You don't always need time to throw deep. You just need timing and deception...and speed always helps.

Agreed.
Early on, I was shocked with how deep Julio Jones was getting on Ryan's 3 step drops and throws last night.
The one pass on their 2nd series that went for like 25 down to about the 6 yard line, I saw him wind up and throw and said to myself "who could have gotten that deep so fast?" But lol and behold, Jones was under the perfectly thrown ball.
Lots of short passes will translate into shots taken downfield. I am so excited to see Luck in a "real" offense.
Walk Worthy,
