Today's Morning Practice Summary

Edwards had an interception in team work on an underneath pass for Roscoe Parrish. Edwards took too long to pull the trigger and veteran linebacker Andra Davis read his eyes and made the pickoff.

I've said before and I'll say it again: I have no problem with his check downs - positive plays are always good in my book. My problem is his indecisiveness, even just a slight bit, negates all his generally correct decision and accuracy. And the problem magnifies in crowded area, like the middle of the field against 3-4.

I think that's how opposing defense has been attacking him the last year and a half: trying to confuse him just enough so he hesitates a bit. If Trent wants to be a legit NFL starter, he needs to break through in this area.

We're not going to dissect every INT thrown in camp, are we? He's still learning a new offense, of course there is going to be a period of adjustment and hesitation.

Remember Davis intercepted Edwards twice in that MNF (vs the Browns) two years ago. The 2nd one in that game was very similar to the sound of this one.

it's early, but it's similiar to the past issues. they have to fix this or address it. this is what the practices are for.

He's going to throw picks in practice.

Fitzpatrick had one Yesterday.

They all had them in OTAs.

I think you are reading in to this a little much.

Picks only happen three ways. You either throw it early, throw it late, or not on target.

That doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

Unfortunately, that's exactly what is going to happen all through training camp.

I agree totally. Continuing to have the same problem (staring-down receivers, making decisions too late, etc.) is not a good sign.

Hopefully practicing against a 3-4 will finally teach him how to read a 3-4.

I was just about to say, at least he finally gets to practice against a 3-4 D now. That should only help since the whole division runs a 3-4.

with our luck, the pats are going to switch to 4-3 vs. bills and we're screwed.

Re: Today's Morning Practice Summary

all i am saying is that...yes this is practice. but if he's making mistakes that he made before, the new staff has to find the solutions to it.

it's fine he threw the interception on day 2. however, they need to get to the root of the problem and not say, "oh its just one".

We all know he needs to be coached up

and that can be a partial reason for this INT.. he is still adjusting to seeing a 3-4 in practice... in pads
