The defender on the ball side of the WR with no safety help is the equivalent to a practice throw with no defender in terms of the throw itself, which is what I was saying.  That is a throw where the QB is supposed to just loft it for the WR to run under for the catch, as long as the QB doesn't choke and way short the ball, the DB has no bearing on that throw, just like a practice throw with no DB at all.

And the same goes for the T-Mac throw as well, no safety help with the defender on the ball side of T-Mac.  All he had to do was feather the ball over the top for T-Mac to run under.

And I'm not bashing the throws, he made a 100% perfect throw for the routes and where the WRs and DBs were on those plays.  But making even a perfect throw doesn't mean he was "slinging dots downfield", it means he made a 20 yard lofted pass with the proper touch for the WR to run under it, something any NFL QB should be able to make.

He gets full credit for making an accurate throw in the clutch, I've said that numerous times today.  But superlatives like "slinging dots downfield" is just crazy nonsense for what the throws themselves actually were.

Ehhh I feel the Tmac throw was a bit underground.... he has to slow down and wait while catching it behind him... luckily he has 4 yards of separation so he had room to spare
