I remember this was one of the criticisms of Brady Quinn

And for good reason. You can't really find an example of an established NFL QB who's also chiseled.

Even the elite QBs will do some physical prep work (see Peyton below), but I agree with you, you can only spend a certain amount of time preparing and every minute spent lifting in the gym is a minute that's not spent preparing in some other way that's more important for a QB to be preparing.

taysom has it all in front of him and he knows what he needs to do to

5/27/15 2:10pm

He definitely needs to lift - at least to maintain what he has

CoopDizz

All QBs at the D1 or NFL level will put time into weight training

Thrill

I only know what I see. He is ripped, and his mechanics need a lot of work.

SandYFan

5/27/15 2:17pm

Would you mind breaking down his throwing motion and footwork for us?

srey

5/27/15 2:21pm

Sure. His throwing motion is too long, and he sidearms it a bit, especially if

SandYFan

Generic answer. Really break it down. I don't think you have a clue what you're

srey

5/27/15 2:40pm

And your post implied he HAS no flaws in his passing. One of us is wrong.

SandYFan

5/27/15 2:35pm

I have not commented on his throwing motion at all.

srey

5/27/15 2:36pm

Nice chatting with you.

SandYFan

5/27/15 2:37pm

You can be dismissive, but I never did comment on Hill's throwing motion, much

srey

5/27/15 2:41pm

used to pat the ball 2 or 3 times before passing it

Hill's two biggest issues throwing (has improved a lot in both):

Shimmy

5/27/15 8:14pm

He is ripped because he works out frequently like all D1/pro athletes.

Thrill

5/27/15 2:23pm

No way. All he does is lift. He never throws.

molodyets

not really. i think that you may have missed steve young's comments this

Very true. I remember Young saying this... and he was very emphatic about it.

Accipiter

5/27/15 3:37pm

Tom Brady definitely works out. A lot.

5/27/15 8:45pm

that's not "working out". that's keeping in shape. those are two entirely

5/27/15 10:36pm

All QBs do not try to look like LBs. There's a huge difference between

southernfriedcougar

5/27/15 5:37pm

why do you think the two are mutually exclusive?

nashty

5/27/15 2:18pm

Because I have yet to see him have a super impressive passing day.

SandYFan

5/27/15 2:20pm

And there we have some fine CB logic.

kccougar

5/27/15 2:21pm

Then you missed a game or two last year.

Lol UConn. Way to shred UConn.

SandYFan

5/27/15 2:26pm

as impressive as any MWC or WAC teams the alleged passing greats at BYU shredded

nashty

5/27/15 2:30pm

John Beck vs. TCU in 2005 or 2006. Any days like those?

SandYFan

5/27/15 2:31pm

The 2006 TCU game and Boise St 2013 game are pretty similar

5/27/15 2:39pm

Except for how TCU was an elite defense in all of CFB and BSU never was.

SandYFan

5/27/15 3:04pm

You can't just cherry pick games then

5/27/15 3:32pm

yes...and beck can't touch some things taysom has done on the ground...next...

nashty

5/27/15 2:41pm

Lol no one is arguing that Taysom isn't an elite runner. Try again.

SandYFan

5/27/15 3:04pm

and no one's arguing taysom can't get better in passing game either...try again

nashty

Your reading comprehension needs some serious work.

Has Sheide ever heard of Tim Tebow?

How will being the strongest player help throwing accuracy and reading coverage

Who cares. Get him out of the weight room. He has more important things to

CoopDizz

forgive our heisman candidate QB, who also happens to be the most explosive

nashty

Yeah, that's exactly what we all want - for him to spend zero time lifting
