Passing lines: MaxPreps box scores (coach-entered) for five games plus the official box score for Jesuit Dallas. Passer rating uses the NFL formula (maximum 158.3); NCAA pass efficiency = (8.4 × yds + 330 × TD + 100 × cmp − 200 × INT) ÷ attempts.

What the film says, in plain words

Strengths and weaknesses

Every line is computed from the 200 dropbacks (play-level counts use the staff's Hudl tags for five games and the official play-by-play for Jesuit Dallas; the season line is MaxPreps box scores (coach-entered) for five games plus the official box score for Jesuit Dallas).

McKinney · 2026-09-18 · W 63-35

MaxPreps box score (coach-entered) line: 30/34, 407 yds, 4 TD, 1 INT (passer rating 143.5, NFL formula; NCAA pass efficiency 221.7). The tables below count the staff's Hudl play tags, which can differ from the MaxPreps line by a play or two.

Disputed: The staff tags show 2 interceptions against McKinney; MaxPreps (coach-entered) credits 1. The staff tagged clip 75 'Interception', but the throw happens after our saved frames, so the film cannot say which count is right; the staff can settle it. Until then the play tables count it as disputed: not an attempt and not an interception, flagged wherever it would count.

Every split is computed over all 200 dropbacks, from the staff's Hudl tags for five games and the official play-by-play for Jesuit Dallas (season line: 120/162, 1,565 yds, 14 TD, 2 INT from MaxPreps box scores (coach-entered) for five games plus the official box score for Jesuit Dallas; the play data differ from it by a few plays). Passing counts completions, incompletions and interceptions as attempts; sacks and scrambles are listed separately; the disputed interception (McKinney clip 75) is not counted and is flagged where it falls. Success: 1st down gains 40% of the distance, 2nd 60%, 3rd/4th all of it; a sack is never a success. Throw side and depth come from the staff's pass-zone tag (first five games only: no pass-zone tags for Jesuit Dallas; 2 attempts in the tagged games have no zone).

The pre-snap stat asks one question per dropback: based on what the defense showed before the snap, where should the ball have gone, and where did it go? Then the same question after the snap, because defenses rotate. A play counts only where the frames show both the answer and the throw.

Pre-snap and post-snap options (115 plays assessed at both points)

Yes means the play matched the option identified by the film study at that point; no means it differed. These are comparisons with an analyst's suggested option, not right, acceptable, or missed-read verdicts. The season rates above use all plays judged at each point separately: 156 before the snap and 126 after it.

Post-snap: yes (matched)Post-snap: no (differed)
Pre-snap: yes (matched)774
Pre-snap: no (differed)1024

The 10 pre-snap no / post-snap yes plays: The choice differed from the pre-snap option but matched the option visible after the snap. Six were graded right reads and four acceptable; none was a missed read. Five were tagged as disguised coverage. Other plays may reflect a route or window opening as the play developed. A match label alone does not reveal what Ashton saw or decided in the moment.

The 24 no / no plays are not 24 missed reads: ten were graded missed, eleven could not be judged, and three were acceptable.

13 missed reads in 200 dropbacks: 7 confirmed by all three reviews (listed first), 6 disputed by the blind third review. Each shows the situation, what the defense showed, where the ball should have gone, where it went, the film notes, and what the blind reviewer (who never saw the earlier verdict) concluded. Play numbers are the team's Hudl clip numbers (Jesuit: snap order, with its Hudl clip), so the staff can pull any of them; the film itself is the team's and is not reproduced here.

Lake Ridge, clip 20 · 2nd & 7 · 75 yds to goal · Q1 · dropback → Sack -4
confirmed by all 3 reviewsHeld the ballcostly
Defense showed
Cover 1 / pressure (single-high, 6 on the LOS)
Should have gone
Hot/quick. Get the ball out on rhythm to the near/field side (offense left), either the motion man in the flat or the near 1-on-1 vs the off defender, before a 6-7 man rush.
After the snap
The near-side flat/motion receiver, who had about 8 yd of cushion at t03.29-t04.73. Otherwise throw it away.
Where it went
Sack, -4. The QB drifted back toward the far side and was down near own 21 by t06.17, about 3-3.5 s after snap. No throw.
Film notes
Single-high + 6 on LOS at t01.84 = pressure; rule is hot/quick. Near flat/motion man had ~8 yd cushion (t03.29, t04.73) while others were in man trail. Rusher on QB by t04.73, sack -4 by t06.17.
Second look
Pre-snap pressure at t01.84 calls for the hot throw. The near flat man was uncovered behind the LOS at t03.29, and the near WR was about 5 yd past the LOS with about 7 yd of cushion at t04.73 while the rusher reached the QB. Missed read stands, low confidence. Correction: the near defender bailed to about 12 yd, a 3-deep fire-zone look, not Cover 1.
Blind re-check
missed read (medium): 01.84: one safety ~11yd over pressed boundary twins, 7 near LOS, #1 alone & shallow to field. 03.29: #1 bails, motion man swings to field flat with nobody near; QB holding at ~5yd. 04.73: swing man ~5yd downfield alone (#1 ~13yd deep), QB drifted & grabbed by #11. Hot field throw was there; held, sacked (06.17). Low-res; snap falls between frames. Better option: The hot swing or flat to the field side to the motion man. #1 vacated the flat by bailing deep, so this was open from about 03.29 through 04.73. Getting the ball out on time beats a sack, and a throwaway would also have been better than taking the loss.
Lake Ridge, clip 61 · 1st & 10 · 55 yds to goal · Q2 · dropback → Incomplete 0
confirmed by all 3 reviewsTook the covered throw
Defense showed
Single-high, likely Cover 1 (tight on #2/#3, off CB on #1), Cover 3 possible
Should have gone
Field side: #7 hitch/out in front of the 7.5-yd cushion, or the #2/#3 seam away from the safety. The light box also favored a run.
After the snap
#7 short outside: uncovered, CB ~9 yd away at t05.54/t06.57
Where it went
Middle of the field, ~12 yd, to crossing #1 from trips, released about 2 s after the snap (between t05.54 and t06.57). Incomplete: the ball landed past him near the safety (t07.60).
Film notes
t03.49: 1 high ~11 yd, trips field: 2 defenders 2.5-3 yd on #2/#3, CB 7.5 yd inside on #7, 5-man box. t05.54 QB holding, #7 free near LOS (CB ~9 yd). t06.57 ball to crosser #1 ~10-12 yd with S ~3 yd over top; t07.60 ball down past #1 mid-field. Concept unknown; #7 may not be in the progression.
Second look
The shell is confirmed at t03.49: 1 high about 10 yd, slightly toward the far hash; two defenders 2.5-3 yd off #2/#3; CB about 8-9 yd off #7; far CB about 6 yd. Correction: the box has 6 defenders (4 DL plus 2 standing) against 6 blockers, so it was not a light box. From t04.51 to t05.54, #7 steps about 1.5 yd and stops facing in with the CB about 10 yd off, which looks like a hitch or now route. The concept is unconfirmed, so confidence is medium-low.
Blind re-check
missed read (low): t03.49: 1 deep S ~10 yds, CBs 5-7 off, 2 DBs tight on inner trips. Post-snap Cover 3: field CB bails to ~14, hooks sink to ~9, FS sits at 10. t06.57: #1's in-cut runs into the FS 2 yds in front; #87 sits at 7 under hooks; #7 alone at LOS (~10 yd cushion). Ball on turf past #1 in t07.60. Release not on film; target inferred. Better option: #87 on the roughly 7-yd sit under the sinking hook defenders, or #7 alone in the empty field flat near the LOS for a 5+ yd catch-and-run on 1st & 10.
Hebron, clip 6 · 3rd & 17 · 17 yds to goal · Q1 · movement → Sack -10

Should have gone
3rd & 17 at the 17 means protect the FG, no sack
After the snap
Near-side underneath receiver or throwaway, not the covered end-zone route
Where it went
Sack, -10, no throw. QB drifted straight back ~7-8 yds instead of widening right; held ~4 s (snap ~t05.4, down by t10.27)
Film notes
t04.63: Quarters look, 4 deep at 7-11 yds, soft near CB. Held ~4 s, sacked -10 at t10.27, pushing the FG back.
Second look
t04.63 shows four deep at 8-12 yds and the near corner about 8 yds off. After the snap the near corner ran with the near WR into the end zone (t07.45). At t08.86 a near-side underneath receiver was around the 12, about 2 yds ahead of the trailing defender. The QB was untouched through t08.86, drifted straight back without widening, and did not throw it away; sack -10 by t10.27. This supports missed read.
Blind re-check
missed read (medium): t04.63: one safety ~11 yds over the ball, off CBs, apex at 4 = single-high. t07.45: #7 is blanketed by the CB at ~4 and the far verticals are covered, so nothing is open yet. t08.86: TE #87 is at ~12 with a 1.5-yd step on the apex, the CB is in the end zone with #7, and grass is open to the pylon. The QB is upright, rushers 3-4 yds off, but he drifts. t10.27: #87 is alone at ~4 while the QB is sacked. Low-res frames ~1.4 s apart. Better option: Throw to TE #87 toward the near pylon at about t08.86. He has a 1.5-yd step on the trailing apex and no defender between him and the sideline. At minimum, throw the ball away instead of taking a 10-yd sack on 3rd and goal.
McKinney, clip 124 · 1st & 10 · 60 yds to goal · quarter not tagged · play-action → Sack -2
confirmed by all 3 reviewsHeld the ballcostly
Defense showed
Two-high quarters-type 3x1 check (trips side CB/S/apex, backside CB plus far S on the lone WR)
Should have gone
Two-high with an even box: take it in front of the safeties. Trips side (left), inside receiver on an in-breaker or seam-to-dig at 8-12 yd under the near S, with the RB/flat check-down as the outlet. Do not hold for a deep PA shot
After the snap
Intermediate middle: the trips receiver at about 10-13 yd between the LBs and the deep S (open at t06.17/t07.61), or the near-side WR or check-down, released by about 2-2.5 s
Where it went
No throw. Sack, Hudl -2. QB set about 7 yd deep with the ball at t06.17 (about 2 s after the snap) and still holding at t07.61 (about 3.5 s) as the pocket closed; play over by t09.06
Film notes
t03.29: 2 deep at ~9-10 yd, 6-man box vs 6, trips left. PA; t06.17 QB set ~7 yd deep, pocket clean, middle receiver ~10 yd between LBs and deep S; t07.61 still holding, pocket closing; sack -2 (t09.06). Frames ~1.4 s apart, so the exact window is uncertain.
Second look
t03.29: two defenders at ~9-10 yd, 6 vs 6 box. t04.73: play-action fake. t06.17: QB set, rushers engaged. Two trips-side receivers sit at ~10 yd (the 50, near hash), with underneath defenders at 3-5 yd and deep ones at ~15 yd. t07.61: middle receiver at ~15 yd is still ~5 yd under the deep defender as the pocket collapses. Sack -2. Frames ~1.4 s apart; QB's eyes not visible.
Blind re-check
missed read (medium): t03.29: 2-high, 6 in the box. Post-snap: quarters, 4-man rush. t06.17 (~2s after snap): pocket clean, QB set ~7 yds deep. The trips slot is ~10 yds downfield in the middle with the deep safety ~6 yds over, LBs well off the lane. t07.61: same WR ~15 yds, ~7 yds of space both ways as inside pressure arrives. He held, scrambled left, and #30 sacked him ~WG37 (t10.50). Better option: The trips slot (bottom side) settling in the middle hole at about 10 yds in t06.17, with the deep safety about 6 yds over the top and the LBs well off the lane. He was still open at about 15 yds in t07.61. Throwing the ball away would also have beaten the sack.

