't do things fast enough.
