I could be bad wrong, but all TS has to do is get the ball out on time to run this offense.

In his very limited time last year, he showed he had command over the short routes.

For him it's a matter of getting in sync with the receivers and getting the ball to them on time, which JM could not consistently do, being late with almost every throw!

As I understand it, Grubb designs passing plays to be run with proper timing. With this receiving core, I think TS will eat all year long!

JM needed guys to be running in open spaces to get them the ball. I think the contrast will be huge with TS. I think we'll see some big passing plays that are simply the result of hitting a receiver in space on time! Such a novel concept!
I expect Simpson to look more like Mac Jones, than Jalen Milroe. Not saying as good as Mac, but look similar.

I think he's more of a hybrid between those two.

He'll be a better/more accurate passer than JM, especially on short, timing routes. But he's also a ton more mobile than Mac Jones. I mean, there is really no comparison in terms of their mobility. If TS can only get into the neighborhood of MJ's passing accuracy/ability, we will be a lot better than some critics think.

He’s got some of the early Career Mac ‘Dawg’ in him. Super Competitive by nature but has better self control now.

Talent wise I see AJ wrt to his passing ability but with the mobility and elusiveness of Manziel/Bryce.

If Ty plays within himself and has developed a short memory to move on from a bad play then I think he will have a Monster season.
