If a receiver really has to extend himself to get to a poorly thrown ball, there's not much he can do once he's caught it.


And this is the root of the problem, especially on the third down throws. They either fall down trying to catch it, or at least try and make a play.

I think one of the announcers had it right last night when they said that every player is trying to make a statement play, so they can stay on the field. The worst of them all is Jefferson. He is so concerned with pulling off that one play that will quiet his critics, he is not relaxing and just playing football. He has fallen so far, only consistent playing will make anyone stand up and cheer for him. Unfortunately, it's usually not consistent playmaking that makes the highlight reels.

Seriously, I had a thought when I started my little rant...
