Granted, the Packers played no starters. But AR made accurate passes. Jones made more bad passes, IMO. His deep ball accuracy stinks.
Good call, that's another thing. From a lay perspective just watching videos... him lack of arm strength seems to make him compromise his mechanics due to the effort on deep balls. Otherwise, he's pretty accurate short to medium. Meanwhile, AR can flick his wrist the same on a 12-yard out as he does on a 40 yard bomb.

So, then you ask, would you rather miss some easy passes to Gidden like AR did today and hope he improves... or settle for Minshew-ball, hit all the short and medium stuff, but play against tighter coverage all the time because the defense doesn't fear you deep.
