Who's arguing the sack wasn't huge?? That was never the subject of this thread, or my original post. Regardless of the costly sack, and lost yardage, lamb had all of that yardage back on the next play if he simply catches a wide-the-f***-open pass that hits him perfectly in- stride and in the hands. No , he would not have scored on the play. But as you yourself just noted, the odds of scoring from the 5 are much higher than from the 17. When he dropped that ball, it was game over. He catches that ball and they have 2 plays, and a legitimate chance, to score.
It's asking a lot for our scrub OL to block Williams. It's not asking a lot for a 1st round pick WR to catch that pass. He's a good player with a bright future, but he deserves to be raked over the coals for that drop.