confirmed by all 3 reviewsHeld the ballcostly
Defense showed
Zero / pressure look (no deep safety)
Should have gone
Hot throw off the snap to the trips side: #3/#2 underneath into the area the walked-up apex leaves. Alternative: a quick slant to the boundary WR, who had no deep help
After the snap
Get the ball out hot underneath to the trips side right away; the free rusher arrived in about 1-2 s
Where it went
Sack, -5. No throw; ball still in hand at t07.34, QB down by t08.50 (about 2 s after the snap, snap ~t06.0-t06.19)
Film notes
t05.03/t03.87: no defender deeper than ~7 yds, apex walked up to ~2.4 yds = zero look, so the rule is hot off the snap. t07.34: apex unblocked in Ashton's face, ball still held; sack by t08.50. Trips receivers ~3 yds deep vs defenders ~6 yds.
Second look
The frames support the verdict and add evidence. t07.34 zoom: trips #3 has drifted back and out to the flat ~3-4 yds behind the LOS with no defender within ~10 yds (the apex blitzed), and the ball is still held. Corrections: the outer trips defenders gave ground to ~8-9.5 yds (they did not sit at 6).
Blind re-check
missed read (medium): t05.03: no white deeper than ~8 yds; apex 3.5 yds inside trips. t06.19: apex steps to LOS at the snap. t07.34: apex unblocked ~1.5 yds from QB, ball held high; trips WR drifting back behind LOS at far numbers, alone, field defenders bailed 9-10 yds. t08.50: still no throw, sack near the 41. Blitz = hot now; it was there. Medium: low-res, 1 s gaps. Better option: A hot throw off the snap to the trips-side receiver drifting behind the LOS at the far numbers, uncovered from t06.19 through t08.50, or a quick throw to #1/#2 underneath the 9-10 yd bail. At minimum, a throwaway instead of the sack.

After the snap
Field side #10 at ~6 yds, no defender within ~6 yds t03.94-t04.83; or throw it away
Where it went
No throw: sacked -4 near own 24 (down by t05.71); QB contacted ~t03.94, stepped up t04.83 still holding
Film notes
t01.29: two-high (S ~12/~10.7), field CB 7.5 soft. Field-edge pressure t03.06-t03.94; QB stepped up t04.83 still holding while #10 (field WR ~6 yds) had no defender within ~6 yds (t03.94-t04.83); sacked by t05.71. Checkdown or throwaway was there; pressure came fast (~2 s), so low confidence.
Second look
Confirmed. t01.29 measures S ~11.6/~9.5, field CB ~6.8, Mike ~4.7. #10 sat at ~5-8 yds with the nearest defender (the bailing CB) 6+ yds away from t03.06 to t04.83, and the QB held until the sack at t05.71. Pressure came at ~1.5-2 s, so confidence is low, but the open outlet is clear in the frames.
Blind re-check
missed read (medium): t01.29: middle safety ~12 yds, field overhang ~9-10, field CB soft ~6 yds, no field apex, 5-man box. Field CB and overhang bail (t02.17-t03.94). In t03.06 the QB has stepped up with the back on the edge rusher; #10 sits ~5 yds deep, ~7 yds from any defender. Ball held, QB drifts right, sacked ~t04.83. The fast edge rush shrank the window (it opened between frames), but the hitch or a throwaway beat -4. Better option: Throw the field-side hitch/settle to #10 (outside WR to the field) at about 5 yds against the bailing corner. The best moment is when the QB stepped up clean at t03.06. Failing that, throw it away rather than take the -4 sack.

Should have gone
Cover 0 with 6 rushers vs 5 OL in empty: hot throw by about 1.0s to the biggest cushion (far #2 quick sit or slant at about 5-6 yds), or throw it away.
After the snap
Same quick hot throw by ~1.0s; once the edge was free, throw it away rather than take -11
Where it went
No throw. Held under 6-man pressure, escaped about 3300.0, scrambled backward and was sacked for -11 about 3305.
Film notes
Broadcast 3297.0: nobody deeper than ~6 yds with the field to the ~12 in frame: zero. Cushions 2.5-6 yds, 6 rushers vs 5 OL in empty. Edge rusher on the QB by 3298.0-3298.6 (~1.0s) while receivers still had 3-4 yd cushions. No hot throw and no throwaway; scrambled backward, sacked -11 (~3305).
Second look
Broadcast 3297.0: deepest defender about 5-6 yds, with field to about 13+ yds in frame. Empty set, 6 at the LOS. At 3298.0, four of five receivers have 3-4 yd cushions, far #2 the largest. At 3298.3 a rusher is about 2 yds from the QB; by 3298.6 rushers are on him (about 1.0-1.3s). No hot throw and no throwaway; -11 sack.
Blind re-check
missed read (medium): Broadcast frame 3294.0-3296.3: the only deep DB walks down from ~10 to ~6 yards and every DB is 3-4 yards off, a Cover 0 look. 3297.3-3297.6: 6 rush vs 5 OL; the near TE is past the LOS with his man ~4-5 yards off. Ashton holds and drifts ~4 yards; free rusher in his face at 3298.3, down ~3299.6. A hot throw or throwaway beats -11. His eyes and route breaks aren't visible, so medium confidence. Better option: Throw hot right away to the near TE releasing underneath the walked-down middle defender (about 4 yards of cushion at 3297.6). A completion there probably gains only about 3-5 yards, short of the 6 needed, but it is far better than -11. At minimum, throw it at a receiver's feet or away instead of drifting into the sack.

Defense showed
Cover 3 (single-high, soft corners, apex as curl-flat)
Should have gone
Cover 3 look. To the boundary: quick game in front of the CB's ~6 yd cushion. On the hi-lo, read the apex: throw the deeper route if he widens, the flat if he sinks.
After the snap
The other near receiver short in the flat (~5 yd), left uncovered once the apex sank
Where it went
Right (near/boundary) side, about 10-11 yd, between the near hash and the numbers, to #7 after he crossed inside the other near WR. The ball is visible in flight at t10.50; release was about 1.5-2.9 s after the snap. Incomplete.
Film notes
t07.61: 1 high ~12 yd mid, CBs 6-7 yd, apex 4-5 yd inside slot. Ball (in air t10.50; direction right, intermediate right) went to #7 ~11-12 yd at the near numbers. Fits pre-snap, but at t10.50 the CB is on top and the apex sank under #7 while the other near WR stood free ~5 yd. Target partly inferred; no frame after t10.50.
Second look
Pre-snap is confirmed at t07.61: 1 high about 10-12 yd near the middle, both CBs about 6 yd off, apex about 4 yd inside the slot. At t10.50 the ball is in the air toward #7. One defender is level on #7's inside hip, not on top of him, and a second is closing underneath. Meanwhile the other near WR is about 6 yd deep in the flat with about 3 yd of space. An 11-yd window against a sinking apex is not the 12-18 yd sideline hole the pre-snap answer named. The decision frame is not visible, so confidence is low.
Blind re-check
cannot tell (low): t07.61: 1-high (S ~10 yds), off CBs, apex over near slot; field stop vs inside-leverage CB = sound pre-snap answer. t09.06: CBs pedal in man. t10.50: ball just out, on line to far WR stop ~8 yds with CB in contact; #7 vertical w/ CB trailing; 2nd near WR alone ~6 yds; pocket clean. Release falls between 09.06 and 10.50 and the catch is unseen, so not judgeable. Better option: Possibly the second near-side (boundary) receiver underneath at about 6 yds. He is uncovered at t10.50 because the apex ran with #7. I cannot verify he was open when the ball came out (somewhere between t09.06 and t10.50).

