Mile High Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 From the preseason games or the game on Sunday see how accurate he throws on the run. I have never seen a qb in all my years watching football throw a ball more accuate than he does on the run. Especially anything under 20 yards. It seems like a lost art. Maybe Fran the man or Stabler from back in the day. But, todays qb's really don't throw as accurate on the run as they used to. Mc Nabb and Vick can both run very well but they really aren't pin point when it comes to running and throwing. Maybe it's from his days at Tulane. Who knows... Just a thought.

scribo Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 I know a lot of people may disagree, but Vick can be pretty accurate on the run -- last night for example. Also, Mile High, I assume you remember that other #7 -- not Flutie -- Elway. All that said, I think J.P. has a shot at being something every special.

Dante Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Considering it was really his first game Im really encouraged. Seemed very comfortable back there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Well JP had alot of practice throwing on the run at Tulane! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Not to take away from JP; he had a superb game for a first outing, but did you ever see John Elway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mile High Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 Not to take away from JP; he had a superb game for a first outing, but did you ever see John Elway? 439036[/snapback] Elway was good on the run yes I agree with all of you totally. I would put him under the same category as Steve Young as far as throwing on the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVJ Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 I don't want to get bashed, but Flutie threw pretty dam good on the run. He would have to be good ...he had enough practice at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eSJayDee Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Actually, I think that was one of Kelly's greatest strengths was his accuracy on the move. There was also a somewhat weak armed QB that the 9ers had that was quite successful a large part due to throwing on the move. I like the looks of Losman throwing - good technique (usually), athletic, quick release. I haven't seen enough passes to make a reasonable assessment as to his accuracy either from the pocket or on the move yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 The thing I noticed is how effortlessly Losman throws the ball...... - When he decides he is going to throw it....its out of there - Watching him put touch on the ball for a screen pass brought tears to my eyes....haven't seen that for a while - How about the long pass to Evans.....the way he through that ball it was like he was trying to put a light "English" on it...whatever he did...it was great. We have not even seen the limits of his arm yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zamboni Man Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 I can't wait until he can get his throws a little more under control...he over threw a couple passes that would've been huge plays if they connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ_BillsFan Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 I was very surprised at the fact how he scrambled within the pocket. Usually QBs will run outside the tackles and look up field. I like how Losman seemed to know where the pass rushers were and stepped forward and pretty much ran around a small area in the pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His one sack resulted from a man (who was poorly blocked by S.Williams) catching him from behind. Granted, we/I haven't seen much of him, but possibly either due to running for his life at Tulane or some innate sense, he seems to have good pocket awareness.
