He is running from left to right and you want him throwing it over his "right shoulder?" I think I understand what you are meaning on where to deliver the ball to make it an easier catch but Anderson and Nuss were on the same page with how Nuss threw it so that wouldn't be the complaint. If you had to nitpick the throw it would be not taking Zavion underneath on the easier throw otherwise the throw and catch was an elite result so theres no need to critique the throw.

I'm not nitpicking the throw. I am nitpicking the people who are saying it was the perfect throw. It wasn't. Great play, though!

LOL

it was certainly not a perfect throw, which would have been caught over the shoulder where the defender could not have gotten within two feet of it

Also, it was single coverage right in front of the QB who had about 90 minutes to throw the ball.

This is nitpicking the throw. Don't crawfish. You are just wrong and afraid to admit it. An "over the shoulder" throw would have more likely led to an incomplete pass or an interception than the throw that Nuss made.

And the "90 minutes to throw the ball" is stupid. Less than 2 seconds from snap to throw.
