What an absolutely nasty route though.

Andy might have had room to run if he gets it though.

You notice on DH route, he stops and backs up off the ball as he thought it was going to someone else. If he didn't do that and continued, I could see him catching that if he reached for it.

I honestly think that ball was for DH and not Andy. DH just stopped.

It wasn't. That's what he's saying. The throw was for Isabella.

DH was probably supposed to run a deep vertical that would have drawn the safety toward the sideline. Instead he ran an inside route the brought the safety down toward Isabella. Take that safety out of the picture and Isabella catches that ball in stride.

When you really think about it..

Andy could have had a career day. Underthrow cost him a TD and if he gets that ball that would have been a big gainer.
In real time I couldn't figure out what happened. Just think of what this team will look like when Hopkins and Murray are on the same page all the time.
Yep. Offense looks like it needed OTAs the most. Glad Kliff kept the offense throwing late in the game to get more work in.

Don’t forget on the last drive DH caught the ball and went out of bounds. He immediately said my fault since we were supposed to eat the clock.

Didn't matter the clock was at 5:11 when he went out so when the ball is placed the clock starts again. So in actually it cost maybe 5 seconds. Clock only stays stopped in the final 5 minutes of the half and the fourth quarter.

I like that he came out and took responsibility for it. The question he was answering had nothing to do with the interception, but was whether or not he was his own toughest critic.
This is really a good thing.

When your star WR comes out and admits his faults it shows that he is accountable.

Great example for the rest of the team.

If you watch the clip it was a perfectly thrown ball with a blitzer in his face. Safety makes a great play on it.

That pass went like 60 yards in the air, rather maybe he should have thrown sooner but you have to set up to throw it that far

troy apke runs a 4.3, that was just a play by the safety

Only think Kyler could have done was cut throw loose sooner and thats hard to calibrate as a qb

Yeah, it's cool to see a guy get paid and not act like a Diva and blame someone else (even though it could be true). I'm liking this guy.

He’s also not a diva when he scores a TD. No over the top celebrations.

Larry is the king of honorable maturity when it comes to that. No one wants to like like a fool standing next to him.

It’s funny, but after the pick I said, “What are you thinkin Kyler?”

First I thought it was an inaccurate throw. Then hearing Hopkins explanation and seeing it replayed Issabella may have taken it to the house.
