It doesn't matter at all if you're throwing an outside pass to the pylon with the safety hanging back deep. QBs don't always need to look off the safety. On this play it made zero difference.
Stare down is the term du jour around here... Nothing inherently wrong with staring down a pass catcher though, it's just a thing people say. There he was watching to make sure the window would open and it did... and then Morris just dropped it.
I'm only nervous because I know that if we lose this one the rest of the games won't even matter. It's been a long time since I felt that way about the Bills at the end of November. I just want the hope to continue.
Amazing what a new coach with a real personality can inject into a moribund team.
Disclaimer for mods: This post is NOT about the Bills. It has NOTHING to do with Sean McDermott's fate here. I am merely commenting on the Las Vegas Raiders.
It's just the Shanahan scheme. By far the best offensive scheme in football right now. Bobby Slowik is in my top 3 for Bills head coaches next year. I don't care if he's young and a little experienced, his offense just works.
I don't care what anyone says, Goff is still a below average QB. Ben Johnson has hid him as long as possible. But eventually his deficiencies are what they are.
