The TD to Fehoko was a blown coverage, yes, but the pass was a laser.
The long corner throw to Wedington on 2nd and 19 for 18 yards, on the run, was the best I've seen in a long time. And he was drilling other passes too. Not to be overlooked was the touch and timing on the screen passes.
Costello is a good QB. Mills looks like a first round draft pick. Really fluid athlete, quick release, quick feet, great arm, with accuracy, zip and touch. Want to see him have to play against some zone defenses, to see how he reads them, but he seems to have everything you want in a QB. This team could have a lot more upside will Mills at QB.
agree with the above, but Mills also does the little things that make plays work better. good ball fakes on play action, same on PRO, the shoulder pump on the Fehoko TD throw, etc. fun to watch. many of these elements have been absent for years.
hopefully it is a tweak. Shaw in post-game played down the injury, basically he said he could have played but they decided to sit him for precautionary reasons.
