I think I disagree. Especially looking at the last few replay angles it sure looks like the defender is lurking right there. I understand what you are saying and low and inside would greatly have reduced the chance of it being picked.
However I think considering the risk vs reward there I don't think it was a great spot to go. [Reply]
i did notice, generally, even when mahomes was off, his targets were in better position to make catches where as smith placed his receivers in 'bad' situations. :-) [Reply]
