man Raye as been dogging Shaun since he has been here....it seems he gets defensive when people ask him about Shaun and the passing game.
I hope his pride/stubbornness doesn't continue this season...
I mean read this....wtf?

Given Shaun Hill's 76.7 percent completion percentage in the fourth quarter, would you be more inclined to let him pass the ball late in the game?
JR: What you're missing is this - he has been able to do that because we've run the ball against eight man fronts. That's the reason his completion percentage has been what it is.
he acts like we have successfully run against teams consistently......as if they are being caught off guard with our decision to pass on 3rd down, after running it on 1st and 2nd.
its funny but when Shaun has these high completion percentages, is when the Defense KNOWS we have to pass..... its usually in the 4th qtr when we have let the opposing team get back in the game or they have just took the lead..... then all the sudden we have to start passing.....and guess what RAYE, THEY KNOW THIS... so it is even more remarkable that we are able to pass our way downfield when they know we have to pass.
its not like we have a great running game going right now where the playaction is leaving people wide open.... usually there are defenders in the back field by the time Shaun turns around because we bunch our formations and the opposition defense is
allowed to run blitz us......and if its not a run well guess what they are still in the back field right in front of Shaun's face most of the time.
if they are going to run blitz us, I don't know why we don't run 3 wide formations with Vernon as the slot receiver....first we are spreading out the defense and we could tell what they are really trying to do by how they line up......and we can still run out of this formation......or maybe a quick slat to Vernon after an audible from Shaun.
I really hope Raye is BSing and just trying to throw everyone off.....but he needs to stop disrespecting and discrediting Shaun, just because he feels the media is calling him out on the obvious.
