I'm ok with the fast balls...this league is such that you can't afford to throw any old pass into traffic...these guys just need to catch the damn ball

[Arky]

Loss of data.....

[chuck]

That was an incredible catch. When Mallett released it I thought he was throwing the ball away.

[Big Texas]

That's why you need a QB with a strong arm...there's no way Hoyer makes that throw...and by the way "knock on wood" NO TURNOVERS...thus far...

If our secondary continues to be piss poor Luck is gonna destroy us again this year
