While he flashed the occasional brilliant throw down the stretch, more often than not, he was inaccurate, showed a lack of pocket poise, and was turnover prone—often holding the football for far too entirely long. He needs to start playing with confidence/decisiveness again, regain his lost mechanics and erase acquired bad habits, and start checking down to his underneath routes (*hitting his crossing routes consistently also wouldn’t hurt*).

I read a good article a few months ago re Colts coaching staff being fed up with Wentz. That the game plan was for him to make quicker decisions, taking what the D gave him, utilize the run and he did do that in the middle part of the season and the staff was relieved but then he started going back to bad habits of holding the ball

Our entire offensive strategy is crossing routes and designed check downs.
Guess we get to see if that is Turner's philosophy or just the way he had to call games given the QB limitations.
