Thing is, with that, it's pretty much impossible to have any kind of spiral when that happens. The ball usually flutters. And conversely, a QB can have control and still flutter the ball downfield a fair distance.
Basically, a flutter ball doesn't tell a big story while a spiral does, but distance doesn't really tell a big story either way.
That was my very 1st thought, the ball came out on a spiral. Anyway it's over and done with.
