Fade routes are stupid. I hate them inside the 15 or so. Basically saying, we need you to blow this coverage badly to work.
No time to beat the jam or readjust for the QB.
I hate the out route throw to Jones there too. That throw has always kind of been one of Andy's bugaboos. Run the hard slant there or something.
I don't love fade routes myself, but I have a bigger issue with the execution than the play calls.
I've said it many times in the thread, if Andy makes a better read on any of the throws, this isn't even a conversation. Most of the people complaining are doing so because of the poor execution, yet they're taking it out on Hue.
If the 3rd pass was a TD and not an INT, who would still be complaining about the 3 straight passing plays? Maybe 1 or 2 people on the entire board would still have an issue, but everybody else wouldn't even be thinking about that specific drive's play calling choices. One of the league's top passing attacks should be throwing the ball inside the 10 yard line. Maybe next time we're in a close game in that situation, teams will be focused on the pass more than they should and Hill will take one in.
