Pick 6 was 100% on Mingo

It’s a lot easier with the noodle arm hero throwing floaters all over the yard

What the hell was that lob? It's also like he kinda has his feet actually set on this one but then he ends up walking through the throw like he's in warm ups or something

Just an observation but it concerns me how no defender remotely gives a poo that Tremble is running free across the middle. Now I'll be the first to say Tommy has had an up and down career with us thus far but he hasn't been developed either. I think he could be a pretty good TE with the right coaching. Back to the point though. The defenders all head toward the sideline with Mingo because they have been well coached and watch film. They knew where the ball was going because they know Bryce's tendencies. More often than not there is absolutely no threat of Bryce Young throwing downfield. We can blast Reich the OL Mingo or whomever. The tape doesn't lie.

Watching the All-22 you can see that when Bryce begins to throw Mingo is running a drag down the 30 yard line while Bland is trailing about 2 yards deeper at the 32. Once a WR reaches the proper depth on a drag route he should run a straight line parallel to the LOS. #33 is playing a zone to account for Chuba and Tremble. #33 only turns to run once he sees Bryce going to Mingo. If Mingo stays on the 30 worst case is it's a PBU or a drop, best case he catches it and Bland misses the tackle. Without knowing the read progression on this play I can't say if Bryce missed Tremble or just never got to that read because Mingo was open. I would like to see that throw with more velocity though. Mingo ran a lazy route, Bryce could have made a better throw. They are both responsible for the pick 6. This isn't an either/or situation.
