It's a good thing he did then because the throw would have been even more behind him and totally uncatchable.

It caused him not to run to the right spot... what if the ball was where it was meant to be and the receiver ran it short and to the sideline side because of the stumble?

Where was the right spot since you have the playbook and can tell me?

 

Are you saying that even though he stumbled, Zay ran too fast to the wrong spot? Is that where you are going with this?

Clearly the reason the Bills lost is because a 2nd round rookie couldn't twist his body to make a tough catch. Not the crapfest offense all game.

 

Hey Sammy's gone! Now let's work on running Zay out of town!

Lol'ing at these posts.

 

If you hate someone enough, no matter what, you will always find blame in that person.

 

How'd you like that first half where we didnt even reach the 40?

 

Epically great QB play there. One of many "not to the 50" halves for good ol' TT.

Well if Zay doesn't stumble, and runs it out to where the Ball was thrown, it would have been right over his right shoulder... instead of over his left and over his head causing him to stretch back for it...

 

But I dig the condescension in your post Bang. Still a vitriolic loser like back on BBF

None of us are NFL receivers. It could have and should have been a better throw. But when it hits your hands, you catch it.

 

This. Whether the throw could have been better doesn't erase the fact that good NFL receivers have to make the tough catches, not just the ones that hit them perfectly in stride. It is the difference between winning and losing in this case

So just to be clear, you don't know where the correct spot is? You just know that it wasn't Tyrod's fault?

Wow what a surprise, the people who like Tyrod blame Zay more and people who don't blame Tyrod more. When literally none of us has a freaking clue. What route was called? Where was Zay supposed to go? Did he stumble like it looked like to me on the replay? Did Tyrod read the coverage wrong? If anyone can answer these questions you can safely say who's fault it was.

Zay doesn't get blame for this. This was Tyrod's worst game in the three years that he has been there. Was it an exception or a norm? We will see this year, but starting a thread to blame Zay Jones shows a lack of football knowledge.

Actually it was on Zay. That route should be run to the cone or corner not the sideline. You only run that to the sideline behind the corner when there is time. If he just runs towards the corner, it's a TD.

 

I am not pinning this game on him, but that route was run improperly. I am sure he would tell you the same. Take a look at the play again and you will see. Tyron actually threw it to the perfect spot for the TD. Zay ran too much to the sideline for no reason,...sad day for any Bills fan.

That's pretty much what I saw.

 

I said it was a "great" throw, but I suppose a great throw would have been better than that, and caught. I just thought that it would have been an easy TD had Zay flattened out his route. The throw was to the right spot IMO, based on the coverage. Ball hits Zay in stride if the route isn't as hard to the sideline. But he's young, and was probably running the route exactly the way it was drawn up, rather than improvised based on the soft spot in the coverage.

All Taylor had to do was get some air under it and lead him into the end zone a bit - its a TD and most likely a W for us.

 

Oh well...maybe next week.
