This is the biggest factor imo. I'll admit that since Tua's had the brace he has floated passes high when he can't plant...BUT...The only reason his stats have slumped is because of the borderline illegal play both upfront and in the secondary that the last few defenses have elected to play against us.
Its obvious to me the other teams know they cant beat our 11 on the field so they have decided to challenge the 8 officials on the field. The officials won't call a penalty on every play even though the likely could because the game would likely take forever to end.
Essentially I think we are going to have to match the same borderline play in the rest of our games just to call attention and force the officials to call the game evenly. If they mug, we mug.

There are a BUNCH of other plays where he actually makes a DIME throw that looks like a bad pass because the DB's are MUGGING our WR's for 10-15 to even 20 yards down the field uninterrupted and that dang blasted refs are not throwing flags for holding!!
Tua is throwing to where he expects his WR to be..... and where HE WOULD BE..... IF.... the opposing DB didn't have a fistful of jersey near the whole play.
It's infuriating witnessing these Refs give other teams unfair advantages the last 2 games specifically. At this point I guess the only thing we can do is commit holding against the other team until it's called.
But as of right now I expect AU and UGA to grab Jeudy, Waddle, Ruggs III, and Smitty and ride them down the sideline making deep timing completions almost impossible.
Forget ANY type of fade.... just burn those plays from the playbook.
We are only going to get teams deep on double moves, quick mid-hitters, and or underneath to a RB or released TE up the seam.
