It looked to me like if he'd have just launched that sucker out there and let Hill run under it, he had a shot. But the ball died on him.
I can't decide if it was a bad decision or a bad throw.

Good decision, bad/unlucky throw. The ball came out of his hand a little funny, and the wind was affecting the football. Remember Butker's missed FG from 51? Yeah, the wind was somewhat of a factor, so its reasonable to conclude that it was just underthrown/wind affected underthrown.
I'll take my chances of having him take some shots deep, to keep the safeties honest, so the underneath stuff stays open. I'm not all too upset about that one anyways as Cincinnati went 3 and out on the following possession.
