yup, he's the epitome of 50/50 when he throws, you never know if it's going to be perfect and online, or if he'll be

its 100% a throwing mechanic, however, it puts the ball away from defenders too

I wondered about this. On the first down after the hold, he almost throws a pick

I wonder if the cold weather exacerbates Jake's accuracy issues.
