He was watching the All-22 version.
The NFL Films view from Inside the NFL shows it clearly.
Flutter ball and it hung up. He could have thrown it more on a line for sure....and not of frozen rope
Here it is--- at 20:30
Not the important thing.
That ball was thrown on the basis of seeing at the last second that the Patz had blown the coverage. It would be impossible to predict in advance that the Patz would blow that coverage and Cooks would be that wide open.
It's a TD except that the Patz DB made an extraordinary play. So extraordinary in fact that BB himself gawked over it in post-game interviews.
If any account leaves those things out, I'm not interested.
The account you like acts as if Goff was standing there watching Cooks as if he would be open and then did not make the right kind of pass. Sorry, my friend...bs. That was a sudden improvised throw that came out of nowhere once it became clear that the coverage had broken. If that had not happened Goff would not even be looking at Cooks.
...
You can separate the timing of the release and whatever happened up until the release... from the actual mechanics of the throw.
No matter what happened before the release and no matter what happened before he pulled the trigger, when he finally released it, it was a poor throw.
Just a tighter spiral gets it there a spit second sooner.
Disagree.
He threw a TD and the Patz DB made an extraordinary play recognizing the broken coverage and hustling 20 yards over to make the play.
I don't know what your parameters are for a "poor throw" but hitting the WR in the hands in the endzone on a sudden flash of recognition play like that doesn't qualify for me.
If you would have said something like "not a perfect throw," maybe. But then "not a perfect throw" would emphasize the nitpicky part of all this too much. Plus then we could pull up some vids of Warner throws that were not perfect either.
Poor? A
poor throw is what Kyle Boller would have done.