Defense showed
Soft zone with corners off (Cover 3/quarters family)
Should have gone
Near side (WG right): #84 hitch/curl at ~7-8 yds against #21's ~8-yd cushion; the near overhang sits ~5 yds over the slot. On the far side, 2 defenders at ~5-7 yds (not ~12) are over lone #17, so avoid that side.
After the snap
Same: #84 sat down ~11 yds near side, open (t10.50: nearest defender #21 about 10 yds away)
Where it went
Far side (WG left), ~15 yds (just past midfield), to #17. #1 crosses from the near slot into the same area. At t10.50 a defender's hand is in and the ball is in the air beyond them; incomplete (intermediate left, L). Release likely between t09.06 and t10.50, about 2-3.5 s after a snap between t06.17 and t07.61.
Film notes
t06.17: #21 ~10 yds off #84 on the near side; far side has 2 defenders ~12 deep. Pre-snap answer: #84 curl past the sticks. Ball went far side, mid depth (intermediate left), to #17; a defender's hand is in and the ball is on the turf (t10.50), while #84 is open ~11 yds at own 46. Caveat: #84 may not have turned yet when the ball left (~t09.06).
Second look
Verdict holds: at t06.17 the cushion is on #84 on the near side, and the ball went to the far side into a contested 2-on-1 (t10.50). Correction: the far-side pair sits ~5-7 yds, in front of the ~10-yd official, not ~12. Post-snap: at t09.06 #84 is still running vertically with #21 bailing ahead of him. His sit-down at ~11 yds (t10.50) comes after the release, so 'no' on the post-snap match can't be shown.
Blind re-check
cannot tell (low): t06.17: soft off D, no deep safety visible (deep middle off-frame). t09.06: CBs bail; defenders over #1, #12, far WR; #84 at ~WG46 with #21 3 yds deeper. t10.50: ball in air to far-side #12, defender on hip, LB leaping in lane; #84 alone but stopped. Release and #84's break both fall between t09.06 and t10.50, so the frames can't prove #84 was open at the decision. Better option: Possibly #84 on the near side, sitting alone at about WG46 (past the sticks) while #21 bailed. This can't be proven because both his break and Ashton's release happen between t09.06 and t10.50.

disputed: blind review said cannot tellTook the covered throwcostly
Defense showed
Single-high, Cover 3 (Cover 1 possible)
Should have gone
Single-high 2x2: a seam throw away from the post safety's leverage, or the 12-18 yd sideline hole if a CB bails. The far-side seam/outside hole was a legit pre-snap target.
After the snap
Safety and CB both converged on the far-side vertical, so work off them. Take the far #1's short stop (~7-8 yds, CB ~10 yds off at t07.61) or come back to the near side/checkdown.
Where it went
Offense left (far side), deep (~16-20 air yds) toward the far slot's vertical/numbers area. Probable ball in flight at t07.61 next to the bailing CB, with the safety over the top. Intercepted about the 18-20 and returned to about the 25 (t09.06-t10.50; intermediate left, INT). Throw ~1.5-2.5 s after the snap (+/-0.7 s).
Film notes
t04.73: single-high and off corners, so a seam or outside-hole shot was a fair pre-snap plan. By t07.61, with the ball apparently in the air, the far CB had bailed into that hole, the safety was over the top and the apex was trailing the slot. The open look was the far #1's short stop. Ball barely visible, hence low confidence.
Second look
Confirmed. Single-high made the far vertical a fair pre-snap shot. Post-snap at t06.17, the far apex is in phase with the slot and the far CB is bailing. At t07.61 the slot is bracketed, while far #1 sits about 5 yds downfield at the far sideline with no defender within about 5 yds (CB about 10 yds off). Throwing into the bracket is a missed read. Ball barely visible, so confidence is low.
Blind re-check
cannot tell (low): t04.73 is the last pre-snap frame: 1 high S at ~11 yds, off CBs, apexes on both slots, ~6 in box, so single-high. The snap falls between t04.73 and t06.17. t06.17-t07.61 show a CB bail and the S in the middle (Cover 3 look) with both slots running seams. No frame shows the release, ball or catch; by t10.50 players turn back toward WG's goal (INT return). Target and timing unseen, so cannot tell. Better option: Cannot tell. Possible candidate: the far outside WR settling at about 8 yds against a bailing corner (t07.61), but he can't be shown to be open at the unseen moment of release.

Right (top): bubble/flash to the top slot ~2 yds behind the LOS, thrown ~0.9 s after the snap. The apex was unblocked and made the tackle for -2
Film notes
RPO. t01.34/t02.29: apex ~6-7 yds directly over top slot, shallow FS ~8.5 shaded there, box 6 v 6, so give. t03.23: apex widens and QB is already throwing the bubble (~0.9 s). t04.17: slot catches ~2 yds behind LOS, apex unblocked, -2. Conflict defender never fit the run.
Second look
Confirmed. The snap is visible at t02.29. One nit: the apex did not 'widen'. From t01.34 to t03.23 he came straight downhill at his own alignment, outside the box, and never fit the run inside. He was unblocked on the bubble and made the stop, so giving was the right read.
Blind re-check
acceptable (low): t01.34: soft 2-high, 6-man box, 3 DBs over 2 WRs to the field. Snap t02.29; by t03.23 #4 has pulled and thrown the bubble as the apex creeps downhill (~6.7->4.2 yds, never widens) and field S rolls down. Defensible RPO pull, but bubble was outnumbered; CB beat the stalk (t04.17), -2 at t05.11. Give vs 6-box was as good pre-snap; nothing clearly open. Read falls between frames. Better option: Possibly the zone give into the 6-man box (6 defenders against 5 OL plus the H-back), which pre-snap numbers favored over a 3-on-2 bubble. It is not clearly better post-snap, because the apex and field safety both rolled downhill. No receiver was visibly open.

Single-high rotated (Cover 1 / Cover 3 sky look), lone deep S shaded to the boundary (glance side)
Should have gone
After the walk-down: single-high, with the lone S just outside the boundary hash. Work the field side away from him: field #1 vertical or back-shoulder vs the CB about 6 off with no help (or the field slot seam).
After the snap
RB checkdown in the near flat (alone at t06.40); the wheel was bracketed by trailer + #5
Where it went
Near-side (boundary) wheel by the near wing, about 22-24 yds to about JCP8-10. Ball out about 2.5-2.9s. Contested, incomplete.
Film notes
Wide t00.50 two-high; by t03.80 the field S walked down to ~5, leaving one deep S over the glance side. At t06.40 the S capped #1, #5 sank onto the #2 wheel with an LB trailing, the deep middle was empty and the RB sat alone in the flat. Ball went ~24 yds to the bracketed wheel (t07.40-t09.50), incomplete.
Second look
Wide t00.50: two deep (about 11 and 13 yds). By t03.00-t03.80 the field S walks down to about 5-6, leaving one S at about 12 just outside the boundary hash. At t06.40 the S is on the glance, the wheel has a defender on his hip and #5 about 6 yds over the top, and the field pairs are in phase. Ball to the wheel at t07.40-t08.40, incomplete. Caveat: the RB was about 4 yds behind the LOS with two LBs 3-4 yds away, so the checkdown was worth only a few yards.
Blind re-check
acceptable (low): t03.80: field S rolled to ~5, boundary S ~10 on near hash (1-high look). t05.40: field CB and S bail over both field WRs, #5 bails, S caps X glance: quarters. Ball to boundary flat-wheel vs trailing OLB with #5 deep over top, contested ~JCP8, incomplete (t07.40-08.40). Nobody clean at t06.40; the t05.40 flat was the in-front answer. Release falls between frames; wheel target ID from motion. Better option: The near-side wing's early flat at t05.40, with the apex 4-5 yds off: the in-front answer against the two-high quarters look, worth a modest gain on 1st and 10. No receiver was clearly open at t06.40.

Zero-high pressure look (Cover 0, or man with a low robber)
Should have gone
Zero-high pressure look, deepest defender about 6 yds near the ball (t01.52), on 4th & 4. Hot or quick throw at the sticks if they bring it; if they drop, throw the called post into the empty middle.
After the snap
The post (#1), deep middle ~JCP20-26, wide open
Where it went
Near-side vertical to #87, released about 2.9 s. Caught at about JCP9-10 with a defender attached (t07.13); 32 yds (official).
Film notes
No one deeper than ~8 yds pre-snap (t01.52): the post into the empty middle was the answer. It came open: #1 alone, arms up near JCP26, 7-8 yds clear (t04.88), still clear at t07.13. He threw the near-side vertical into #5/#9 (t04.88, t06.00) while being hit. Great catch for 32 on 4th & 4, but the post was the easier, possible TD throw.
Second look
Supported. No defender is deeper than about 6 yds pre-snap (t01.52). Near the release (t04.88) the slot on the post is alone at about JCP27-28 with arms up, nearest defender about 6 yds away, while #87 has #5 and a second defender over him. The ball went to #87. Small corrections: the near CB was about 1-2 yds off (pressed), not 3. The deepest defender was between the hashes near the ball, not at the far hash. The hit at release comes from the broadcast and is not visible in the Wide frames.
Blind re-check
right read (medium): t00.40: all 11 defenders within about 7 yds, no deep safety. The PA fake (t02.64) froze the LBs; Ashton stood in and threw as the 5th rusher hit him (t04.88). Ball went deep to the boundary vertical, trail defender only, nobody over the top (t06.00 ball in air), 32 yds to the 9 (t07.13). Slot #1 was also open at about 11 yds near the hash (t04.88), but against zero the deep 1-on-1 was the best answer. Release falls between frames. Better option: None

Pre-snap look
safeties: Two-high at t01.84 (about 9-10 yd, one over each hash). By t03.29 the boundary (near) S had rotated down to about 6 yd and the field S sat about 8-9 yd, shaded to the field. This is a late single-high rotation.; corners: Field (far) CB tight, about 1-2 yd, on the outside WR. Boundary (near) CB about 5 yd off the near WR, roughly head-up (off).; apex: Field-side overhang about 1-2 yd off the LOS, inside the far WR (box edge). The rotated S covered the boundary side.; box count: About 7 (4 DL + 2 LB + rotated S) vs 6-7 blockers (5 OL + TE + RB); motion response: No motion (tag motion blank). The defense rotated the boundary S down before the snap.
Pre-snap read
Cover 3 (rotated from a two-high shell, boundary S down)
Should have gone
Last pre-snap frame (t03.29) still shows a two-high shell: one S at about 9 yd on the far (field) hash and one at about 7.5 yd inside the near hash, with nobody in the middle. Box is 7 (4 DL, 2 LB at 4-5 yd, field overhang about 1.5 yd off). Standard answer is underneath or run. The field flat already had the overhang sitting over it, and the boundary WR had a soft CB about 6.5 yd off. Routes are not visible.
After the snap
Cover 3. The near CB bailed to about 10+ yd by t06.17, a deep defender sat about 10 yd field/middle, and the rotated S played underneath on the boundary. → Short right to the RB in the field flat, or a seam/curl window vs Cover 3. The frames do not show whether a downfield window was open.
Where it went
Short right (field) to the RB behind the LOS. Caught between t06.17 and t07.61, defender closing on him at t07.61, down near the far sideline around own 45 at t09.06.

