The field is 53 yards wide. Throwing zero yards downfield to the sideline is the same distance as 26.5 yards downfield straight ahead. The graph cannot be to scale if a 25 yard seam is 30% farther than a throw to the sideline 26.5 yards away.But...they're not the same throw. As the chart shows, the 25 yard seam travels 30% farther in the air. This is starting to feel like that Solomon Asch experiment!
In this version the two vectors are the same length up to the arroheads, and the dotted line represents the difference in the length of the two throws.
