Quote:Well there's the problem right there. You obviously don't have a DVR and didn't actually get to see what happened on the play. See the highlight here at about the 2:30 mark

To recap what actually happened, Thomas had a defender trailing him and a guy ahead of him ready to take a run at his knee when he caught the ball, no one was chasing Bortles at all. If there really was no one open down the field he should have thrown it away, the steelers had a guy waiting for that play ready to try to take Thomas out for the season and either Bortles didn't see him, or didn't care and just went ahead and threw the ball anyway. There was no need to take that risk on the best player on the team when he's two yards beyond the line of scrimmage and running hard at the sideline.
There was nothing wrong with that play, it earned positive yards. Thomas was just unlucky.
