    That's my hope as well, but Dak always threw a softer, more catchable ball. I know we blame Fred Ross for all those drops last year, but Fitz was throwing Kendall Graveman bowling ball, sinkers to him.

    Ask any former high level catcher how easy those are to catch.

    Fitz is explosive but lacks the feel and touch for consistency.

    Honestly bro, that's not true. I remember Dak trying to laser everything he had on passes. He hit that growth spurt in maturity when he was forced to play in 2013.


    Relf grew up a lot in 2011. It just didn't translate into more wins. He was vastly improved from 09' to 11'. Dak did too in his years as starter. Nick is far more talented than they are. I believe Dan will have Fitz ready. Don't buy into what was seen at the scrimmage game. There was a lot more to that than a "poor performance" sometimes the perception is NOT reality. But I still love you bro

    Agree. One of my most pleasant surprises during Dak's first year as a pro was how much he had improved on his touch and accuracy on short passes.
