Wednesday Practice

Any ball that hits a receiver's hand is a well-thrown ball in my book.

I think most all of our A-backs could stand to improve their pass-catching skills.

Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing Orwin Smith catch a couple of tunnel screens and trucking a few safeties.

I used to think the same, infact, I had a saying when playing receiver back in the day, "If you can touch it, you can catch it." That's a nice motivational ploy, but its not really realistic. There's plenty of balls you can get a finger on if you go all out but have no realistic chance of actually catching. Drew Brees says if its not on the numbers its not a well thrown ball. I tend to agree with Drew.

If you have a minute and want to see unbelievable throwing accuracy, check this out:

I'm hoping Chris Jackson is a big improvement in this area. Unfortunately we won't see him until the fall.
