and thats why Zim wants him playing. I love Case, I do but we saw both sides of Case today and it almost cost us a damn good win. I have zero doubt Teddy couldnt make any of the big throws today, zero. Same for Sam. But man you cant throw the game away or be ineffective in major pressure situations 

Case you have done great, but you cant throw these games away

2 bad throws?  you should say only 2 of his bad throws were picked off.  There were at least 2 more that should/could have been picks.  I am sliding back and forth on when is the right time to make the switch,  but lets not pretend that Cases play is beyond scrutiny because we were pretty lucky he was playing against a poor defense yesterday or i think it would have been much uglier.

he made most of the throws he had to yesterday and led the team out of the gate like I want to see from our QB,  but i still am not seeing the improvement in his flaws that I would like to see.   He is still starring down his targets and floating to many passes for my tastes.  When he is on... he is on,  but a good defense will exploit these issues IMO.

with that said... I wont be calling for his replacement this week at least, and I dont like the idea of him having to look over his shoulder during a game.  Zim needs to make him understand that its not going to be a few bad throws that prompt the change unless its just a complete mess like Sam at Chicago.  Its not fair to Case and its not fair to Teddy to send him into a shitty situation where the defense is already on the offensive due to score.   If Case starts against the rams.. i expect him to finish if healthy.



When I have to start defending the almosts or should haves, I give up. 38 pts. and 400 yards of offense is good football by ANY measure. If you want to scrutinize Case for that go right ahead. Where is your scrutiny of our defense? A much bigger problem than Case yesterday. 


not in a thread discussing QB play.


Nice deflection.
