We all saw Doctson play week after week so I don't know why we should let some stats geek turn this indicator of Doctson's poor play as a WR into a criticism of KC as a QB.
There was a well respected scouting guy a couple weeks ago saying something similar (I'll have to find it and repost it), that what he saw on tape was that Alex Smith is better at hitting his receivers in stride and throwing them open, which suggests that Cousins was pled effective at this skill. This stat would seem to reflect his breakdown of film. It's something worth considering.
