So I just rewatched the clip of Worthy's inc reception on the deep corner/sail route, from the tight pov, and if you just watch Pat's feet, you can see that he doesn't step into the throw, he steps out to his left. Plus, he's a tick late. But both things almost certainly are why the pass ends up being as close to the sideline as it was.

And that not stepping into the target line of the pass is something that Pat has had issues with in the past as well. Iirc, it opens his hips slightly, which causes him to pull the ball to his left. And you can see in the video that his throwing motion looks a little awkward, it doesn't flow or finish well. It's like he bumps into an invisible wall as he's releasing the ball.
