And yet he continuously held the ball far longer than necessary looking for deep shots to Adams. And that was his other issue: trying to force feed Adams. He missed a sure TD to Lazard early, trying to stuff it into Adams, and then tried to force another ball to Adams late, when he could've run for another TD. Or at least gotten inside the 5-yard line, which would've given them 4th-and-2 or so, and maybe LaFleur goes for it at that point.
Andy and Patrick will scheme and execute a gameplan that gets the ball out of Patrick's hands quickly. And they have two weeks to figure out how to get the ball downfield.

Yeah, I was just going to say... he looked very indecisive and slow in that game.
Opting to throw into double coverage instead of running for the TD is 3rd string QB bad.... plus a few times he didn't feel the pressure.
