Same here. He's not getting enough opportunities in the joker role so he might as well be under center. When he has had the opportunity to pass it has had velocity behind it. I actually think those "off speed" passes that Siemian has been throwing has led to several of those drops we have seen. It's like the receiver is anticipating the ball to already be there when it hasn't yet arrived.

Don't get the criticism for a weak-arm as I find Taysom had more heat than Jameis; now, does Taysom's placement and reads need work? Absolutely.

But that would come with more snaps, experience...
