I agree. I was at the game and haven't watched the replay yet, but Dural should have caught the ball thrown on the deep post in the end zone. That was a beautiful throw. Dupre also made a piss poor play on the fade in the end zone. Instead of stopping and high pointing the ball, he kept running and allowed the DB to make a play on the ball. I also thought Dupre could have caught the ball in the back of the end zone. Dural gave a pretty shitty effort on the hitch thrown to the sideline. The worst throw in that video was the under thrown deep ball to Diarse. With Beckham and Landry Harris has 200+ yards and at least 2 TDs on Saturday. The dropoff at the WR position is just as big, if not bigger than the dropoff at QB since the 2013 season.


Dural endzone pass was late and pretty well contended. It could have been caught though.

I think on both Dupre plays in the endzone he did not show great control. I think he lost his balance on the fade and he didn't sit in the zone...both throws by Harris were where they needed to be.

Best throw of the night was to Jeter. Any of the deep balls (aka our staple in the passing game) could have gone better. If you consider the fact that one of the completions was to Guice on the jet sweep, you realize Harris was 3-14 without that. All of the other 3 completions went for 20+ yards. Honestly, throwing 20+ yard passes is not a high percentage for anyone. It's designed to hurt a team commuting 8 guys in the box. We haven't hurt a lot of teams with it yet. Harris' deep ball has not been good enough to warrant running this scheme. I don't believe it's all on him, but that is the go to pass in the scheme and we have hit it once to a contested, interfered with Dural against Syracuse. I would call Harris 1 for 7 on those deep vertical routes, but drew 3 PIs and I counted the int since those were the routes they were running. That still only makes him 3 for 8 on other throws. As noted by the World, wrs could have played better to help Harris and we should be talking about 6 or 7 for 15. My major problem is still the scheme and our inability to execute the staple/purpose, which is the isolated go or post routes.
