Was it on Lewis or Henne

#1

Speaking of the 4th down play. I think it was a catchable ball, however looked like Lewis expected a fastball but Henne through a change up.

If it hits the hands it ought to be caught.

henne floated it

lewis was looking back into the sun

lewis could have run a bit faster

henne could have faked the throw and walked to get the first

You'd expect your overpaid tight end to catch that, but it was a terrible throw. Henne is to blame.

The easy answer is both.  Henne placed it very poorly. Lewis had to make an awkward adjustment to the ball - but he did - and he got his hands on it.  

 

So - he could have caught it  - and Henne could have made it much, much easier.  Pick your poison.

I stick up for Marcedes a lot.. but I think it was clearly his fault.

 

For one, he got two hands on it. You're playing with Chad Henne, you should be happy his throw was even that accurate.

 

Secondly, I don't care if you're looking into the sun, if you get two hands on it, it should be a catch, ESPECIALLY if you're getting paid millions to do just that.

 

Sun or no sun, you need to make that catch. Period.

Not if it's just out off reach.

How is it out of reach if it hit him in the hands?

Here's the deal. Henne lobbed a throw over the defender to get it to Lewis. Lewis was running away from the throw and made an awkward attempt to catch the ball (Lewis could have timed his jump better). But nevertheless the throw was undoubtedly too far. Everyone could see that when it left Chads hand. Gates, Olsen, Bennett, Randolph/ every other tight end doesn't make that play either. Only TE I see making that play is Graham (because he's more athletic to make that jump/catch) and Vernon Davis because he has the speed to run under that throw.

I'll echo the both selection. Someone has to make a play there,and neither did.

The ball literally bounced off both of Lewis' hands. He is so uncoordinated.

A two yard pass to a wide open guy should not be thrown so poorly when the QB is not really under pressure.

It was a horrible pass it it came from a QB on the level of PM, TB, AR or any other top 5 or so QB out there.

 

It was a good enough to catch pass if it came from a QB on the level of a CH, BG, or any other bottom 5 or so QB out there.

 

A top 5 TE makes that catch, even if they have to jump and layout to make it.

 

A bottom 5 TE will never make that catch, and there's a good chance he would drop it even if it was thrown better than it was thrown.


I survived the Gus Bradley Error.

Lewis always looks like a stumbling giraffe, he makes easy catches look hard
