Message: [QUOTE="721Comstock, post: 4010071, member: 5429"] Yeah, I was all like - it’s Tommy Time now!! Just like back in the day against FSU or UNC. And then Shrader & Peña had that HUGE scoring play, and I was like - OK, maybe we don’t need Tommy here after all. While it is absolutely, unequivocally, undeniably true that Tommy is a vastly superior thrower than Garrett will ever be; HOWEVER- what he’s not, is able to avoid a rush and extend a play, and then MAKE A PLAY. Shrader s ability to virtually always make the first rusher miss, AND then still keep the play alive and have a chance at positive yards, is what separates him from Tommy, like they are on opposite sides of the Grand Canyon. Being a good thrower is nearly irrelevant IF you can’t make a throw because pressure causes you to go into survival mode. [/QUOTE]
