The deep ball

[Burgold]

What I've loved about the deep ball this year is how we've run it.

It seems like guys are always running wide open when we use it. Probably because of basically everything else we run they have to think about, the deep ball is gotta be the last thing on anyone's mind.

If ya think about it this was true last year. Roughly half of Grossman's interceptions were wide open bombs that fell five yards short of their target, but the receiver was there. The difference is arm and timing, and not necessarily playcalling.

AA could get open deep, Grossman just couldn't get it there. Griffin can. Mind you, some of the wide open's are WIDE open. Paul had half the field to himself yesterday.
