how often a QB throws at the sticks vs how often they are actually generating first downs

dishonorable LB play from 41
stick a hand in the guard's chest plate and take some space back.

SICK throw but I'm also quite impressed at Ward's economy of movement. Doesn't get any deeper than he needs to in order to escape the pocket, immediately climbs once he's outside the tackle box to go make this throw. it's the little things with Ward that keep me intrigued

Ward has to be better here. 3 is hauling ass to the flat, Ward should feel comfortable throwing the little stick route behind it

Cam Ward throws this ball on the rhythm that he's supposed to -- WR just isn't where they need to be because they can't get off press coverage.

Chargers running a C3 creeper with the S rotating down weak and the weak hook player pushing to the trips side. Watch Ward's feet constantly resetting as he takes stock of the pushed weak LB (0), confirms the rotated S (2) is out of the MoF, and triggers to throw the dig. Stays ready

different coverage but much better here
PHI has Blankenship playing a soft/high hook to the strength in match coverage, leaves him handling the corner route. good trigger and a decent throw from Dart

don't get Dart's process at all
has the C2 beater into the boundary and sees the CB step down into the flat, but doesn't throw the corner and instead goes back all the way across the field before bailing

imagine if Edgerrin Cooper (56) stepped to Damien Lewis with some force -- doubt Dowdle finds a way to squeeze out 7 yards the way he does here
(yes I know Lewis is a tank and does this to most LBs)

when I harp on LBs needing to "take back space" from the OL vs the run, moments like this are why it matters.
Dowdle wouldn't be able to maneuver back to the inside as cleanly if Quay Walker (7) rocked the OL instead of kinda catching the block

sick Bryce Young throw on 3rd and 5. sees the S get depth off the hash and knows he's got a spot he can throw to as long as he gets it over the 2nd level defender

LOVED this play in coverage too ... the deep over/stop is supposed to tie Hufanga down, but he feels the post coming and speed turns out of there to make a play on the ball. Fantastic awareness
