Sometimes you gotta squeeze that shit in there and tell the WR to deal with it.

You'll never
ever see a better example of that than the TD throw to beat the Saints.
You see him look off the underneath coverage and as soon as Davis clears, he steps and delivers an absolute seed to Davis just as the safety is closing in. Davis gets in the air, catches the ball and
delivers the hit to Roman Harper, who had timed his collision absolutely perfectly.
He's capable of doing it and when the situation mandates it, is clearly willing to do it. Like I said, though, he appears more inclined to take the 'live to fight another day' approach.
And there are going to be times that we're damn happy about that, even if we don't really realize it.
