[QUOTE="FanOfTheGame, post: 257415, member: 1798"] One line of this article stood out to me: "In fact, quarterbacks are often praised for giving receivers extra time to get open." I don't think the issue is [I]just[/I] how long Rodgers holds on to the ball. Also at issue is how many times Rodgers has had an open receiver but either did not see him or maybe had his mind made up to throw to a particular receiver. I don't know how many times this was the case, but I have seen it more than a handful of times. And some of those times the receiver (in some instances more than one receiver) was available within 3 seconds. I know it still sounds like the same issue, holding on to the ball too long, but I think it is different. I'm not talking about Rodgers' holding on to the ball because he doesn't have an open man and taking the sack instead of throwing it out of bounds. I'm talking about those times when Rodgers has an open man (or two) and still does not get it to them even where the sack occurs under 4 seconds. If quarterbacks are often praised for giving receivers extra time to get open, shouldn't their decisions be questioned when they don't go to a receiver who is open and instead takes the sack? In other words, if the offensive line isn't getting the praise for giving the quarterback the ability to give the receivers extra time to get open, why should the offensive line be faulted when the quarterback fails to go an open receiver?