Film notes
Two-high at t01.84 rotated to single-high by t03.29 (boundary S down ~6 yd). Ball went short right to RB, away from rotation (short right, 0 yd; far-side tackle t09.06). Fits the look. Throw ~2-4 s after snap, deep options not visible: acceptable.
Second look
t03.29 does not show a single-high rotation: safeties sit at about 9 yd (far hash) and 7.5 yd (near hash), and nobody is in the middle. The field overhang about 1.5 yd off was right over the RB release, and the RB was hit for 0 (t07.61, t09.06). Routes and other windows are not visible, so 'acceptable' is not supported.

Second look
Core holds. The field side was empty at t00.40, the ball went out fast to the near WR (t01.61-t02.21), and he was down behind the LOS at t03.42. Corrections: both deep defenders were on the boundary half at about 8 yd, not 'middle/near', and the inside one came downhill at once (t01.00-t01.61) rather than staying high.

Should have gone
Hot/quick. Get the ball out on rhythm to the near/field side (offense left), either the motion man in the flat or the near 1-on-1 vs the off defender, before a 6-7 man rush.
After the snap
Cover 1 with pressure. Defenders were in tight trail on receivers at t04.73, the S stayed deep middle, and a rusher was on the QB by t04.73. → The near-side flat/motion receiver, who had about 8 yd of cushion at t03.29-t04.73. Otherwise throw it away.

Sack, -4. The QB drifted back toward the far side and was down near own 21 by t06.17, about 3-3.5 s after snap. No throw.

Single-high + 6 on LOS at t01.84 = pressure; rule is hot/quick. Near flat/motion man had ~8 yd cushion (t03.29, t04.73) while others were in man trail. Rusher on QB by t04.73, sack -4 by t06.17.
Second look
Pre-snap pressure at t01.84 calls for the hot throw. The near flat man was uncovered behind the LOS at t03.29, and the near WR was about 5 yd past the LOS with about 7 yd of cushion at t04.73 while the rusher reached the QB. Missed read stands, low confidence. Correction: the near defender bailed to about 12 yd, a 3-deep fire-zone look, not Cover 1.

Second look
Core holds: two-high shell and light box at t06.17/t07.61, both safeties still 9-11 yd deep at t09.06, and the RB underneath short left (tag +7). Corrections: safeties were about 8-9 yd, not 10-12; the throw was at least 1.4 s after the snap, not 1-1.5 s. There is no tackle at own 30 at t10.50 (nearest engaged pair is around own 25-26), so the +7 rests on the tag.

Agree on where the ball went and on the verdict, with fixes. At t03.29 nobody is deeper than ~8 yds: the hash defenders are at ~6 and ~8 yds, not two-high at 9-10. The boundary CB is ~7 off. A quick L throw fits either way. t06.17: near receiver at ~27-28 with a defender closing. t07.61: tackle near own 29-30, which looks like more than the tagged +1.

Disguised. The ~5-yd defender bailed to ~11 yds in the middle (t06.17) and the far CB bailed. About 4-5 rushed, so it played as a single-high/zone-dropped look, not zero → With 4-5 rushing and 6-7 dropping, take the first open underneath route R in rhythm, or a crosser near the sticks.

Red-zone man/zero look (deepest ~7 yds, at about the 8; heavy box): on the naked boot L, hit the first boot-side read (flat/short left at 2-6 yds) early, or throw it away.
After the snap
Man-type: receivers covered tight (t07.61, t09.06). The boot-side edge did not bite on the fake and contained the QB → Edge stayed home, so get it out early to the flat or throw it away / run. No receiver is clearly open in the frames

Second look
The t04.73 look and the L-short landing at t10.50 check out, so side and depth match. But the QB can't be reliably picked out at t07.61, the 'edge stayed home' and 'release at t09.06 / 3.4 s' claims aren't visible, and the target is unclear.

Confirmed. At t01.84 and t03.29 there is 1 deep safety about 12 yd over the far (ball) hash, the slot defender is about 4-5 yd off, the CB is 2.5-3 yd on #6, and there is no motion. At t04.73 the slot is turned to the QB with his hands up while #6 blocks. Minor points: at t06.17 the safety is still over the far hash, not the middle.

Should have gone
Single-high: one safety about 9-10 yd deep, shaded to the far (field) hash. Both corners were off and the near apex was about 2-3 yd deep. As an RPO: give unless the conflict defender fits the run. On a pull, throw the near seam/hash window about 8-12 yd, away from the safety's shade.
After the snap
Single-high held. The safety stepped down ~3 yd on run action (t04.24). LBs/DL chased the QB's pull to the left (t05.52). → Middle-of-field window behind the flowing LBs, ~12-15 yd
Where it went
#4 pulled and drifted back-left; at t05.52 he is between the hashes and being hit by #44. The throw went to the near inside receiver (slot or TE) running up the near (R) hash. That receiver was at about the 20 at t05.52 with a trail defender, then caught it at about 8-12 yd and was down near the 28 (+16). The release came between t05.52 and t06.80 and is not shown.

Second look
The pre-snap shell is roughly confirmed at t01.68 and t02.96. The ball location is refuted: at t05.52 the target is on the near (R) hash, and at t06.80 he is between the hashes but nearer the near hash. So the ball went right or middle-right, not middle-left. The RPO key is never visible (the near apex appears to drop at t04.24), so the frames do not support 'right read'.

Pre-snap is confirmed at t07.61: 1 high about 10-12 yd near the middle, both CBs about 6 yd off, apex about 4 yd inside the slot. At t10.50 the ball is in the air toward #7. One defender is level on #7's inside hip, not on top of him, and a second is closing underneath. Meanwhile the other near WR is about 6 yd deep in the flat with about 3 yd of space. An 11-yd window against a sinking apex is not the 12-18 yd sideline hole the pre-snap answer named. The decision frame is not visible, so confidence is low.

Second look
I agree the clip has no pre-snap look and the verdict stays 'cannot tell'. I disagree on details. At t02.54 and t03.26 the receiver is on the far hash (just outside it at t02.54), not between the far hash and the middle, and at t02.54 he is only about 9-10 yd downfield. The 2-high man shell is unclear: at t01.11 the deep defenders are only about 8-10 yd deep. So 'yes' on the post-snap match is not supported.

The shell is confirmed at t03.49: 1 high about 10 yd, slightly toward the far hash; two defenders 2.5-3 yd off #2/#3; CB about 8-9 yd off #7; far CB about 6 yd. Correction: the box has 6 defenders (4 DL plus 2 standing) against 6 blockers, so it was not a light box. From t04.51 to t05.54, #7 steps about 1.5 yd and stops facing in with the CB about 10 yd off, which looks like a hitch or now route. The concept is unconfirmed, so confidence is medium-low.

Frames support the shell (t02.31) and the near WR going vertical with the CB on top (t04.23, t05.19). Quibbles: the QB was about 7 yds deep, not 9-10, and the safety mostly deepened rather than drifting to the field. Checkdowns and the RB are not visible, so 'cannot tell' stands.

Film notes
Last pre-snap t03.29: 1 deep ~10 in the middle, trips CB soft ~10, slots covered shallow = Cover 3, so the answer is a vertical on the trips side. It went deep left, +30. He held it ~4.5-5.5 s: slid left off pressure (t07.61, #4), threw on the move at t09.06.
Second look
Frames confirm the shell, the slide left and the throw at t09.06 to the trips-side vertical, which had beaten the deep defender. The throw was late and off schedule (about 5 s), but it went where both reads say.

Alternative: the near WR quick out/hitch against the off CB.
After the snap
Single-high. The middle defender held near the goal line, and the underneath defenders matched the stack receivers tightly (t06.47): match/man. → The inside route between the hashes, in front of the deep middle defender
Where it went
Middle (intermediate middle), about 8-9 yds. Caught between the hashes around the 4-5 by a near-side stack receiver and tackled at the 4 (t07.69), +9. The throw is not in the frames; release was roughly 1.5-3 s after the snap (snap between t04.04 and t05.26).
Coverage (final)
Single-high red-zone match coverage (Cover 1 vs Cover 3 match not separable)
Open receiver
The inside receiver caught the ball around the 5 and was hit by 2 LR defenders at the 4 (t07.69). The near outside WR near the sideline at about the 10 had no defender within ~5 yds at t07.69, but that was after the catch.

Cover 0/1 pressure look (no deep safety; one middle defender at about 6 yds)
Should have gone
Naked boot left, to Ashton's throwing side, against a zero look. Throw the first open boot-side route early (flat, then crosser). Take the boot-side vertical only if the corner sits.
After the snap
Probably Cover 1 man. The middle defender sank to about 7 yds and the far defender stayed over the far receivers (t07.61). Low clarity. → Boot-side short route (flat or crosser) on the left
Where it went
Left (boot side) per the tag. Intermediate left means intermediate left, not short. Gain +7. The release, receiver and catch are not visible. At t09.06 a WG player, probably #4, is about 8-9 yds deep on the boot side and 2 defenders are about 3 yds into the backfield closing on him. At t10.50 a WG player at that spot is in contact with a defender. Throw time is unknown and may be after t09.06.
Coverage (final)
Unclear. Loaded box with one LR at ~8 yds (t06.17). No deeper defender is visible from t00.40 to t06.17, and the field is in view to about own 47.

Film notes
t03.29: no defender deeper than about 6 yds, with the field visible to the 45, and 7-8 within 5 yds. The naked boot left (lefty's throwing side) is the designed answer to that look. The catch and receiver are not visible in t07.61-t10.50, so the exact target and timing are unconfirmed.
Second look
Pre-snap read confirmed: deepest defender about 5.5 yds with the field visible to about the 45 (t03.29), and about 7.5 yds in the middle at t06.17. Ball-went claim is wrong in 2 places. The 't07.61-t09.06' throw window is unsupported: the likely #4 is still upright on the boot with 2 rushers closing (t09.06, t10.50). The boot-side match rests on the tag only.

