The longest pass completion by Sims was 15 yards, we can not survive with a dink & dunk passing attack. I think his lack of arm strength & "touch" will be what gets him benched. The D is a bigger concern for me. We have to be more physical & put pressure on the QB.
I'm not sure why everyone thinks Sims doesn't have good arm strength. I know we didn't see him attempt many long throws except for the one that Jones dropped. I have noticed that on some of the intermediate throws that they have some sizzle. I'm not on either the Sims or Coker bandwagon. I've just been wondering why I keep hearing this.
"Haters gonna hate."
Folks keep using the 1-5 completions over 15 yards, but they conveniently ignore the drops. Easy to beech about QB play when you decide before the season that Sims isn't good enough.
Maybe we could do better, maybe Coker is injured, maybe Coker hasn't learned the system... but apparently Sims is the best we've got now. He's wearing Crimson; I'm cheering for him. I'm hoping we don't always need a QB who can scramble from the rush, hoping Sims continues to improve, and hoping Coker will pan out.
Until then, RAH RAH.
