I had remembered Card missing open receivers -- both missing the fact that they are open (and thus not throwing at all) and seeing them open but throwing a bad pass. However, I had forgotten about his poor decision-making, or maybe it's low football IQ. At one point, he was scrambling, and if he had just run north/south he would have had a pretty easy 4th down conversion. But instead of running north/south, he inexplicably cut to the sideline and almost didn't make it to the marker. Also, when he scrambled, it's like he thought the play was already over and was just trying to minimize lost yards on the sack. He completely lost track of his receivers and the fact that he could still throw the ball for a gain. And way too many times, when we were on 3rd, he would check down or otherwise throw underneath. Especially against Arkansas, the probability of converting on Greg Davis passes was very low. Yet time and again, that's where he was putting the ball.
I don't doubt that he's improved in the off-season, but Card's biggest faults -- the mental ones -- are also the hardest to fix. Let's go, Ewers.
