Very unfair and untrue! Hands are some of the best and biggest around! I know it, you know it, everybody knows it. And that's not all that's big!

IDOG_det Posted November 12, 2017 Author Share Posted November 12, 2017 16 minutes ago, jrry32 said: Or just work on his grip strength. Grip strength isn't the issue. His hands are smaller and he grips the ball wrong. He holds the ball too close to the middle of the ball and further down the seams, he needs to grip it closer to the nose of the football to account for his smaller hands. Goff grips the ball a little closer to the nose of the football, which is part of why he hasn't had too many issues. Matthew Stafford, for example, also has smaller-ish hands and has issues with fumbles at times because he's inconsistent with his grip on the ball. Darnold is trying to grip a wider part of the ball with smaller hands, it isn't going to work if he keeps that same grip. Guys like Russell Wilson can grip the ball however they want because their hand is large enough to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAW Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 These announcers like Mississippi State shortening the game when teams who have success vs Bama run a ton of plays and tire them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
