Quick didnt drop the that was just good defense

[lockdnram21]

just trying to clarify some say he dropped the long pass the defender got his hand in and knocked the ball away as it was hitting his hands.

I thought that was some pretty good defense on that play. I don't think Quick dropped it.

i know everybody doesnt think he dropped it but i was reading some threads and people said he dropped

 

[jrry32]

He didn't drop it, still, I was disappointed that he didn't catch it.

it wasnt his fault so how can you be disapointed if he would have moved the defenders hand it would have been offensive pi

Because big time receivers make big time plays. He could have used his body better, he could have been more physical and he could have made the difficult catch.

I know it's not routine but we grabbed the guy because of his size and athleticism expecting he'd develop into the type of WR that TO, Fitzgerald, Alshon Jeffery, Dez Bryant, AJ Green, etc. were/are. And in order to be that type of WR, Quick's gotta start making the difficult plays.

if you say so you just dont like the kid i dont think none of the receivers you named would have made the catch if anything it was clemens fault . Quick had him beat by like 2 steps by the time the ball made it there the db put his hand in there in perfect time to swat it away as it hit quicks hands. ive seen every receiver ou named miss catches like that.

I disagree. Watch the replay and you may see that Quick turns his head way too early which allows the defender to react in plenty of time to cover him up. If he waits a tick before disclosing the ball's coming, he has a touch more space and could probably of made the catch. The throw was pretty damn good, probably a foot short of perfect.

like i told the other guy you just dont like quick so your down on him cause of his past play but your opinion is your opinion and i respect even if i dont agree

I've seen them miss catches like that too. It happens. I've also seen them make catches like that. And that's where the difference lies. Examples?

(Dez Bryant's catch is #1)

I have nothing against Quick. I am sorry if my expectations are too high but with Quick's talent and size, I expect him to be the type of guy that will make some of these ridiculous catches. So yes, I am disappointed that he didn't come up with the ball.

It was Clemens's fault. But he's a poor deep ball thrower. That's one of the issues you have with him. He could have hit Quick in stride, that all said, it was still a catchable ball. Very difficult catch but one I hope Quick is capable of making.

 

[lockdnram21]

i guess if you say so i didnt see your example where did you go to see it. maybe if clemens actually targeted quick more he could get comfortable and make ths big catches. i think hes in there just to be a blocker.

Which example? Each video is an example of a WR making a difficult catch with the defenders hand or arm in their trying to jar it loose.

I've never said I don't like Quick. I haven't liked his play MOST of the time. He has flashed here and there and may very well blossom next season but right now, he's a #3, not close to the #1 we were led to believe we were getting when he was drafted ahead of Alshon Jeffery which I didn't want in the draft. And I know most WRs take a couple of seasons to translate their skills to the NFL game but as of late, a few have really come on earlier than tradition dictates, just not Quick.

 

[lockdnram21]

i cant see them on my screen at all it just says example where do i go on internet to see example? is it on youtube?

I agree with jrry here and did at the time, the DB had his hand in front of Quick long enough Quick had time to counter and high point IMO Pettis would have tried harder

I wish we could put Pettis's concentration, hands and route running on Brian Quick's body

A better receiver catches that ball. Sure it's a tough catch but a catch that warrants Quick to come down with. I don't think Quick played the ball well. IMHO, hes very upgradable and is pushing "bubble status" going into next season. Not saying he'll be cut next year, but the should know what they have in him after next season. Hopefully he breaks out sooner than later. His "young receiver" beings to wear off in year 3.

 

[mr.stlouis]

I'm dissappointed... Lol

2014 will be Quick's time to put up or shut up. Right now he certainly doesn't look anything like the 33rd pick in the draft. I'm sure we all hope it all comes together for him next year. It could happen. But, we can't rely on it happening. He may very well be no better than a backup WR. There would be no talk about drafting a WR in the 1st round if Quick performed up to what we expected.

I like Quick and think he gets too much grief for where he was drafted. And I agree that the way that play worked out he did not drop the pass. However, I also agree with Jrry I was disappointed he did not make a better play on the ball. He waited for the ball to come to him as if he was uncovered. With a defender on him that tight he needed to gather himself and leap to try and catch the ball at the highest point he could reach. It would have been a great play but that is the kind of guy we need on the outside running those routes.
