The int wasn’t a bad throw or decision though, Bradberry made an amazing play. Terry was wide open, Bradberry came around him a from a few yards back and was able to pick off a slant pass! Just an amazing play!

The throw was too far inside for where Terry was. Terry ran a bad route there, but Heinecke didn't adjust to the come back and simply threw into space. Normally that's okay. But not with the coverage they had. 

And I just watched it again...it wasn't a slant. It was a curl. The LB bumped Terry and slowed his route down and Heinecke threw to empty space for the INT

It really was a bad decision. 

In most situations, you could tip your cap to Bradberry and chalk it up to a miscommunication with Terry. 

When you’re up a point with 2 minutes left, you don’t throw it unless you see it. If you’re not sure you’re on the same page with the WR, if you’re not sure you don’t have a DB breaking on the route, then just eat it and keep the clock moving. Forcing throws in that scenario is mind-bendingly bad. Just can’t do it. Extremely lucky it didn’t flat out cost us the game.

Super Bowl baby! Heinicke mania in full effect!

lol please. Many here will tear him up next wk. TH is still in his early developmental stage so he will make more bad decisions down the road. But our D is really struggling. Having a young QB and a poor def is bad combination. We got lucky tonight But I'll take the win.
