So what if he threw 3 INTs in a preseason game. It's what preseason is for. To get everything squared out, and to get the mistakes out, so you don't have them in the regular season.
Fiedler has had two full contact practices since his hip surgery. You think he'd be off. As we all know, a little off, can mean A LOT in the NFL, which was shown in the preseason game.
We so quickly forget about the Jay Fiedler who LED all QBs in the 4th quarter. The Jay Fiedler who tore it up in the 2nd half of the season, with a LESS QB friendly coordinator, an even more tattered offensive line, and a tenative runningback at his side.
We so quickly forget that he is a great clutch performer, and preseason is anything but the time needed for a clutch performance.
The throws Jay missed yesterday were throws he has made before. Wannstedt said so himself. He just does not have the timing with the receivers, or the reps needed to run an offense. Also remember, we had no gameplan, and Norv was just picking plays. Our offense will be better.
This is just preseason, we should not look so hard into it. If Jay does not start showing any improvement with the next 8 practices, then we could be worried. Until then, have faith in our Quarterback. He's a good one.