Two-high (Cover 2/4) with soft corners
Should have gone
Two shallow deep defenders, about 7.5-8 yds (not 10-11), with corners about 5-6 yds off (t03.29). Throw underneath to the near/boundary side, a hitch or out to the near WR. The run is the alternative, but the box is about 7-8, not 6.
After the snap
Two-high zone held. Both deep defenders stayed over the far verticals (t06.17) and the corners stayed soft. → Same: the near-side underneath throw before the corner closes
Where it went
Right (near) side, short per the tag (short right, +18). On film the carrier is wrapped up at about the 8, inside the near numbers, at t07.61, then is in a pile near the 9 (t09.06, t10.50). At t06.17 he was off the right edge of the frame, at least about 9 yds downfield. Catch depth, receiver and release are not visible. The near-numbers WG at about 3.5 yds (t06.17) is not the carrier.
Coverage (final)
Quarters / Cover 4 family (two-high; near CB carried the outside WR deep instead of squatting in the flat)
Open receiver
The near-side flat receiver (#87) had no LR defender in frame within ~5 yds at t06.17. A defender arrived at the catch near the sideline around the 22 (t07.61), and the receiver beat that tackle (t09.06).

Concept seen
Flood to the near side with motion: the outside WR ran vertical and a back or motion man released to the flat (t04.73).
Film notes
t03.29: two defenders about 10-11 yds deep and corners 6-7 yds off, so two-high and soft; the rule is to take the underneath throw. At t06.17 the safeties are over the far verticals while the near WR sits about 6 yds deep near the numbers. t07.61-t10.50 show the carrier on the near side reaching about the 9; tag Pass R +18. The release itself is not visible.
Second look
The verdict holds on tag side and zone only. The player tracked at t06.17 (about 3.5 yds deep, not 6) is still at about the 22-23 over a downed defender at t07.61, while the carrier is about 15 yds away at about the 8, not the 12. Safety depths are overstated by 2-3 yds. The middle defender is off-frame at t06.17, so 'both over the far verticals' is unsupported. The 2.5 s throw time is a guess.

After the snap
Single-high held, man underneath. The near corner and a second defender converged on the near WR (t06.95). → Near-side WR on the quick out or hitch
Where it went
Right (near) side, short. Tackle at about the 38 near the near sideline (t08.26), matching the tag (+6, 1st down). Receiver not confirmed: at t06.95 the outside WR is about 9 yds deep (about the 41) turning back, while #87 is about 3.5 yds deep heading to the sideline flat. Either could be the catcher. Release and time not visible.
Coverage (final)
Single-high look: one LR at ~7-8 yds and none deeper, with the field in view to about the 50 (t04.33). Man vs zone is not separable, so Cover 1 vs Cover 3 cannot be separated.

Should have gone
Get the ball out fast: the quick 1-on-1 to the near-side (boundary) WR against the 5-yd cushion (hitch or out, about 5 yds), or the hot route against the extra rusher.
After the snap
Cover 1 man. The far receivers were covered step for step (t09.06), a hole defender sat at about 6 yds, and one safety stayed deep (t10.50). → A quick throw before the rush got home. By t10.50 the near-side vertical had a step on his man, but Ashton was already under pressure.
Where it went
No throw. At t09.06 #4 is still in the pocket about 1.4 s after the snap with rushers through the middle. At t10.50 he is about 8 yds behind the line escaping. Tagged as a scramble for 0.
Coverage (final)
Single-high: one LR ~10 yds deep at the far hash, none deeper (t06.17). Cover 1 is plausible because far receivers and near #7 had a defender within ~1-2 yds at t09.06, but Cover 3 cannot be excluded.

Film notes
t07.61: one safety about 9 yds deep, apexes 2-3 yds off, about 8 near the line vs 6 blockers. That is a pressure look, and the rule is to get the ball out fast. At t09.06 #4 is still holding with rushers through; at t10.50 he is about 8 yds deep escaping. The routes and any window at 0.5-1 s fall between frames.
Second look
The rushers are already 3-5 yds deep at t09.06. Whether a hot window existed falls between frames, so 'cannot tell' stands. The claim that the near vertical had a step at t10.50 is unverified.

Single-high (Cover 1/3) with a soft near corner
Should have gone
Single high about 8 yds over the ball, near CB about 5.3 yds off, no near overhang, box about 7 (t04.73). Attack the isolated near side: a quick throw or perimeter throw there. Give the run only if the box goes light.
After the snap
The near corner backed off about 2 yds at the snap (t06.17), the LBs stepped downhill, and the single safety held the middle. → The quick throw to the near WR in front of the retreating corner
Where it went
Right (near) side, short (short right, +7 to about the 45). Receiver not confirmed. The near WR hand-fights the CB at about the 45 in t07.61, t09.06 and t10.50, which looks like a stalk block. At t07.61 a back is about 6 yds behind the line on the near side, facing #4. By t10.50 a WG player reaches that block at about the 44, which fits a swing/flat throw. #4 is about 8-9 yds deep at t07.61, so the throw was likely 2 s or more after the snap.

t04.73: one safety about 8 yds deep and the near corner 5-6 yds off with no near overhang. At t06.17 the corner backs off and the LBs step downhill. The quick throw to the near WR (about 1.5 s) gained 7 (t07.61/t09.06, tag Pass R). The throw was still sound.
Second look
Pre-snap picture confirmed (t04.73). #4 is still about 8-9 yds deep at t07.61 and appears to hold the ball, which argues against a 1.5 s throw. The corner backed off about 1.2 yds, not 2. 'Acceptable' stands because the ball went to the near side for +7.

R (bottom, the boundary): a glance against the boundary CB playing ~7 yds off is a sound answer to a single-high look. Single-high is only partly verified. t07.61 shows 1 deep defender at ~10 yds near the middle of the field, but the frame ends ~11 yds past the LOS, so a 2nd high safety could be off-frame.

Verified: two ~7-8-yd defenders pre-snap who bail to ~11-12 yds by t09.06. Receivers are tightly covered at t09.06 and t10.50; the bottom flat has a defender within ~1 yd. The 1.4-s gap after the snap hides any early window, so 'cannot tell' holds. Minor: the top CB is ~2-3 yds off (not 3-4), and the deeper bottom defender is not clearly 'outside'.

Pre-snap look
safeties: One middle-of-field defender at about 8-9 yds (between the hashes, on the field side of the ball) and a second at about 5 yds. The near-side ~9 yds of field is out of frame, so a second deep player there can't be ruled out.; corners: Boundary (top) defenders sit about 3-4 yds off the squeezed receivers. The near-side corner is not visible.; apex: No clear apex. The receivers are squeezed in tight and the defenders are tight to the box.; box count: About 6-7 near the box (4-5 DL + 2 LB) vs 5 OL + RB; motion response: No motion
Pre-snap read
Middle of the field closed but shallow: a single-high/robber look with the safety at only ~8-9 yds (low confidence)
Should have gone
Single-high rule: get behind the shallow middle defender. The inside receiver's seam/vertical at 12-18 yds is the throw on 2nd & 15 if the linebackers don't carry it.
After the snap
Both middle defenders dropped to about 10-12 yds and bracketed the deep middle route (t07.61). The rush reached the QB by about 2 s. → No clear open receiver is visible.
Where it went
No throw. Ashton (#4) scrambled for +10 (tag Scramble, direction left) after pressure visible at t07.61. Snap was between t04.73 and t06.17.
Coverage (final)
Cover 1 (likely; single-high with a robber/hole defender)
Open receiver
None clearly open before the pressure. At t07.61 the top vertical had two LR defenders within ~2 yds, and the crosser had a defender ~2-3 yds away. By t10.50 the vertical was ~2-3 yds past a trailing defender around LR 27, but the QB was already scrambling, so it can't be seen whether a throw was available.

Concept seen
Two top-side receivers released: one vertical up the top hash (t07.61, t09.06, t10.50) and one crossing ~5 yds deep. The RB released to the bottom. The play turned into a scramble to the QB's left.
Film notes
t04.73: one MOF defender ~8-9 yds, 2nd ~5; near ~9 yds of field out of frame. t06.17-t07.61 both drop to ~11 and bracket the middle vertical; rusher on QB at t07.61. Frames ~1.4 s apart: can't see if the seam was open before pressure.
Second look
t04.73: deep defender about 9.6 yds (feet just in front of the 37), second about 5.4 yds. t07.61 tight zoom: a WG receiver about 10 yds deep in the middle is sandwiched by two LR defenders, so the bracket is real.

Single-high, but the safety is about 9.5 yds deep on the boundary/ball hash, not 12-13. Field CB 5-6 yds off with inside leverage. Apex only about 2 yds off the LOS, on the slot's inside shoulder (not 4-6). Boundary CB pressed. Pre-snap answer: the field WR's outside-breaking 1-on-1 (12-15 yds) or the field slot, away from the safety.
After the snap
Cover 1 (man-free). The field corner and apex trailed the WR and slot tightly. The safety held at ~13-14 yds and drifted toward the boundary, over the top WR (t05.35-t06.34). → Field vertical, the 1-on-1 away from the safety with no help over the top, or throw it away. The boundary WR was doubled.
Where it went
Right/boundary side, intermediate per the tag (intermediate right R), incomplete. The ball is not visible. Two boundary routes fit: the WR at about 12-13 yds with the CB trailing and the S converging, and the inside receiver (#12-ish) breaking to the far sideline at about 10 yds (t06.34).

Second look
Missed read is not supported. t05.35: field CB 2-3 yds over the top of the field WR (not trailing) and slot covered at about 5 yds, so the field answer was gone.

Should have gone
Work the field, away from the safety: the best 1-on-1 past the sticks. That is the field WR vs the 3-yd corner (fade/comeback at 14+) or the slot vs the apex on a seam/option route. On 3rd & 14 the ball has to reach about 14 yds.
After the snap
Cover 1. The field corner and apex stayed on the WR and slot (t04.61), the safety stayed high at ~13 yds, and the RB's release to the field drew an underneath defender. → Field 1-on-1 past the sticks if the release was won. Otherwise throw it away. Not determinable at the moment of the throw.

t03.29 to t04.73 confirm the motion, the apex bump and the middle defender backing off. At t07.61 the field receivers at 12-13 yds have LR defenders at about 13.5 and 17 yds, so no 14+ option is visibly open. Acceptable holds.

Second look
Outcome holds: the ball went to the boundary as called, with the pile at the far sideline around the 15 (t07.86, t09.10) and +7. Minor issue with the shell: t02.89 shows one deep defender about 13-14 yds over the far hash and one about 12 yds at the far numbers.

