Gus said that the reason Duke didn't get the ball thrown his way was precisely because JJ was making the reads and that he was double covered. My feeling is that Grantham was disguising coverages and JJ was getting frustrated and started trying to force it.

I don't know how much he was disguising stuff, but he basically had a deep cover 3 going all game. There was over the top help on everything because we're were only running 2 maybe 3 guys on routes so they could play under stuff, assuming the over the top help was there.

The WR targets and receptions were spread around... He only had 11 completions, but they were to 6 different players... and no one had more than 3 (Duke and Louis)... I don't think he was determining pre-snap who he would be targeting... but I have no clue how many completions he had to guys who weren't his primary read.

Obviously, he needs to play better... but this was his first time with this kind of pressure on him... things will start to slow down for him as we gets more starts under his belt.

He was making reads, otherwise you do not hold the ball. The game must slow down for him and he must process quicker. I still think with game experience that will improve. He better or the offense will be limited.
