Something happened between the 16 play, 99 yard, 10 minute touchdown drive that was a thing of beauty and the rest of the game. Pits defense dis not change, the time in the pocket did not change. There were times when he had all day to throw, yet could not see the open men.
It was as if he got tired of the long drives and just wanted a quick score. He was holding the ball too long, as the announcers, what Harbs said at halftime, what his teammates were saying to him, what we saw on the all 22 view CBS kept giving us.
Did he forget where the safeties went when he had someone running a skinny post in man coverage, with all the room ahead and to the side to throw? Is that why he failedd to make that throw time and time again?
Why was he so late, throwing so low throughout the game? Even the pass at the end, where the db fell off Brown in the flat to jump the route on Andrews in the seam.
Lamar stared down Andrews, threw it late giving the db time and reason to make that great play.
He is making the same mistakes over and over and now, for that game, refused to make tight throws.
