Pittsburgh Steelers WR Van Jefferson saw three targets last Sunday, resulting in one reception. Fortunately for him and the Steelers, it turned out to be a 43-yarder. Unfortunately, it probably should have been more than that. While many observed as much during the game, Jefferson himself acknowledged it speaking to reporters Wednesday. But more importantly, he talked about the positive impact a big play can have on a playmaker.
Van Jefferson's 43-yard catch was a huge play but my man, just keep running straight. You were ahead of everyone! This isn't soccer.
