Kelce was the correct read there, and it's where Pat was looking to throw. He stepped up in the pocket which threw off the timing of the throw, then he pulled it down. Thats how i see it at least. [Reply]

Don't really see a reason for missing so badly on the Kelce pass. Probably, as you said, just got too much adrenaline pumping on that one and let it get away.

Yeah, one of those deals where he's just supposed to hit the top of his drop, plant, and let it go outside but the OLB got pressure on him and threw off the timing. I hate blocking schemes that rely on a TE to block a defender 1 on 1. Looks like he was then thinking of letting it go deep 1 on 1 with Watkins but thought better of it and the hesitation cost him the play. [Reply]

Nah, it went high because he was peeking to his right and saw he was going to get hit thus his release point was high instead of driving through his throw. If he would have driven through his throw he would have completed it however he would have been clocked in the face. He chose his rib protector as opposed to his face mask.:-) [Reply]

It doesn't look like it's wobbling to me, not in the gif, and the trajectory didn't appear to be affected/changed from the point of release. The gif is a little bit choppy but I didn't notice anything off during the broadcast and none of the announcers mentioned anything either. [Reply]

Probably told to not take any big hits/avoid contact and just stick to the script. [Reply]

Oh it's definitely wobbling. You can notice it mid air and towards the end. Definitely tipped. [Reply]
