I was at the game and watched all of it.

Uiagalelei, is a big time player, with an NFL arm. He is strong, and has very good technique.

Last week, he threw the ball where it could be caught by some very talented WRs - who did make a series of excellent catches.

I don't think anyone would seriously compare Garrett to Uiagalelei.

Shrader plays hard and our receivers did drop a number of bad, but catchable passes.

Too often, however, Garrett Shrader throws into the ground or nowhere near the receiver.

And when the field is shortened - in the red zone - his inaccuracy presents a real problem - see the red zone INT he threw last week.

I suspect that part of the reason Babers kicked the FG was because of concern that even if the Orange got the first down, Garrett would be forced to throw in a congested secondary - and would throw another INT.

So, don't get me wrong. I like the guy - I like his size and strength and speed. I think the team has shown that it can move the ball with him at QB.

But, in the long term we need a major upgrade at that position. .
