When I helped coach little league a few years ago we had a kid who was a pretty decent hitter. For some reason, about halfway through the season he became deathly afraid of the ball and he stopped swinging the bat. He seemed paralyzed in the batter's box. Finally, after a couple of games before he went to hit I pulled him aside and told him that I didn't care where the first pitch was he had to swing at the first pitch. The ball was way out of the strike zone but he swung anyway - and missed by a mile. The thing was, after that the spell was broken and he went back to swinging the bat.
Tim has to do the same thing, even if it results in a bad play. After last week he has to break the paralysis. He has to get over the fear of throwing the ball. I think that's what Elway is trying to do here. Just grip it and rip it and live with the results. That's how NFL QBs make their money.
