As much as Burrow was dealing, Volson almost got him killed on Boyds 1 handed catch. What a great throw under duress as well.
Yet as incredible as that one handed catch was by Boyd, thinking that back shoulder catch he made was just as good.
Yeah that was bad. Then some receiver or back like puts a move on the DT to get by him and get to his spot instead of realizing maybe I should block this guy trying to smash Joe...
It's the tear drop on the run, across his body, over defenders, to Mixon that does it for me. I didn't even notice that at game speed but that window is so tight and there's no margin for error. Heck, he's not even throwing across his body- he's running backwards and doing it. That was a great observation by jT. For that matter, I don't know if he can even see Mixon in real time. He's just trusting his instincts, loading up and dropping the football into a spot before Mixon comes into view. And he does it so effortlessly. It's such a gorgeous pass... running backwards notwithstanding haha
Joey B is probably the most accurate QB in the NFL. Im not talking about Completion percentage but touch and ball placement. I loved that JT brought up golfing saying Burrow used a 7 iron. That is exactly how we described him in the draft process he brings the right club to the hole.
