Lost in all the 4th quarter craziness was the throw JB made on the 2pt try

Jefferswag 3.0 “had the wind knocked out of him”

To say for certain he would have scored by running is just silly. He had a defender eyeing him from just inside the end zone. I do think he should have ran. But the point of this thread was to marvel at the pass. I also can’t stop thinking about it. Was a beauty. Between two defenders hit the numbers. Hard catch. Even harder throw.

Being accurate with a pass isn't the only objective - you also need to be on time. And that throw was waaay late. If Burrow anticipates Jefferson's move to the inside and throws it sooner, the safety would have had no impact on the play.

He stared him down big time on that particular throw. Giles was way more open.
