I'm sure he did some things similar as Peyton made some REALLY bad decisions early in his rookie year. The light really didn't start going on until week 7 against the 9ers.

That's the horrible part of AR's game he really needs to fix. How is he constantly throwing balls so high? That wasn't even close unless Downs was like 12 feet high.

Damn AR, gotta make those layups

But manning never threw a five yard out to an open receiver all the way to the second row.

Holy fuck AR. That was horrible.

That's why it's concerning. Why haven't they fixed it if it's his footwork? Also, watching that throw on the replay, he pointed his front foot to the right spot (pointing at Downs), he just overthrew it.

Not to the second row. But he missed layups too.

Steichen should take a bit of heat for that play call. He knows he has a QB who is constantly missing, and in that situation you don't want an incomplete pass.

Either run via Taylor or Richardson there.

Where are the RPO’s on offense?

It is concerning that it looks like the coaching staff hasn't been working w/ him at all on his fundamentals, or AR just doesn't get it.
