I just hope we keep improving at WR. Had a lot of (game changing) drops last season. Some were TA's fault, but there were a lot that were just flat out dropped by the WR's.

OK, help me out, how can a dropped pass be the QB's fault? I understand a poorly thrown ball that is not an easy catch but you got me on blaming TA on a WR dropping balls???

Well you kind of answered your own question. Even though the ball hits the WR's hands (should be caught), it's a tough catch and dropped because it was a poorly thrown ball.

Again, maybe just a couple of throws I'd place some blame on TA even though it hit a WR right in their hands. Example, WR is only 4-6 yards out, but TA throws it hard as he possibly can for no reason. Tough to catch a heater being so close. I'm not blaming TA for good thrown balls that are dropped by WR's.

EDIT: I see that you were probably responding to RRP.

Tough for me to agree here. See Northwestern. I think our WRs put slip'em on their gloves instead of stick'em.
Northwestern was so bad. Very frustrating. Same with the first half of the Miami game. So many drops that shouldn't have happened on 2nd and 3rd down.

Coach Williams is easily one of the top coaches on the staff, and I hope we continue to do what we need to keep him. Of all the positions groups on the team, his group has the most swag. Savage Professionalism.

He can't catch the ball for them. Even in the NFL you still see plenty of times where a guy takes his eyes off the ball because he's trying to worry about YAC before he's got the C.

Not sure I've ever seen 10 dropped balls in an NFL game, but I agree with what you're saying. I don't put much (if any) blame on Coach W. That's the players not focusing or prepared to play (which I guess could partly fall on the coaches).
