Yeah, I thought he threw that ball a little too hard too. But it was placed in a great spot, Baldwon should have been able to come up with it. I like quick passes to guys like Washington and Tate, butjust because the patriots use a lot of quick outs doesn't mean we should. I will agree in the respect that Bevell's play calling yesterday seemed shaky at best.
He did initially grasp it, but it was thrown so hard that he never had possession all the way to the ground as the defender helped dislodge it. Had the ball not rolled away, I feel certain that it would have been overruled as a catch because he never had control.
I don't agree with you saying it was a rookie pass though, the anticipation he threw that ball with was not something you see from rookies. I just think his adrenaline was pumping and he got too much on the throw.
That's what I originally meant by a 'rookie throw' : misjudging the required touch. It takes time to adjust to the speed of the NFL game.
The standard against whom Wilson is compared for size - Brees - had a rough Sunday as well. He looked overwhelmed by the size of the 'Skins linemen.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but what I think ole Sprhawk is yapping about is when the QB gets the ball and takes one step, looks to the flats and throws to WR. I'm not sure but I think that's some sort of a screen. Seem them a lot in college. RG3 had a few that were successful but I think most of those get sniffed out pretty quick in the NFL.
Peyton Manning got an 71 yd. TD Sunday on just such a play when he read the blitz.

I was watching the Pats game, Brady threw quickouts almost every throw.
Brady wears fur boots , should Wilson get fur boots ?
