With five games won in a row to add to his two winning starts in New England, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo has been nothing short of impressive. There’s not a doubt in my mind he’ll hit a low point in his career—all quarterbacks do—once defenses get more film on him, but it’s all about how he adjusts to those adjustments.
Well, this is one such example that defenses will write down. Cornerback Richard Sherman spoke to the press during mandatory minicamp, and provided an example of what just what defenses may look for when making the book on Garoppolo, Patrick Holloway of Ninersnation reports.
“You just need to read him—hand off ball; he’s letting it go. You have to be decisive when you make those decisions. If he takes his hand off the ball and doesn’t throw it, I think he’ll throw guys off, but when he takes his hand off the ball, you’ve got to be ready to break. ”
The good news is—this is something easily coachable and right now, Garoppolo isn’t really worried about tells in his game. He’s worried about diagnosing the playbook and learning all the lingo.
