People throw around this "drop" term far too easily.

At the absolute most there were 2 drops against JSU. Dupre's very obvious one, and then Dupre's "drop" where the defender made a great play from behind to pull down his left hand.

Not every good throw that ends incomplete is a fricking drop. The Jeter throw on Etling's first attempt is a great example. Very nice play from the defender doesn't erase the good throw, but it isn't a drop either. Alternatively, not every ball that is caught is a good pass, although I don't recall any notable catches from this crew through the first two games.

If you think that drops only apply to perfectly thrown balls that hit the receiver in stride, we can agree to disagree. 4 of those incomplete passes were very catchable balls.
