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


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.

No I don't think it has to be perfect. I think that 2nd ball to Dupre that everyone harps on was a good defensive play but even if I concede it was a drop, it was still a poor throw.

The pass to Jeter to start was a great throw, a nice defensive play, and it wasn't a drop. The Jeter pass was catchable, but not a drop. The first Malachi pass was assuredly a drop. The pass to Dupre after the INT may have been a drop and it was catchable. That's 3. Calling the ball to Guice a catchable ball is a stretch IMO.

Like many other offenses, the QB could help the WRs out sometimes and the WRs should bail out the QB sometimes. I look forward to a little more of both in the immediate future.
