Is he indecisive - beyond normal care to avoid interceptions? hell no. He is on the run, either hitting receivers on the run or resetting and throwing or taking off and running with great success. It is bonehead STUPID to whine about the time before he releases the ball under the circumstances! Would you guys rather have him chuck it quick for an interception? Would you rather he just stood there and took a bunch of sacks?
We've got the greatest QB in the NFL, maybe in the history of the NFL, and incredibly, he gets criticized because he is playing behind a mediocre at best O Line, because his coach forces a run-first situation which wastes downs and puts pressure on him to pass in obvious passing situations. I say again, it's bonehead STUPID to criticize him.
