This board roasted Alex Smith for missing a wide open Hill against Pittsburg.
Pat doesn't have an excuse. Neither did Alex.
Kelce and Pringle's body language during that play says it all. They both knew they were open and both did a jump once that window closed. You can tell Kelce is totally expecting that ball. Pat was looking right at him.
I think what bothers me most is he didn't even try. I'd stomach a bad or errant pass, but just to freeze up? That's the gut punch. He makes that throw to Hardman in the flat and that throw to Kelce while sleepwalking. Those aren't difficult throws.
It's just so uncanny, and out of character.
