That's a bad angle but what you don't see is Ryan Grant ran his route 2 yards short with RG3 at QB. Doesn't seem like a big deal but he would of been easily open and seen on the second level if he would of ran it right.

Not making excuses for RG3 though. He's thrown that 9 route million times on the money in his career. He could of still made a throw there. He went through the reads and hit his 3rd option though so there is that.

This is a play that every NFL team runs. Also that's just a short post. In one frame you can see KC clearly about to throw the ball just before Roberts makes his break. Griffin needs Grant to break open before he throws the ball. Just cut it loose with some anticipation and trust your wr.

This play really has nothing to do with 1st or 2nd team stuff. It's NFL QB 101. He ran this play or route a lot as a rookie but wasn't turning his back on the play action. He was making the fake off the pistol.

And as the article points out, it's fine and dandy that he still completed a pass, but he could have had a first down and instead put the Offense in yet another 3rd and long situation. The primary read was as open as you can ask for in the NFL.

Its actually not fine and dandy and the article is wrong for saying that. For example..

If read 1 is your primary after the play action. Although read 1 cuts the route short before play action was initiated.

What this does is allows the DB react to the route I which the throw would of been "late".

This is why when QBS throw INT or give up sacks etc. It's important to know that it's more of a team effort.

Not defending RG3 because he's obviously flawed but the article is incorrect if it's saying it's ok that the route was short.

Edit: Just noticed the article say it's ok because he still completed the pass. Not that the route was short
