1. Read has nothing to do with whether or not the throw is a good one. That makes zero sense. And your open comment is also silly because he would have been interfered with. He was going to be open.
Come on. Use logic.
2. You made a statement as an absolute, don't get stupid.
3. Your reaching and logic deficiencies are off the charts. Do you understand reads...at all? Clearly not. You don't base them on the idea that you will make a terrible throw and your WR will get leveled mid-route. You constantly make some of the most baffling, mind-numbing arguments with zero logic or reason.

1. Reading has to do with whether the route is going to be available. That's what a quarterback does. He scans the field for coverage and possible open windows. If he sees, based on coverage, that a window will be open, he throws the ball. If he doesn't he checks down to another receiver. We don't KNOW if he was going to be open. As the play showed, there was a safety in the vicinity. We can assume, but we don't know.
2. Actually, I asked a question. Go back and re-read. A question is inherently NOT an absolute statement. Maybe you need to learn English, language and punctuation marks. ;)
3. The original question was why is Baker Mayfield throwing it on 4th and 5. You said that was the read. My response included that that throw is a low percentage throw. The overthrow was merely a PART of my argument, which is why it had 3 components. You chose to focus on the throw, but that wasn't the ONLY part of my argument.
So are you going to address the high percentage vs. low percentage aspect of my argument? Or are you going to conveniently ignore it.
My argument is very much logical and complete at that.
Your turn. :)

they confirmed that was a catch. It was not a catch, of course but it's the eagles so of course it is
