beaten up badly during that drive. QB runs have to be used sparingly, they are big difference makers when successful because the damage done by them is usually bailing the team out with a key first down or when they scramble and somebody breaks open downfield. The interception throw he made was ridiculous, all he had to do was air it out where only his man could get it. Our guy was beyond the defender. Also, the throw I wish he would have made in that situation was the in between throw to a guy about 15-20 yards downfield that was wide open. There was no need for us to score early on that drive. He got greedy.
You could see he was hurting after that first drive. Yeah, he got it in the end zone but he was
