Throughout the entirety of training camp, Case Keenum was sharp as a tack in terms of his accuracy on the field.
In the first two preseason games, however, the signal-caller had more errant throws than he had in all of the 15 practices during camp.
“I thought I was a little unsettled in the pocket at times, caused a few balls to sail when we had a few guys open,” Keenum admitted after practice as he reminisced on the second preseason game. “Those balls I said I wanted back. Looking back, my feet weren’t as good as they normally are in the pocket.”
On Monday, his feet were back to his practice form, putting the ball right where it needed to be on a consistent basis. As he does, he connected with tight ends, backs and receivers over the middle of the field in tight windows.
He also had no problem on deep balls. In the games, Keenum missed on sideline throws 10-20 yards downfield. Monday, he was money, dropping the ball right in the receiver’s bucket.
One of those perfectly placed sideline throws was to his favorite target on the day, tight end Jake Butt.

So, basically, he's looked GREAT in practices, but when the real games start and he's playing against real NFL competition he has been subpar?
I can see why this would make you smile . . . . . . .
