He wouldn't have gained enough vertical elevation while staying in-bounds considering that he was jumping while moving backwards unless he defied the laws of physics. There wasn't a defender in sight. In terms of intermediate passing, it was an absolute gimmie of a throw, and instead, it turned into a significantly improbable fingertip catch. Perriman's been a disappointment this season, along with the rest of the passing game, but that incompletion was far more on the throw than the catch.
But Truth, he's a first round receiver. He has to defy the laws of physics in order to make that catch(Fwiw. This isn't logic. By this "logic" it's acceptable for Antonio Brown to not make the catch but Breshad should be crucified"). Truth is right. Otherwise he should be cut ASAP.
It is on both and I agree, but farso more on Joe. Flacco threw it outside the numbers. Perriman could have stopped and adjusted, but he actually did his job. He was
wide, fucking, open. as wide open as you can get. Now, had he had adjusted to it instead of falling back, he would have caught it. But he got wide open, it's Flacco's job to get him the damn ball accurately. An accurate throw, that'smore likely a TD.
Sorry guys. I like Flacco: He's sucked this season. He sucked last year. He was bad the year before. I think he eventually turns it around, I think he was actually working on his game this offseason before the back injury(and sometimes, it shows. He was throwing dimes at some point yesterday and was doing the same vs. the Browns. He didn't really do that at all the past two years. I do think a big part of his current struggles is discomfort). But as of right now, he needs to get his shit together, and he knows it. It's hard for any WR to have production when the QB is sucking this hard.
Joe needs to get his head out of his ass. And for a brief moment yesterday he did. Even with the shitty oline play, their were plays yesterday a good NFL QB would have capitalized on to win the game.
Fucking hell Joe. Seriously.
