What irritates me was the playcall because it put him to his left. You could see him getting ready to try to throw it away but he had to expose himself to a shot to do it so he thought better of it and tried to reverse field to give himself a way to get rid of that ball on the move.
Putting him to his left made that play 100 times more difficult not just to execute but also to salvage. It also left him open to taking a hit if he DID try to just unload.
It was just a really maddening playcall, IMO.

It was a "get 7 yards closer for a FG" playcall. I don't mind it, but it cuts down half the field.
He's gotta throw it quick and if it's not there just sail it over everyone and let Butker kick it. However, like you said, he's a playmaker. I just don't think that's in his DNA, but he's gonna have to do it because in January in Foxboro (lets face it, were gonna have to end up going there) that could be the difference in a 42 yarder and a 53 yarder.