Pre-snap two-high is confirmed (t04.02). But the throw, the target and the release time are not on any frame (t04.92 to t06.73). The 'match' comes only from the tag zone, and the ball fell incomplete under pressure after about 2.3 s. Calling it 'acceptable' needs the target, which the frames don't show.

Pre-snap read
Two-high (quarters or 2-man) with press on the boot-side WR
Should have gone
At t05.50 two low safeties sit about 6.5-7.5 yd deep, inside the hashes. The boot-side WR is pressed about 2 yd, and the edge defender stands outside the TE. On 3rd & 7, the naked-right answer should be the boot-side route that reaches the sticks (crosser or out at 7+ yd), with the flat as the late outlet.
After the snap
Middle safety stayed ~8 yd; edge defender did not bite and chased the boot; flat route trailed tightly (t08.06, t09.33). Exact shell unclear → Flat/underneath to the boot side if the crosser is not open, thrown on time before the edge closes
Where it went
The throw is not visible. At t09.33 (about 3 s after a snap between t05.50 and t06.78), the QB is still holding at roughly the LOS (about the 13-14). The boot-side WR is about 11 yd deep with a DB on top. Tag: short right, complete, +4.

The safeties are shallower than stated. No frame shows the throw: the QB is still holding at about the LOS at t09.33, more than 3 s after the snap. A +4 short-right ball on 3rd & 7 is short of the sticks. 'Acceptable' is not supported by the frames.

Two-high quarters (Cover 4)
Should have gone
Pre-snap is confirmed at t03.57: two-high (about 10 yd near, about 8.5 yd far), apexes about 3-3.5 yd, near CB about 6 yd off, 5-man box. The answer is field-side quick game. On 3rd & 4 the first choice is the slot stick or a throw that reaches the sticks. The RB swing is right only if the apex sits inside.
After the snap
Two-deep held (t06.74); near apex widened toward the flat, CB sat ~6 yd, both rallied to the swing → If the apex widens to the swing, throw the slot stick; otherwise the swing, which needs a faster RB release
Where it went
Right (field) RB swing, caught about 3 yd behind the LOS (near the 9 at t06.74). The snap fell between t03.57 and t04.63, and the QB was still holding at t05.69, so the release came about 2 s after the snap, not 1.5. The RB was tackled near the 13 for +1 on 3rd & 4 (t07.80, tag).

Yet they grade the swing 'acceptable'. At t05.69 the apex is about 4.5 yd deep near the slot, with no clear widening. At 1 s spacing the frames can't show whether the apex moved before or after the release. Catch depth and timing were also understated.

By the numbers the field side (offense's left) was the open side. The CB was about 10-11 yd off at the numbers, the S about 10 yd at the near hash, and nobody was over the slot. The boundary now-screen faced 3 defenders within about 6 yd (CB about 5.5, DB about 5.5, overhang about 2.5) with only 2 WRs. A field throw would have needed a pre-snap check, though, because no field route was run.
After the snap
The 3 boundary defenders sat down and attacked the screen. The field CB held at about 8-9 yd. The field safety came downhill toward the slot (zone/match) → Still the field-side underneath throw. The boundary screen had no numbers

Boundary (offense's right) now-screen behind the LOS, to a boundary WR who came back while the other boundary WR blocked.

Throw to lone far WR releasing to the far pylon
Film notes
t04.73: 2-high red-zone shell (S ~7 and ~10, CBs at GL), 6v6 box, boundary overhang ~5, soft underneath. t07.61: OL convoy right, carrier at the 2; t09.06 TD in far EZ. Underneath vs 2-high is textbook. Catcher ID and release time not visible.
Second look
Alignment checked against the yard lines on t04.73: CBs at the GL, S at the 1 and about 2-3 yd deep in the end zone, 6v6 box, no near-side apex. All matches. The ball is not visible, but the tags, the OL convoy and the TD are consistent. Weak spots: 'likely the wing/TE' is a guess (the tagged receiver ID is the same one who caught the clip 64 boundary screen). The release may have come before t06.17. At t06.17 the deep S bailed deeper rather than drifting to the middle.

safeties: One deep, about 11 yd near mid-field. The near-side DB at about 7 yd is probably a CB; corners: Boundary CB about 9-10 yd off with no WG receiver aligned to that side. Near-side DBs at about 7 yd and about 2-3 yd; the near WRs are partly out of frame; apex: Boundary LB/overhang about 5 yd off. A field-side edge defender stood about at the LOS; box count: 6 (3 DL + 3 LB/edge) vs 5 OL; motion response: No motion seen (t00.40 vs t02.13)
Pre-snap read
Single-high (Cover 3/1 family) with the boundary CB bailed. Low confidence
Should have gone
Can't fully judge, because the 3-WR field side (strength left) is mostly off-frame. The boundary look made a screen right reasonable: one WR at the sideline vs an inside defender about 3-4 yd off and a CB about 7-8 yd off, one deep about 10 yd in the middle, and a 5-6 man box.
After the snap
Cannot tell. The OL convoy was set to the boundary by t04.73, and a defender was in the backfield near the QB at t03.87 (normal on a screen) → Cannot tell

Screen right (boundary) according to the tags (direction right, short right, pass type SCREEN, incomplete). The OL convoy is headed to the boundary by t04.73. The ball and the target are not visible in any frame.

Second look
But t02.13 shows a white-helmet player (WG helmet; Hebron's are dark) split at the boundary sideline near the LOS. From t03.00 to t04.73 he runs downfield with a defender trailing. I measure the boundary depths at about 3-4 and 7-8 yd, not 5 and 9-10. The field side is mostly off-frame and the ball is never seen, so 'acceptable' isn't supported.

Agree on side, match and verdict. One correction: the shell is not single-high. Measured against the yard lines in t06.17, the deepest defender is only ~6 yd off and sits outside the far hash by the far 40 numbers. Nobody plays the middle of the field, so this is Cover 0, which makes the screen an even better answer. The ~2 s throw time is an estimate.

t10.50 (last frame, still pre-snap; snap is after the frames end): two safeties ~11-12 yd, off near CB, motion to near wing drew no rotation. Two-high rule = underneath to trips side. Hudl tag says deep right incomplete, but routes, safety reaction and the throw are not on film here.
Second look
Confirmed t06.17-t10.50 are all pre-snap and the #87 motion drew no safety rotation. Small corrections: both safeties measure ~10-10.5 yd, not 11-12. The 'far hash' safety is actually between the middle of the field and the near hash. 'No' is based on the tag alone. 'Cannot tell' is correct because routes, post-snap rotation and the throw are not visible.

Second look
The pre-snap claims check out in t01.84. 'Acceptable' rests on 'throw likely late', which the film does not show: the ball, the target and the release are all invisible. At t06.17 a rusher is engaged with the RB beside the QB, and the first contact on the QB area shows at t07.61, not ~t06.17. By the same standard used for clip 101, this should be 'cannot tell'.

Second look
Agree on read and verdict. Small corrections from the line and hash measurements in t03.07: the safety is basically mid-field rather than 'shaded away'; the far apex is ~3 yd deep, not ~5; the near CB is ~6 yd off, not 3-4. In t04.40-t05.73 the safety holds the middle and the CB carries the WR vertically. The catch point (~own 40, ~19 air yards) is approximate.

safeties: Two deep at about 7.5-8 yds. The field-side safety started near midfield at t00.40 and slid about 3 yds toward the ball with the motion, ending about 4-5 yds field-side of the ball. The boundary safety sat about 7 yds outside the near hash, over the stack.; corners: Field CB about 6 yds off the lone WR at the far numbers, head-up and soft. The boundary stack at the near numbers was played by two defenders: the inside one at about 2.9 yds and the outside one at about 4.7 yds.; apex: Field apex/OLB about 1.7 yds deep and about 4.5 yds outside the RT, out of the box (he was over the H-back before the motion). Boundary stack defender at 2.9 yds inside the stack, also out of the box.; box count: 5 in the box (3 DL plus 2 LB at about 4.3-4.5 yds) against 5 OL plus the RB. Light box.; motion response: The field safety slid about 3 yds toward the motion and the ball. The LBs and the field apex held (LB spots unchanged from t02.40 to t03.40). No defender ran with the motion man, which points to zone.
Pre-snap read
Two-high zone, quarters/cover-2 family. Safeties shallow at about 7.5 yds, field CB soft, safety rolling toward the motion.
Should have gone
Underneath: the called screen to the left (boundary) flat, about 2-3 yds behind the LOS, to the motion man or back. At t03.40 there are two deep at about 7.4-7.6 yds, LBs at about 4.3, the field apex at about 1.7 and out of the box, boundary stack defenders at about 2.7 and 4.5, and a 5-man box (3 DL + 2 LB) against 5 OL + RB. The boundary was outnumbered (2 stack defenders plus the boundary S against 2 blockers, with the field S sliding over), so a short gain was the expectation.
After the snap
Two-high zone held. The field CB bailed with the vertical, the field safety stayed about 8-9 yds deep, and the boundary safety and both stack defenders came downhill on the flat. → Same answer: the left-flat swing was the only quick underneath throw visible. The field WR was on a vertical against a bailing CB with a safety over the top, so he was not an in-front throw.
Where it went
Left (boundary) flat, about 2-3 yds behind the LOS. Most likely the motion man: at t04.40 he is in the boundary flat facing the QB while the RB is still about 5 yds deep. The QB holds the ball at t04.40, so the release came between t04.40 and about t05.40, roughly 1 s after the snap (plus or minus 0.7 s). The runner is tackled near own 43 at t07.40 for -1 (tag: Complete, -1, short left, L).
Coverage (final)

Film notes
t03.40: two-high (~7.5 yd safeties), 5-man box, soft field CB, field S slid ~3 yds with motion, no man turn. Called swing to the left flat is the underneath answer vs 2-high and the ball went there (QB holds at t04.40, out by t05.40). The -1 came from 3 boundary defenders vs 2 stack blockers, not the read.
Second look
Pre-snap measurements hold on t03.40, and the field S slid about 4 yds toward the motion between t02.40 and t03.40. The ball to the boundary flat matches the underneath answer, and the -1 near own 43 at t07.40 matches the tag. Refuted post-snap claims: at t04.40 the field CB had not bailed (still about 3.7 yds off the LOS, about 5 yds of cushion, not 6). The field S was about 8.5 deep but only 1-2 yds field-side of the ball, nowhere near 'over the top' of the far WR. The boundary S came down about 1 yd. That could be a rotation to single-high or just pursuit of the screen, and from t05.40 on the camera zooms and the field side is out of frame. 'Two-high held / not disguised' is not shown, so the post-snap match is unclear. The receiver was probably the motion man, about 2-3 yds (not 1-2) behind the LOS.

