Zero anticipation. By the time he noticed Toney was open, the LB had seen it as well and Jones wouldn't pull the trigger.
He's out there waiting for a guy to be open instead of break open. I don't watch enough Jones to speak to how often he does that, but usually they're like spiders - if you see one, there are WAY more behind the walls.
I always wondered why Jones wasn't better than he is because I think he's a great pure thrower of the football. But that would make some sense - he just doesn't (didn't?) have the necessary anticipation. He's behind the play.

I always felt from the first time I saw Jones that he had a pretty good arm and arm talent, but a ten-cent head; he just never threw with any anticipation, the receiver always had to be wide open before he'd consent to throwing the ball.
Pat on this play would stare down the outside route and make the S bite on that, then flick it to Toney just after the break.
And when you look at the route he ran in the clip that got called back for holding, look at the nuance of that route. After he cuts around those two defenders on the right, he actually runs a rub with the other Giants receiver, making himself wide open. That's pretty advanced stuff right there. |
