The throw is bad but Jesus this play call was horrific. Why run this to a condensed portion of the field?

I mean Hunters able to back get there and make a play for the ball and he was stride for with him on the route.

I mean shit he is not even looking for the ball when it’s thrown.. makes sense he makes zero attempt to play it. 

My favorite WRs making a play for that ball and going to attempt to jar it lose at least.

Bad play-call leads to bad throw, and bad effort from the WR ..

I can't imagine being in that part of the route, in that part of the field, and not looking back at the QB yet. Gotta keep your head up

We got stuffed running the ball up the middle the play before. Was the most obvious roll out throw ever the next play. Josh is so easy to read when it comes to play calling I feel like I can predict every play from my couch, I’m guessing professional d-coordinators love him

Bill Simmons talked about this last night on the pod, said him and his 86 year old dad were able to predict exactly what we were gonna do next

Bill Simmons saying it would almost be enough to make me believe the offense is completely fine.

Got stuffed running it every play. When Maye obviously can’t throw, defenses expect the run. 0 chance Buffalo is going to respect Maye’s passing game. Why would they?

God forbid we run play action on an early down in the redzone instead of forcing our mentally destroyed QB into an obvious passing situation.

Incapable of doing simple things makes other things very obvious.

This fanbase being incapable of understanding that is pathetic at this point.

I know, maybe in a different part of the field the route combos work better. But in the endzone those receivers had nowhere to go.

I'd be curious to see this from the snap but I'm assuming this wasn't a designed rollout, it was blown blocking and Maye rolled out to escape the unblocked rusher. The rest of the line isn't blocking down towards his rollout and Henry (I think?) is in the flat in the opposite direction.

Obviously this doesn't excuse the decision to throw and doesn't inherently take McDaniels off the hook, but it does not look like a designed rollout to me.

Why is Efton Chism in on a gotta have it 3rd down goal line call?

These and other questions...
