A well executed pass play is a thing of beauty. Every millisecond from the moment the ball is snapped to the instant it touches the receiver’s fingers is critical. But flawless execution is easier said than done.
Receivers may slip, get jammed at the line, or fail to break when they needed to. Quarterbacks get pressured forcing them to make an errant pass, they may mistime a throw, have it tipped at the line, and weather can play factor — for both positions. That is to say a lot of things must go right in order for a play prove successful.
