In reality though, it was both.
On the first pick, JD horribly under threw into coverage.
The screen pass pick 6 shouldn’t have even happened. Skinner fumbled the pitch on what should’ve been a huge gain.
On the other pick, JD had Casey wide open in the middle of the field and still under threw his deeper target. Hard to blame that on the play call.
However, whoever was calling plays saw us gash Illinois on the ground and decided not to stick with the run. On one of our late 3/outs, we ran for 7 yards on first down. Then threw two incomplete passes and punted. Inexcusable to abandon the run there with how bad JD looked.
I believe JD maybe mostly made the decisions he’s always made, but he doesn’t have the arm talent to get the ball there anymore. That is a completely dead arm. Even the passes he completed looked labored. Throws to the boundary either floated or went low. Hate to say it, but I don’t think he’s physically close to where he needs to be. Bad decisions look worse when you don’t have an arm.
