Yea I'm starting to miss the Trevor who was leading the league in down field attempts. I understand why as they wanted him to cut down on INTs and take what the defense gives, but it does feel like he has been in a straight jacket the last few games. Offense needs big plays and they aren't taking more than a couple a game.

They didn't tighten the straightjacket enough today IMO. He'll have his opportunities to shine with the deep ball. Today should never have been viewed as one of those opportunities, especially after the injury. 

He threw too short (planting on a banged up ankle) to Agnew, and twice to Jones - all three could have been picks and all three were 20 yards plus attempts. Poor strategy against that defense with a hobbled rookie QB. 

Call me conservative, but,  I'd save those (and other such) attempts for defenses that actually have secondaries susceptible to those kinds of passes and routes.
