I didn't, girlfriend at the time and the kids were ready to go, hot that day too IIRC. The play happened soon as we left the gate, had to listen to the rest on the radio on the way home.
Sam needs to play better if we want to be as good as we can but he has been clutch the last couple of weeks even not playing his best ball.

I agree that the ball placement wasn't really a problem. It would have taken an NFL-caliber throw to put it over his shoulder without leading him out-of-bounds.
The issue, IMO, is that he was late throwing the ball. Get it out half a second earlier, and not only is the pass rush less of a factor, but you have plenty of space to lead Perry for an easy over-the-shoulder catch. By the time he let it go, the window where he could place the ball was very small, and it took a contortionist act to reel it in.
Second straight mediocre game from Sam. Maybe the dome was affecting things, but it seems like he's been a little off on his deep balls all year, and that missed TD to Chapman on the first drive... woof. Good coaching and all-around team effort to pull out these last two. We'll need him to be better moving forward, and I don't doubt he will be.
throwing for 654 yards and scoring seven TDs in two games is now mediocre
lowf is dead.
Was that the pass that he laid out fully in the end zone to make the catch?
