MT is a lot like Jared Goff. Or vice versa. Both QBs excel when they are pre-programmed with the answer:
The defense is gonna be in this look in response to our formation. Your first read is here. Second read here. If those don't work, take off.
Anytime MT has to do "more" than that or the picture at the snap doesn't look like what they practiced leading up to the game -- he kinda locks up.
Then, to just top it all off, either something glitches out mechanically or this is just who he is, his accuracy varies wildly from down to down. Sometimes he can just drop absolute dimes and jaws. But others...he just sprays passes all over the place. Examples being the deep ball down the right sideline that when about 12 yards out of bounds, the back shoulder to DJ that he threw to the front shoulder, the crosser near the goalline that he threw about 3 yards behind Claypool who caught it anyways, and the flare out to Najee that he spiked into the ground. None of these were the result of undue pressure or MT having to scramble and reset his feet. He just stood there and dinked it up.
This is now his 5th year as a starter and his 6th year in the league. If he has not mastered the fundamentals of his position, he likely isn't going to anytime soon.
well said!...He is what he is at this point!
