Yeah, there were a few throws down the stretch that were only like a step, or a half step off. Should get better with time to work together this year.

Can't wait to see plays with Shaheed and Horton on the field together. So much speed.

Shaheed, Horton, and Arroyo were all on the roster last year but should collectively take a BIG step up this year. It'll be so hard to defend. That's a wild dynamic given they're already coming off a SB win. That just doesn't happen.

Those half step off throws made Gonzales a superstar.. Gonzales should buy Darnold a beer at the least.
He also made some damn good plays. It's ok to give credit to the opponent. He's a damn good corner. I tipped my cap a few times to that guy. Sam has already said he didn't like how he played. But......Gonzalez is probably the main reason the Hawks didn't win by 4 plus touchdowns.

I give Gonzo credit for his pass-breakup on Shaheed. Shaheed is in the endzone if Gonzo didn't make that diving deflection.

Also, people say that Sam didn't lead JSN enough to connect with him in the endzone and that looks to be the case BUT Gonzo still had to make the play which he did (and almost came away with the ball, too).

So that's two TDs he's prevented.

The other two were Darnold overthrows (The first of which he was rushed by the Pats D-line and the 2nd he just overthrew it) that had he connected, he would've had at least 2 TDs to his credit.
