Gonna be honest here and it sounds weird but it’s true watching the tape: he’s thinking way too much.
He turned the ball over too much early and you can tell he’s purposefully not trying to put the ball in harms way. The overthrows today, especially to Worthy in the endzone, looked like a purposeful overthrow to avoid risk.
Others like the disastrous Worthy overthrow out of bounds vs Denver was due to the OL. His feet were a mess and he sped everything up. Same thing on the miss in SF.
He’s thinking far too much. And he’s also meshing with new players on the fly and it’s tough developing chemistry with a bad OL. And Kelce, Watson and Hopkins are not man-beaters. They can’t get open the way a QB needs guys to get open.
It’s a constant wheel of messiness making the QB think too much.
