Uh yeah.  Touchbacks instead of starting drives from inside/around the 10 is the best case. Worst case is a turnover and gimme TD for the other team that will happen sooner or later. 

We’re winning, Stop whining. We’re 8-1, stop whining.

Can sark for the love of god stop with the screens. Him and Quinn are costing us points 

That's the only play Quinn can consistently execute. We've tried throwing more than 10 yards down the field a few times and the ball is just nowhere in the zip code of the receiver.

So many stupid people in this thread playing the blame Quinn game as usual that we’re not uup by 20 points. 

Well, if the game is mostly designed for a passing attack, and if the QB has made several underthrows to open receivers and hasn't been close on anything deep, and if the QB can't scramble, and if his lack of deep throwing threat makes us dependent on short dinky routes, then how is it not on Ewers that we aren't up another 10 points at this point? 

Ewers hit a couple of guys wide open downfield.  His other long completions were on a slight underthrow that was tipped into our receiver's hands, and a tight end screen. 

I mean, this has been a very pedestrian showing by Ewers so far today.  You could very well be right that Manning won't make us better in the second half, but you have to admit Ewers has not been sharp at all.

We were hitting explosive plays like mad when Arch was playing. Those vanished when Quinn came back. It's not some grand mystery..this offense is hamstrung with Quinn at QB. He too frequently just doesn't get it done.
