I couldn't agree more. Tua checked down over and over and over... and clearly looked hesitant to throw the ball unless his guy was wide open--which they usually were not.tuas timidness was one of my biggest criticisms, i said that he was playing a scared, minimize mistakes style of qb
flores needs to make sure tua stays aggressive, that game manager style of qb'ing we saw last year isnt going to cut it...tua needs to let it rip and realize an int 40 yards down the field isnt the end of the world, take chances down the field, go for the big play, trust players who can go up and get it like gesicki and parker, those guys dont need to be and most likely arent going to be wide open before you need to pull the trigger...
i believe tua has the talent to be successful but ill say it again he just seemed to be hesistant and petrified to make a mistake, if he wants to succeed he needs to trust his receivers and keep his foot on the gas for 4 quarters....im tired of conservative offenses that require 15 play drives to get in field goal range, i want an explosive offense that attacks nonstop
But, for a rookie, this isn't necessarily a bad thing and I believe he'll get over it.