After the snap
Quarters / two-deep drop. Both safeties bailed to about 10.5-12.5 yds and both CBs bailed (the boundary CB was about 12 yds deep at t08.63). Apexes and LBs played underneath, and only the 3 DL are visibly rushing. → The comeback by #10 in front of the bailing boundary CB: at the break in t08.63 the CB is about 1.5 yds deeper than #10. The boundary safety carried #87 over the top, with an underneath defender inside him.

At t10.00 the receiver is diving back at the near sideline around the 50. Only correction: the catch point was about 7-8 yds, not 8-9, and short of the sticks.

Two-high type. #22 at about 10-12 yds on the far half and a near defender at about 10 yds; #9/#11 drop underneath in the hooks; #21 trails the boundary vertical; #40 stays near the LOS. → Underneath in front of 2-high: #86 shallow crosser to the right at about 4-5 yds, or the checkdown. The boundary go was trailed tightly by #21.

Film notes
Pre-snap t04.90: tight view, only one deep defender (~10 yds) visible; near/deep-middle off-frame. QB still holding at t06.02; ball/target never shown (t07.14, t08.27). Tag: incomplete, short right. Post-snap 2-high look, #9/#11 underneath, #86 crossing shallow right = likely target, unconfirmed.
Second look
t04.90 is the last pre-snap frame (OL down, QB/RB set). Refuted details: (1) #87 and the walked-up defender are at the near hash, about 17 yds from the far-hash ball, so #87 is not a tight slot and the defender is not at the box edge (a490 zoom). (2) The '#86 shallow crosser' is an OL: big build, and the back number starts with 6 at t08.27 (t07.14, t08.27). So the post-snap answer has no support. Cannot tell still stands.

Pre-snap read
Shell cannot be told (safeties out of frame). Soft/off coverage over #10 on the boundary.

A quick throw to #10 on the near/boundary side (offense left) fits the look: no defender within about 3 yds of #1 or #10 and a 6 vs 6 box (t01.16). The corner's cushion over #10 and the safeties are off-frame, so the claimed 5-8 yd cushion can't be seen.

Second look
Timing confirmed: snap t01.92, catch t03.43. Depth refuted: at t03.43, #1 is face-to-face blocking at about the LOS (still engaged at t04.19), and #10 is about 2 yds deeper. Yard lines and near-side numbers put the catch 1-2 yds behind the LOS, so this is a quick screen, not a 4-5 yd hitch. The defender over #10 is off-frame in t01.16. The play converted, but the soft corner can't be confirmed, so acceptable rather than right read.

OL and DL are already engaged and #87 has moved 6+ yds, so the snap was about t05.0-5.5 and the 1 s +/-0.5 estimate is too tight. Also, #87 lined up as a near-side wing behind the near tackle (n473 zoom) and then crossed; he was not a far wing.

I agree with 'cannot tell': at t03.29, 9 of 11 defenders are in frame and none is deep. The claim that he was hit as he released is not supported: #4 has the ball in both hands at t06.17, t07.61 shows a defender in front of him with no visible ball or contact, and he is still moving right at t09.06. Release time is unknown; the tag says deep middle, INT.

Pre-snap read
Two-high (quarters type) with 3 defenders (CB, apex, S) over the 3-man cluster

The two-high look at t10.50 roughly holds (my reads: far S ~9.4 yds, near S ~7.8, near CB ~7.8, far CB ~5.8, apex ~4.3 inside the cluster, 6-man box vs 6). That points to a throw underneath, in front of the safeties, but t10.50 is not shown to be the look at the snap.

t10.50 (last pre-snap; frames end at the snap): two safeties at ~8-9 and ~7.5 yds, CBs ~5 and ~7 off, apex ~4 yds inside the 3-man cluster, 6-man box vs 6. The two-high rule puts the ball in front of the safeties to the cluster, and the tag says intermediate right complete, 49-yd TD. No post-snap frames, so the read is not seen on film.
Second look
The shell numbers roughly hold at t10.50 (safeties ~9.4 and ~7.8 yds, CBs ~5.8 and ~7.8, apex ~4.3, 6-man box). But the frames stop before the snap in a 26.5 s clip, and the near-side WRs are still upright and adjusting at t10.50, so the look at the snap is unseen. A right read is not shown on film.

Film notes
End-zone corner angle compresses depth. At t09.06 (last pre-snap) the near slot defender is walked up ~1 yd and the CB is ~3-5 off #84; nothing is visible deep in the near end zone, and the middle/far side is unreadable. A WG player is moving at t07.61-t09.06. t10.50 is the only post-snap frame. Tag: intermediate left incomplete.
Second look
I agree. At t09.06 the high corner angle shows only the near side (offense's right): the CB is a few yds off #84 and a defender is tight on slot #1. The deep defenders and the far left side, where the tag puts the ball (intermediate left, mid left), cannot be measured. t10.50 is the only post-snap frame, so 'cannot tell' is the honest call.

Should have gone
1st & 10 against two-high: one deep defender per half at about 9-10 yd and a soft near CB (t01.50). By the two-high rule, throw in front of the shell: near-side short or intermediate in front of the soft CB. The post only becomes the answer if the shell bails after the snap.
After the snap
Quarters bail: near CB and near S both retreated toward the goal line (out of frame by t03.69-t04.78), leaving a 15-20 yd void in front of them → Near-side post at 15-20 yd in front of the bailing deep pair
Where it went
A post of about 18-22 yd, released from the near side and caught in the middle of the field. The tackle at the 2 is between the hashes at t06.97 (intermediate middle). #15 is legible on the post near the right edge at t04.78, but the catch itself is not seen. At t04.78 QB #4 is in a left-arm follow-through and there is a possible ball in flight mid-field. Release is about t4.2-4.7, or about 2-2.7 s after a snap between t01.50 and t02.59.

Second look
The pre-snap safeties sat at 9-10 yd, so a 15-20 yd post is behind them, not 'in front'. The post-snap bail (t02.59-t03.69) did make the post a good throw. The catch spot is the middle, not the right side, and the catcher is inferred from tracking.

Pressure look. #11 was about 4 yd off the near WR (t00.40-t03.29), then walked down to the LOS beside the near tackle (t04.73) and was still at the line at t06.17. That puts 7 near the box against 6 blockers. On 2nd & 17, the answer is a hot or rhythm throw: near outside WR hitch or out in front of #21 (soft, about 9 yd, outside leverage), or the RB check-down.
After the snap
#21 trailed the outside WR vertically (man-match); #11 sat tight on the inside WR at ~10 yd → Cannot confirm. By t09.06 both near-side routes were covered tight, so underneath/check-down looks like the best answer

Two-high zone (quarters/Cover 2), soft on 3rd & 17

Soft zone. Every defender in frame is 6-10 yds deep: #21 ~8-9 on the trips (near/WG right) side, a middle defender ~6-7, and a far-side pair ~8-9. The deep far side is out of frame, so the frames can't show whether it's 2-high or 3-deep. Against a soft zone with the play on 3rd & 17, the answer is the middle hook/spacing route underneath for catch-and-run.
After the snap
2-deep zone held (#21 stayed deep); underneath droppers sat in middle hooks and rallied (t07.61) → Same: middle ~8-10 yds; nothing visible at the sticks vs 2 deep
Where it went
Throw and catch are not visible. The tag has intermediate middle, complete, +10. At t09.06 #84 is in the middle around own 34-35 with #6 closing, so he is the likely target. QB still holding the ball at t07.61; release falls between t07.61 and t09.06. Snap is after t06.17, so 0-2.9 s.

Snap falls between t06.17 and t07.61, so timing is +/-0.7 s or more.
Second look
t06.17 works as the last pre-snap frame. No defender deeper than ~10 yds is in frame: the far pair is ~8-9 yds, level with the umpire, and #21 is ~8-9, not ~11. The claimed ~15-yd far deep defender is not visible, so 2-high is unproven. Underneath still fits a soft look. The catch is not shown and intermediate middle/+10 comes from the tag. Shell unconfirmed and the throw ended 7 short, so acceptable.

Near side (WG right): #84 hitch/curl at ~7-8 yds against #21's ~8-yd cushion; the near overhang sits ~5 yds over the slot. On the far side, 2 defenders at ~5-7 yds (not ~12) are over lone #17, so avoid that side.
After the snap
Zone with the corner bailing: #21 ran deep on the near side; far-side defenders stayed on #17/#1 near the far hash → Same: #84 sat down ~11 yds near side, open (t10.50: nearest defender #21 about 10 yds away)
Where it went
Far side (WG left), ~15 yds (just past midfield), to #17. #1 crosses from the near slot into the same area. At t10.50 a defender's hand is in and the ball is in the air beyond them; incomplete (intermediate left, L). Release likely between t09.06 and t10.50, about 2-3.5 s after a snap between t06.17 and t07.61.
Coverage (final)
Two-high soft shell; Quarters plausible (#21 bailed, inside defender drove on #1)
Open receiver
#84 settled near the sideline about 10 yards deep, past the line to gain. #21 had bailed well behind him and no underneath defender was near (t10.50). He settled after the ball appears to have arrived at #1, who was contested (t09.06).

Concept seen
#84 pushed vertical on the near side, then settled about 10 yards deep. Inside receiver #1 ran an intermediate route into the safety's lane. #17 ran on the far side. The ball appears to reach #1 as a defender makes contact (t09.06).
Film notes
t06.17: #21 ~10 yds off #84 on the near side; far side has 2 defenders ~12 deep. Pre-snap answer: #84 curl past the sticks. Ball went far side, mid depth (intermediate left), to #17; a defender's hand is in and the ball is on the turf (t10.50), while #84 is open ~11 yds at own 46. Caveat: #84 may not have turned yet when the ball left (~t09.06).
Second look
Verdict holds: at t06.17 the cushion is on #84 on the near side, and the ball went to the far side into a contested 2-on-1 (t10.50). Correction: the far-side pair sits ~5-7 yds, in front of the ~10-yd official, not ~12. Post-snap: at t09.06 #84 is still running vertically with #21 bailing ahead of him. His sit-down at ~11 yds (t10.50) comes after the release, so 'no' on the post-snap match can't be shown.

