Ertz turned DMac around on this play..
DMac had responsibility on both Clement and Ertz as possible targets on that play. If Ertz breaks to the outside behind Clement DMac has to cover that. You see the little wiggle Ertz does freezes DMac for a fraction of a second which was just the window they needed..
It was just another well designed route to occupy the safety. Also required a hell of a throw into double coverage with not an inch to spare for the receiver to make the catch (or not depending on how you stand on the review).
Flowers was RIGHT THERE. You can't ask for better LB coverage 40 yards downfield. Ugh....
On that play you just gotta say great throw and a great catch.
I'm not going to bash DMC or Flowers on that one.
