Remember when Jamarcus used to throw too high and people said it was because he was so tall and the crown of the field caused it. I always thought it was funny, some of the bullshite excuses people came up with for why the qb doesn't get the job done.

They are getting knocked down because they are quick 3 step drops that put him.closer to the line of scrimmage. All opposing defenses know that we throw 80% short and they know they cannot get there with the pass rush. So the best way to defend this is to get their hands up.
Also, we throw 80% of our passes to the outside, so defenders can anticipate the throws in most cases. Typically, the Oline cut blocks for 3 step drops to get the defenders down and create throwing lanes. If the defenders are upright when the throw is made, then the chances of a batted pass are higher.
