Around the NFL Week 5

[FRPLG]

Escobar was NOT open. LB was in trail technique with a safety over the top and closing. The lb did have to make a good play to intercept it but he was covered. He WAS open for a split second when he made his break but that meant the ball had to hit him on his break...not 4 steps in. In the nfl if you throw to an open guy he won't be open by the time the ball gets there on that type of route. It was a mistake to throw it not because the RB was open underneathe but because it had little chance to succeed. It was a marginally better play than blindly chucking it like he did against us last year. Point is he shouldn't be making mistakes like that consistently like he does at this point in his career.
