Jaguars OC Dirk Koetter noted that rookie QB Blaine Gabbert was "a half-step slower" in Saturday's scrimmage than he's been in practices.
It's no surprise that Gabbert looks much better without defensive pressure. He completed just 12-of-27 passes for 76 yards and a TD in the scrimmage compared to Luke McCown's 13-of-18 for 136 yards and a TD. We don't want to overstate the importance of a scrimmage, but Gabbert has to show major improvement if he's going to give David Garrard a run for the starting job.
