There have been a fair number of passes where if Hill hit the receiver in-stride they would have taken it to the house, but instead they have to slow up and make a great catch over the defender.

Rewatched the Houston and Virginia games and looked at every pass Hill attempted

Dropped balls shouldn't be counted as attempts.

he didn't count drops against Hill in the analysis. If a ball was on target it

Clarification: I was referring to comp % in the books.

I counted passes even if penalties were involved.

I've noticed a couple balls short on some Leslie out patterns. Don't know how

How many of those were passes by Hesiman candidates. If Taysom is getting that

My biggest gripe with Hill's passes are the out of bounds end zone passes to

Announcers during the UVa game blamed that, at least in part, on the receivers

Had the WR moved in on the LOS and cut less

I'd be curious to know how many of those attempts

Guess..10-15%... Usually when the play breaks down Hill runs it.

For the pass to Blackmon when UVA blew their coverage

I called it a good throw...hit him in the numbers

idcougarfan

Because Blackmon slowed to catch it. A good throw would've been an easy TD pass.

Walter Bellhaven

I have to disagree...just rewatched it again.

idcougarfan

9/23/14 4:24pm

So Blackmon didn't slow down at all to catch that?

Walter Bellhaven

9/23/14 4:42pm

It was not a perfect pass, but it was a good pass.

idcougarfan

9/23/14 4:54pm

Haha, gotcha.

That could go either way, but it wasn't short hopped or air mailed over his head

Just a note that not all of the "missed" passes were bad throws

I just called it how it looked.
