it looks like having a savvy route runner with great hands lurking around the flat and running scramble drills has upped Jimmy's game considerably.
With a trusted receiver open for a safe check down, Jimmy seems like he isn't forcing the ball into tight coverage in the middle of field as often.
I think this is real CMC effect on our offense
I wonder why Panthers QB's weren't having similar passing success since they had the "CMC effect" as well.
Look I'm not discrediting CMC, he's great and is the ideal outlet. But it's not like Jimmy is throwing the majority of his passes to him.
They didn't have the CMC effect because they simply weren't as good as Jimmy.
just watch the game closely, Jimmy always seems to have one eye on CMC
if CMC draws coverage, say more then Wilson or Mostert did, he looks away and some else is open, like on the Kittle score that came off schedule.
Jimmy was better with Trent Taylor until the injury. having a crafty route runner that always seems to be open for a check down makes any QB better.
CMC is one of the greatest check down options I've ever seen, and I believe that comfort zone has made Jimmy less likely to force the ball into tight coverage and will lead to fewer picks
