It was late and over the middle.
He did that same bit of idiocy in the pre-season and I gave him a pass because it was 3rd and long and a pick would've been the same as a punt.
But you simply do not make a throw late and down the middle on first ****ing down. That's the kind of play that shouldn't be made and if you make it against any kind of quality defense, your best hope is a penalty.
Judging process is always more predictive than judging results and here the process was exceptionally poor. It was bad execution of a worse decision. That ball should've never come out as he had absolutely no way to throw it far enough for Hill to run under it. The underthrow was the only thing that could've happened there and he's lucky that Hill bailed him out.
