I saw the game they lost to, IIRC, Tampa, and he held the ball an absurdly long time on several sacks. No way you could blame the line for those, as it was never someone coming free and on him before he could do anything, but more like the line slowly, methodically creeping in on him until he was surrounded.

It really looked like he'd had drilled into his head "Don't throw an interception, don't throw an interception" so many times that he just ate the ball instead of taking *any* chance of throwing it.

And Florida Rob, I like you, but this

is funny.

TAmpa was the worse game he played last year just as the year before and I agree in those games he held the ball way too long. I know he has worked on it and do believe the consistency in the offensive line got him straig. For some reason Tampa inspite of being a dog awful team gave him and the Packers fits.

As far as his smarts, at least he doesn't throw boneheaded interceptions at the wrong time like Brint did. Watching him progress over the past three years has been fun. He really is smart and talented. Check out what he has done numbers wise the past two years and especially last year. If he stays healthy he will be better this year. Packers will help the Cowboys out this year when they go to philly the first game and send the Philly fans home unhappy.
