And/Or now that he no longer has the deep ball as a crutch, his inability to read a defense and work the middle of the field is being exposed.

His stats have been declining since teams started running 2 high on him and covering the sidelines. That’s his game. No throws to the middle of the field. I bet if you look at the All 22s you’ll see teams barely covering the middle of the field.
