There was no reason to expect this kind of drop off with his arm/decision making.
This is more what I meant.
His arm never looked this bad and labored before. It’s compounded by the decision making.
Almost to a point that it’s hard to tell if some of these are “bad decisions” or “not having the arm to put the ball where he wants anymore”.
Either way, the season can still be productive without him. Marshall could be the answer for the next few seasons. [Reply]

At least you have a guy who will be here a few more years and get better.
You can always run packages for JD that are impossible to defend that way and run the fucking ball like you should be doing in the first place. [Reply]
Back problems can ruin careers. If he doesn’t have the lower body strength anymore or is it is a chronic issue he is needing to nurse now the change can be as dramatic as 2012 David Wright to 2015 World Series David Wright. [Reply]
