I can see what Gruden was trying to say. Most QBs (especially rookies) should play it safe in that situation. Imagine Gerrard, Gabbert or Henne trying to make that throw. We'd have been agreeing with him.

 

However Blake them proved him wrong by making a great on the money throw (as he did almost every throw again yesterday, the only bad throw was his first throw which wasn't awful, just far too low for the WR to grab).
