I want to be excited, but I know this team always lets me down.
No lol, his throwing motion is perfectly fine, it just looks weird cuz its a lefty. I encourage anyone here who disagrees to go watch the vid of him throwing flipped around to a righty and see if you say the same. Its def a lower release point (which is not a problem) but its very much on par with most other qbs in the league. The one thing Mike has with his throwing motion thats really really unique is his insanely fast release, which is something that I havent seen from many other Qbs in the league rn.
It needed fixing?
The lower half, maybe. He had a bad habit in college of not pointing his feet in the direction of the throw. Looks like that’s cleaned up a bit.
Looks better here, but he doesn’t have a defender in his face.
He’s left handed? That gives me flashbacks!
Wearing throwbacks this week?
It’s a slow motion with no zip on it. Practically a warm up. I’m sure his motion will look the same when he’s full speed with zip.
His throwing motion isnt and has never been the problem. His feet however, are a different story. Ill wait to see how he plays before I judge any of that.
It looks really good. In pre draft, his motion looked more reliant on the arm. His base looks solid here
Why does the banner in the back say NFC West Champions?
