Reading through these comments - do people honestly believe TD is ONLY looking for Jackson? I'm not saying he isn't his 1st read the majority of the time (which he should be!), but to think TD is sitting back there and saying..."Nope, not gonna throw to Taj, not gonna throw to Nykeim etc" is asinine to me. He's constantly under duress and panicking. There is no way TD is "favoring" anyone.
He's simply not making the quick decisions we'd all like to see. I still think he's very talented, he just needs to let the game slow down, make his reads and get the ball out. When he actually throws the ball, good things tend to happen. Couple that with the fact he's likely out there playing with some sort of injury, it makes it that much harder. I saw him wincing in pain towards the end of the game and it appeared he was favoring his ribs/mid-section. I'm still all in on him. It's obvious he has talent, he just needs to harness it. And what we have behind him is nowhere close to what we get out of Tommy.
I thought we'd see better out of him this year, but given our shortcomings on the O-Line and the fact the staff seems to have put a bit of a leash on him running, it's making life more difficult. He has good straight line speed. I'd love to see him take off more and keep the defense honest. It would certainly help take the pressure off him. Hopefully we see better things Friday night.
