Green's arm strength becoming a question:

[HHURRICANE]

Green's arm strength becoming a question: Quarterback Trent Green's inconsistency, especially on downfield throws, has become routine. On Saturday, Green was behind his receivers on some passes and low on some others. The 14-year veteran ended practice with two throws never expected from a QB making several million dollars this season. He rolled right and threw a wobbly pass back to the middle of the wield that landed short of Az Hakim and, on the final play of the day, Green threw a short pass in the flat to Ronnie Brown that bounced before it got there.

Cleo Lemon was aggressive and accurate during a 7-on-7 passing drill Saturday, after averaging 4.7 yards per attempt at Kansas City. Lemon opted for a lot of check downs and swing passes against the Chiefs. On Saturday, he hit all four long throws in one series of 7-on-7, throwing down the middle of the field and into the back of the end zone to outperform Trent Green and John Beck.

Meadowlark seems to be winning the job.

Re: Green's arm strength becoming a question:

No surprise here really, I dont think many Dolphin fans thought that they were getting a strong armed QB when they made this deal.

The weaker our opposition the better for us.

Re: Green's arm strength becoming a question:

The coaches in San Diego were pretty high on Lemon before AJ Smith traded him away. I have a feeling Lemon will be Cameron's guy sooner than later.

Re: Green's arm strength becoming a question:

So that's why the Chiefs traded him away.

Re: Green's arm strength becoming a question:

what downfield throws? he went 4/7. 2 passes dropped and one behind a receiver. no downfield throws were made past 15 yards besides the pass over the middle to david martin, so you cannot assume that his downfield arm strength is poor, because he hasn't proven that it is or isn't yet.

Nice.

Re: Green's arm strength becoming a question:

Well I guess we're lucky to have Green's QB coach from KC in Terry Shea and a HC who has been able to get the most out of his QBs and play to their strengths in the past.

On the upside Beck's accuracy has been on the deep ball. experience in the pro's is his enemy right now for the rookie. Wow it's been a LONG time since I could talk about a Miami QB having accuracy on a deep ball.
