It's one play, but seemed like he has some wheels.
Yeah and he played timid but he was also a rook in a big game. Think he's primarily a perimeter and possession dude for this year's playoffs but agree the wheels are there for the deep strikes.It's one play, but seemed like he has some wheels.
Agreed. Once he settles in I feel like he's going to be real solid for us. Just need to give him more opportunities.Yeah and he played timid but he was also a rook in a big game.

I will admit that play was a "deep shot" in terms of design and the play call. The play action, protect was max with the TEs back blocking, with two deep patterns. Jefferson blew threw but they also had a crosser underneath that is a mid-to-deep pass. Too bad the refs didn't see that hold by the Cards on the underneath crosser it was rather obvious.Underrated aspect of the Goff/Wolford decision, which were not privy to and will never be: why did Wolford throw deep more than Goff had in his last five or six games combined?
I see the man circled which is Jefferson, I look at how far he is from our OL noticing how well they held off that Cardinal D. Is he really that fast? Or did our OL hold them long enough for him to get that far down field?
The safety is one of the best in the league (Buddha Baker) and he's more quick than fast, but he flips his hips at this point here to run with Van:I see the man circled which is Jefferson, I look at how far he is from our OL noticing how well they held off that Cardinal D.

Van Jeff is special no doubt, but wait til he becomes a seasoned vet. We might be able to open up our deep route playbook again.The safety is one of the best in the league (Buddha Baker) and he's more quick than fast, but he flips his hips at this point here to run with Van:

Van overtook him by the 35 yard line:

And then before the 40 yard line you see the separation. So yeah I think Van showed his athleticism there.

Yup I've seen Higbee and Kupp get separation on deep routes too. We're full of those speedsters.lol.. by this reasoning woods is a deep threat also
