Dustin Hopkins Sucks Post Game Thread

I, honestly, wasnt too thrilled with haskins last game. I noticed he was still throwing off his back foot constantly when he had space to set. its like rg3's happy foot issue. just something built into him that may not be able to be coached out. I think the numbers were better, and it looked better...but i still saw the same things that he has shown before. he just ended up on the right side of it this time. But it seems like the sort of odds of flipping a coin.

His mechanics are not pretty for sure. But overall accuracy was still way better IMO.

I agree. You can’t come out and play like trash the first half as well as throw 2 absolutely terrible ints.

Did we really see any growth? Not here, seemed like the same guy

I agree on the 2 INTs being really bad. But watching the All 22 he was way better than I felt watching live.

Just listen to Cooley's breakdown of his game. (From 31:00)

I wouldn't be surprised if it looks better in that regard. I just remember saying to my brother while watching "wow...flushed out on the run, and he's still throwing off his back foot and not planting."
Almost like he's trying to emulate a madden game, or looking for the hilight reel play.
He may have looked more accurate, but I'm still concerned that it's too fine of a line between looking more accurate and throwing 4 picks while missing receivers all game.
