What are the excuses for Jameis being mediocre?

[Jutt]

The playcalling all season has been vanilla and predictable. Koetter refuses to play to his strengths.

With that being said, he has missed a good amount of throws and forces a lot of passes, but its hard to get in a rhythm when your coach is all over the place with the calls.

 

[DropTopDoc]

I think it's easy to say it's all him, but his line was not good, and I don't think the offense is a good fit, nor is it playing to his strengths, just because they added d jackson does not equal instant success

Furthermore Winston is light years better than Watson

 

[NoHalfWay]

What the fukk? I get being reactionary, looking at scoreboards and posting, but the defense lost this game in the 1st quarte.

He threw a total of 11 passes before he got hurt. I really don't understand why this thread was made.

You can tell dudes want to see Cam and Jameis fail so badly on the coli

But are quick to stan Andrew Luck, Matt Stafford, or Mariota

I wonder why?

 

[Champ_KW]

Its not just this game and you guys know this

Well what is it? The two straight 4k yard seasons? Let the kid progress and stop doing this microwave generation thing where everything has to be great instantly. He's not perfect by any means, but the overreaction to how "bad" he is is ridiculous.

Add their new one, Derek Carr to the mix.

Watson is already better than him

To be fair, this is Whatson's first season. When teams get more tape and an entire offseason to gameplan for him, it will get tougher. The true test will be year 2 and 3 for Watson.

Jameis looks good some days and awful others. Wouldn't give up on him though.

I don’t even like Jameis and know he ain’t been that bad too deserve a damn thread to be made about him. I’ll take him over Andy Dalton any day of the week. It’s way worse QBs in this league to even single out Winston

 

[DCMC]

He's missed some throws, but he has 7 tds & only 3 picks so far

 

[NoHalfWay]

Its not just this game and you guys know this

Y'all ain't say shyt last season when he took us on a 5 game win streak while going up to Arrowhead and smacked up the 7-2 Chiefs and Seattle's defense the week after.

Y'all ain't say shyt when he lead the Bucs to their first winning record in forever in his second year.

Y'all do you tho

Watson is already better than him

Cuz Jameis Winston inherited a 9-7 team

I think nikkas forget that as a rookie and 2nd year QB Winston had to go through the gaunlet of 2 MVP lead Super Bowl bound teams in his division.

Deshaun is that guy, but he plays in the AFC South

 

[FS4LFE]

He went to FSU

 

[Flex Grossman]

Coming off 3 straight 300 + yard games and he got hurt on the first drive

 

[BrehWyatt]

He isn't mediocre.

He isn't superbly accurate and is aggressive when it comes to forcing passes -- granted, he can make every throw in the book -- into situations where being safe would be wiser.

But he is far from mediocre. Kid's a future all-pro. He just has a a risk-taker streak in him that needs to be reined in on occasion.

 

[tjax03]

No excuses.. He can't read defenses

U have a good running back two good receivers and good tight end in brate and u to garbage to get them the ball

If there is one thing he can do is he knows how to read defenses.

Now his accuracy is another thing.

Cam is a qb that cant read a defense. Mariota is another

 

[NoHalfWay]

Add their new one, Derek Carr to the mix.

I would throw Carr in there but I really like him as a QB.

That dude may be injury prone tho

 

[Lucky_Lefty]

I've been critical of Jameis, but Koetter is a college coach that looks overwhelmed in the NFL.

He sucked in college too
