    I'm going to say that the first fowl that we would genetically identify as a chicken was hatched from an egg.

    We are 3-0, Harris has yet to turn the ball over and has shown steady improvement with each game......can't you be patient with our 19 year old?

    I agree, but I think he is showing better awareness. He knows it is more important not to make game-changing mistakes than to take uncalculated risks. The more good decisions he makes, the more decisions he will be given.

    They called at least 21 pass plays and he had at least 50 yards of good passes dropped too. I'd say they gave him a good amount of opportunities and yes we all need patience. The guys is improving, managing the game pretty well and would have completed more than 50% of his passes without the drops. Diarse dropped two in a row.

    The fade to Dupree was beautiful.

    The completion to Dural wasn't a good pass but Dural made a great move to come back for the ball and a great catch.

    He underthrew the deep ball to Dural by about a yard, but I'd call it a good pass just not a great one. Much better to under throw it by a yard than over throw it.

    It was thrown late, too.

    He also needs to learn how to not throw the ball 100 mph. His receivers really let him down yesterday, but he didn't do them any favors by burning the fingerprints off their hands. If he learns to put some touch on his throws, he'll be completing 80% of his passes.

    He needs to quit throwing it high in the middle of the field. He's gonna get his receivers killed. Not to mention tipped balls.

    If they can't catch they don't need to be in the game. Diarse dropped what? 3? I get why he stays in the guy can block.
