He needs to work on his deep ball technique. Probably can't be done until the offseason. But he throws it flat and always has.
O.City thinks he throws it that way because he's late to pull the trigger and has to get more on it. It's as logical a reason as any, really. I think he's just in love with his arm a bit and has never had a good 'run under' receiver - even Hill preferred to jump up and turn to catch it.
In either event, it's just a technique issue that he's going to want to work on. I see no reason to believe he can't eventually get it figured out but right now it's just not a club he has with any regularity.

You nailed it. If Pat hits one deep I'm always surprised. That's all you gotta know.
I hope this offseason he shores up that part of his game because it's legit bad. Yes, when Reek was here it was better but that was Reek. NOt Pat. You can't overthrow Tyreek because his get off speed is insane. So Pat could hold it for a tad longer and then rip it and it worked.
Worthy takes longer to get to his top speed and he and Pat don't have this timed up.
But the ones he hit like in San Diego are RARE. And he shoulda easily hit the one Sunday.
