Appreciate ya stepping up for me though. I've never said a negative thing about Andy. I don't even think bringing this up is all that negative. It's a simple observation. It's one throw in one game that I didn't like.
This guy is getting his panties all bunched up over nothing. I've tried to end the debate in the best way possible. We can agree to disagree. But this guy wants to keep going and well, it's the interwebs, we all how know difficult it can be for even the most level headed of us to walk away. Hence, why I keep replying.
Watch all the replays. You can focus on the QB all you'd like, but the ball hit the CB on the right shoulder pad. Realistically, from the angles, that throw wouldve been on the "1" of AJ's numbers if it didn't hit the CBs pads.
If Dalton realized it was a blatant hold and threw it there, why is that a poor decision? Most QBs in this league will throw in the direction of their receiver if there is an obvious hold or defensive PI coming up on that DB. AJ being held on this play is as clear as day.
But that's aside the point. It was a good decision. You can't get blame Andy for releasing the ball before AJ was pulled back on his hook (still a lot of holding before). Which probably made the entire thing look like in your eyes a poor throw to the inside.
Its ok with having an opinion of that throw, but if you're going to dismiss the entire situation (QB, WR, DB, holding, placement, route, etc.) and you can't provide any valid point for your opinion other than the throw looked inside and you've seen pick 6s (which we all have) then your opinion is irrelevant.
