I'm not saying it was easy, just that at the pro level, for the money our receivers are getting paid, those kinds of catches are expected, because guys at that level are paid to make plays far above the level of "easy".
If Mike Espy or even (bless his heart) Taylor Jacobs drops that ball, I can understand that. A starter should catch that more often than he drops it, and today the drops stats spoke for themselves.
Sure, Jason's touch on deep balls still needs some work, but I reject the idea that Jason put that ball in an uncatchable place. If we need receivers who can only catch "easy" throws, there are plenty of good high school receivers down here in Texas who can fill that requirement.
