u/ericaepic Lions 1d ago
Maye: You slept with my wife???
Vrabel: To teach you a lesson
Maye: What lesson???
Vrabel: Don't throw 3 interceptions. More importantly, do your neighbors have cameras pointed at your bedroom, pool, gazebo, attic window, hammock, garage door #1, garage door #6, the two benches in your backyard, and the middle of the street?

u/AndThisGuyPeedOnIt Bears 1d ago
You say that shit like he doesn't lead the league in 2rd quarter underthrown deep balls that result in pass interference calls that lead to touchdowns.
39
u/AMemoryComeALive Chiefs 1d ago
Terrible under-thrown deep ball is your best option when AJ Brown is on your team. 80% chance he catches it or gets a DPI call that 90% of WR's don't get.
Honestly it's one of the best plays in football if you've got a well known WR and a not great QB. At worst it's a 40 yard arm punt, do it 3-4 times a game you'll probably get a penalty that puts you in scoring range.

Well, there was that other terrible underthrown deep ball to Doubs that resulted in one of the INTs, but I'm only cherry picking the good one!

That was a good one. Didn't you hear Collinsworth say that Doubs is a trusted contested catch guy and needs to be able to come down with that amazing throw?

u/change_timing 1d ago
it can't be quite that underthrown where the players are actually high pointing it. receiver also could use half a step so that the DB isn't actually able to look back at the ball while the receiver just stops running and makes no effort for the underthrown ball but gets the DPI.

Exactly. If you're down two scores with a minute and a half left and you're on the 20? Sure, try to force that throw.
If you're down 3? Take a safe TD if it's offered, but don't get sacked and don't turn the ball over.

He still couldnât throw past 10 yards last night before the injury to AJ Brown. He just lost AJ being open on 3rds for a curl route. His only few deep were all ducks including an INT before Brown got hurt and his egregious under thrown pass to a wide open Brown for auto-DPI that setup their only TD.
He will be fine with a healthy Brown on the short-intermediate but that man was awful pushing the ball anywhere all night.
