Just like a ball the shortstop gets his glove on might be an error or a base hit. It's a judgement call based on difficulty of making the catch.

A better analogy is a catcher calls for a curve inside and the pitcher throws a fastball out.

AR and JJ work on this in practice every day. You're open in the middle and no one is in front of you, be prepared to go LOW and get the ball. See, QBs are coached not to throw a "rocket ball" high in the middle of the field; its a education that begins at the Pop Warner; its probable the second thing taught after, "dont throw to the guys w/ different jerseys."

It also misrepresents the facts to say the throw was high; the throw was "sailing." JJ caught a similar pass on 4th down throw a few weeks ago jumping up just like that; but he had guy in front, JJ ANTICIPATED the high throw.

Normally I agree, if the throw is considerably off target and it hits both hands, it not wrong to say the WR "should have made the great catch." though, [to use G&G's analogy] If a SS dives for a ball and the ball bounces out of his glove into LF, no on calls that an error and NO ONE will call this INT a drop. Again normally I'd put the blame 80-20, 90-10 on the QB. However, with JJ expecting the ball from the numbers down, his having to unexpectedly react to the high throw causing him to jump "late" [as others pointed out] is 100% on AR.

I kept track of dropped passes and missed tackles.

[list=1]

  • James Starks
  • James Jones
  • Davante Adams
  • James Starks[/list]

  • I was so disgusted with the team I didn't track tackles in second half. Quinten Rollins was the only one I have logged from first half.

    Anyone know what ProFootballFocus has Packers down for in drops against Lions?
