Maybe not, but it appeared that way to me.  I think having ARob as a receiver is very difficult because you are constantly having to adjust to either cutting off the route for backshoulder and jump balls or for the route to continue.  Regardless and either way, it was just one bad pass.  They happen multiple times every game by every quarterback in the league.

That's not an ARob problem.  That's a synchronization problem between the QB and the receiver.  It should be instinctive for both.  

That was a bad pass on a play where your receiver had a step on the coverage and a clear path to the end zone if Blake hits his spot.  He didn't.  They practice that play over and over again.  It should be almost automatic.  Throw to a spot and let your receiver go get it.
