And then how about the extremely timely huge return by none other than Skyy Moore that probably was as instrumental to the W as the penalty Ossai gave to us that gave us the game?
Though, I read somewhere that Burrow realized as he threw it he should've thrown it underneath to whoever it was wide open for the first.

In law an analysis of foreseeability isn't based on exactly HOW an outcome came about, but whether or not that outcome itself would be reasonably foreseeable.
Is it foreseeable that a rookie is gonna tip a pass to another rookie for an int? No, not really. But is it foreseeable that when you take a deep shot to a covered player who's running into safety help that the ball might get picked? Yeah, of course it is.
Then if you want to get into punt returns and penalties - fine, you do you. But I'm disinclined to relitigate that game. I mean Patrick Mahomes essentially gifted them at least a 10 point swing when he simply forgot how to football for a play and just kinda threw the ball on the ground. I mean c'mon - there's no sense in getting that granular in your analysis.
It was a tight game that ultimately swung on Burrow making a throw into coverage that he shouldn't have made.
