Initial Thoughts on jets game

[Djfan]

Looking at the coaches film views I think that Howard was just late seeing it both times. Both times 14 was open and both times the window closed in a hurry. The first INT looked really bad with 30 open on the outside.
I'm not sure if this is just a young QB in need of reps or if he hasn't got the vision, anticipation and/or arm for the tight window throws needed in the NFL.

I've heard a few NFL QBs talk about learning the speed of the pro game. Maybe he is just getting that?

I liked Howard coming out of OSU and had a solid second-round pick on him; he was the 4th-best QB on my big board, just a tick behind Kyle McCord and about 10-12 spots behind Cam Ward, with Jaxson Dart being by far the best. What I liked about him was his floor. I think he has the motivation and work ethic to stick around the NFL a decade as a backup and that's his floor imo. His ceiling is probably a starter maybe a a top 10 passer year here and there. But I don't see HOF traits either. He doesn't have a rocket arm like Favre, or run a 4.3 forty like Vick, or have pin point accuracy like Brees or have a cognitive abilities of Manning. But what I did like about him is his fire and moxy for football.

Allar, I did not like because I saw a lot of Penn state games and I saw him slow to process and almost like he was scared to zip it in there. I also saw his mechanics turn to complete trash the second a little pressure got to him or he got off his rhythm first read. Then I watched the combine. He showed improved mechanics which I can only attribute to some positional coaching outside of Franklin he so desperately needed and I saw him be extremely accurate especially with his deep ball. And my tune changed. In fact, I thought he had a shot to sneak into the first round and had him going to the Steelers in round two. He was the second-best. QB on my board this year. So, I personally like the quarterbacks we picked. But so far Allar has shown elite arm strength and pin point accuracy. I would love to see him get the start vs the Bills to see where he is in his development vs Howard.

I have no idea what route he was supposed to run. All I know is that he looked open on both but the throw arrived too late. Where the blame lies is up to the coaches.

I do -- I'll explain it to you:

A mesh concept is when you have two short routes nearly crossing underneath. It's supposed to create a natural type of pick when the defenders are passing each other. You can see that Bernard ran his route perfectly, flattening out in more or less a straight line across the field, whereas Wilson rounds off his pattern, drifts, and ends up way deeper than he should be. If he runs the route correctly, the safety does not have time to jump it. But Howard also has to recognize and read this, so there is blame to go around.
