He just didn’t see the LB. He was in the move, something he doesn’t do very often, saw the receiver coming open and didn’t see the LB sitting alone in a short zone reading the QB. His eyes were downfield and he didn’t check underneath. It happens. This is why you want a pocket. Your reads are true from the pocket, but when it breaks down and there is a scramble, you are trying to pick out a receiver improvising, not reading a defense.When you look at it from the backside on the replay Bourne sat down in the defense when I believe Mac thought he would keep running. Mac ended up throwing a bad ball, one I bet he wishes he had back. He also had Jonnu open in the flat below waiting for the check down, which would have been the smart play on first down.
Mac and Zappe both threw one really bad ball last night, both ended up in INT's.
Preseason is for practice.
