It was a timing route, not sure if any of us know whose fault it was..... coaches do

As soon as a WR starts moving parallel with the LOS, he needs to have his head up to give his QB a target. Beebe didn’t have his head up. 

Had Beebe been looking, he would have seen where Mannion was going with the ball, as Mannion threw the ball before Beebe stopped.

Absolutely but head fakes are part of it, either way if it’s a stop route and Mannion got rid of the ball a little early and off it’s still a miss. 

Mans honestly with his head up, while slowing down on a stop route like that, the ball is getting picked. He’s not catching up to that after already trying to run his route. But It May have not been a TD.

 

Honestly it’s so hard to tell, Beebe could have ran the wrong route all together in that situation, Mannion could have misjudged where he was supposed to stop. 

 

Either way the whole situation looked a little odd

You guys are much better analysts than I am; all I saw on the interception play was Mannion getting rushed into throwing a duck.

Loved his last throw though, standing in there to get it to Boone knowing he'd be drilled a millisecond later. Impressive catch and run.