The near outside receiver settled at about 10 yards and slot #15 broke inside at about 6 to 8 yards. The pocket was clean at t05.92. By t07.30 an edge rusher was on the back and Ashton moved off his spot. He was tackled after a short scramble (t08.69).
Film notes
t04.54: 2-high ~10 yds, corners ~7 off, 6-man box. t05.92: clean pocket, QB at the top of his drop. By t07.30 he has climbed and a rusher is behind him; t08.69 tackled after a +2 run left. The 1.4 s gaps hide whether pressure forced it or an underneath man was open, so this can't be graded.
Second look
Pre-snap picture checks out (t03.16 and t04.54 are identical, all set; safeties ~8-9). No throw, scramble +2 per tag and t08.69/t10.07. Can't be graded because the 1.4-s gaps hide whether a quick underneath throw was there before the pocket closed. Only correction: the scramble went roughly straight upfield near the far hash; left vs right can't be confirmed (tag says R).

Stack release. Outside WR goes vertical/corner and takes the CB. Inside WR breaks to the flat/out. Caught and run to the 5 (t06.30, t07.49).
Film notes
Last pre-snap t02.76 (set t01.58): boundary/near side shows an apex off the slot and two defenders soft at ~7-9 yds; far safety out of frame (low sideline angle). Answer = quick game in front. #15 caught it short outside on the near side and ran out near the 5 (t05.12-t07.49): 9 yds, 1st down.
Second look
Supported. At t02.76 the near stack has an apex over it and two softer near defenders, who came forward at t03.94. The ball carrier is on the near side at t06.30 and is tackled at the sideline at t07.49 while #87 stands beside the play, so the carrier is the other stack receiver. Minor error: dark defenders sit at the top edge of t02.76, so the far-side defender is likely in frame.

About a 4-man rush with 7 in coverage; at t06.17 every visible receiver has a defender within ~1-2 yds (quarters match/man-like); a deep defender stays over the near side → With visible receivers matched, hold/escape and scramble or throw away; the right-side running lane was available

Routes to the near side. All three visible routes are trailed hip-tight in t06.17. The far WR ran shallow with the defender over the top.
Film notes
t03.29/t01.84: two-high, corners off ~8-9, ~6 box; answer was underneath. At t06.17 Ashton (#4) is set in the pocket and each visible receiver has a defender within ~1-2 yds; he escapes by t07.61 and scrambles right for 9 (t09.06-t10.50). No throw, but a productive scramble on 1st & goal.
Second look
The scramble is supported: #4 is legible at t06.17 and t10.50. 'Acceptable' is not. At t06.17 the far-side WR (top left) is sitting with the nearest deep defender several yards off and an underneath defender inside, so 'every receiver within 1-2 yds' is overstated. Frames 1.44 s apart cannot show whether that window was open.

Get the ball out on rhythm in front of the end-zone defenders: a quick slant or out to the near (left) WR or slot at the goal line. The near side is 3 defenders over 2 receivers and the near CB is about 8 yds deep in the end zone, so it is not 1-on-1 and not a fade.

Coverage (final)

Film notes
t06.17: 2nd & goal at 6, nobody deeper than ~8 yds, ~7 near the box. t07.61 suggests 4 rush/7 drop; near WR and far receiver covered at ~1 s. Ashton set at t07.61, wrapped by a rusher at t09.06 (~2-2.5 s). Frames do not show whether a quick throw was open, so no verdict.
Second look
The sack timing and 'cannot tell' hold (t07.61, t09.06). The near side shows the CB about 8 yds deep in the end zone, a goal-line defender between the WR and slot, and an apex inside, so it is 3 over 2. That is not '1-on-1', and a fade into a deep-aligned CB is not the read.

On 4th & goal from the 18 the ball must reach the end zone: take the best end-zone matchup. The coverage shell cannot be confirmed from frames, and #15 underneath cannot convert.

Where it went
No throw seen. The 12-yd scramble to the 6 comes only from the tag. #4 is not identifiable after the snap, and no runner is past the line through t10.50, so the scramble is not in these frames.

No throw, end-zone receiver in tight trail (t07.61, t09.06) and 'cannot tell' hold. At t03.29 only about 9 of 11 defenders are in frame, so 'two-high' is not confirmable.

RPO - inside zone fake, bubble/now throw to near slot
Film notes
t01.31: CB 8 yds soft, apex tight to the box, 6-7 in the box vs 5 OL, so the bubble to slot #1 is the RPO answer. The apex crashed at the snap (t02.22), so the throw was correct by rule. The field safety rolled down unblocked (t03.13-t04.04) and tackled #1 for -2 (t05.86).
Second look
t01.31 confirms the soft CB, the tucked apex and two deep at ~10. At t02.22 (snap in flight) the apex is already moving downhill and inside, so the bubble is correct by RPO rule. Caveats: the near safety's fill (t03.13-t04.04) also fits a reactive alley fit, so 'disguised rotation' is not provable at ~0.9 s spacing; a possible TE makes the blocker count 6, not 5.

Two-high held: the near safety stayed wide on the 2-receiver side, the far deep defender carried trips #2 vertical but lost inside leverage, Mike dropped to ~9 yds. 4-man rush (Quarters/2-read) → Trips #2 vertical won inside the far deep defender while the near safety stayed wide, so the far middle third was open

Film notes
t02.99: two-high (~8 yds far over trips, ~9 near) on 4th & 8, so the pre-snap rule says sticks, underneath. He held ~2.6 s, saw #2 beat the far deep defender inside with the near safety staying wide (t05.58-t06.88), and threw deep for +34 to ~4 (t09.47). Not the pre-snap answer, but the right post-snap read.
Second look
t02.99 confirms two-high with the middle open. t06.88: the near safety is still wide, the Mike is ~10 yds deep, and the receiver has beaten the far deep defender inside. Labeling nit: '#2 (inside receiver)' is contradictory, because #2 is the middle receiver; the receiver ID is only moderately certain. Snap and release times are +/-0.5 s.

Pre-snap read
Single-high, Cover 3/1 family.
Should have gone
Quick perimeter throw to the near (R) side vs a 7-man box: the near overhang is ~5 yds deep and well inside, the near CB ~5.4 yds off, so 2 receivers face 1 CB. The answer holds, but the target is outside WR #84 with slot #87 blocking the CB, not 'slot #84 / WR #87'.
After the snap
Single-high held: the FS stayed in the deep middle, the far CB bailed, the far overhang came down (Cover 3). The near overhang widened late toward #84, and a rusher was loose in the backfield by t04.91 → Same answer: near slot #84 quick, with #87 sealing the CB

Near (R) side, short, to #84, who was the OUTSIDE receiver pre-snap. Slot #87 ran up and blocked the near CB (t02.66-t03.79). Caught ~0-1 yd past the LOS around t04.91, ~1.6-2.4 s after the snap at ~t02.2-2.4. +12 per tag.

Second look
Zooms of t01.53, t02.66 and t03.79 show #84 aligned outside and #87 in the slot. The read and location are still right. The coverage label is shaky: a far defender ~7 yds over the far slot (t01.53) may be a 2nd safety.

Should have gone
Pressure look from BOTH edges: the near apex and the far overhang both walked to the LOS by t03.28 (5 on the line, 2 LBs at ~5 yds) vs two safeties at ~7 yds and CBs at ~6-7. The hot answer is a quick throw to either slot at 3-5 yds in front of its safety, not only the near slot.
After the snap
5-6 man pressure with both safeties staying high and matching the slots (near safety on top of the near slot by t04.71). Two-high pressure with man-match; two rushers free in the backfield at t04.71 → The hot window looked tight (near safety ~3 yds on the slot at t04.71) and two rushers were free, so escaping to run was the viable answer

t03.28: near apex walked to the LOS vs 2 safeties at ~8, a blitz tell, so the hot answer was the near slot. No hot throw. By t04.71 two rushers were free and the near safety was capping the slot. He escaped (t06.15), crossed the LOS ~t07.59 and ran 15 for a TD. The hot window is not clearly visible; the result was good.
Second look
This refutes 'far overhang stayed off': from t01.84 to t03.28 the far edge LB moved up ~2 yds to the LOS. At t04.71 the near slot is capped by the safety and 2 defenders are in the backfield, but the far slot is ~3.6 yds downfield with the safety ~11 deep. The hot window falls between frames, and the TD does not prove the read.

t06.17: one S ~10 shaded to boundary bunch, field CB 3-4 yds, no help to field -> field 1-on-1. t09.06-t10.50: man w/ robber, all trailed; field #1 comeback ~2-3 yds open late. No throw by t10.50; Hudl scramble +15 happens after last frame, so it is unseen.
Second look
The single-high pre-snap read and the field 1-on-1 answer are confirmed (t06.17). But at t10.50 the field #1 comeback (CB ~3 yds over the top) and a deep crosser (~2 yds clear of his man) were both coming open. The scramble decision happens off-frame, and pressure cannot be resolved. 'Acceptable' rests only on the Hudl tag, so this is cannot tell.

Single-high, 3-deep look. The FS is about 12 yds deep in the middle of the field, not shaded to the R hash. A second deep defender sits about 12-13 yds deep on the far numbers, the near CB is about 8 off, and the apex is about 5 yds over the motioned left slot. Standard answer: the motioned left slot's seam (between the near deep third and the FS), or a 12-18 yd hole, with the left dig in front of the 8-yd CB underneath.
After the snap
About 2 s after the snap, 4 defenders were deep at 12-16 yds (far CB bailed, boundary S ~13, FS ~16 over the right hash, near CB ~12): quarters-type or Cover 3 with a deep curl drop; exact call not identifiable → Intermediate-deep window between the deep and underneath defenders (post/seam), or the left dig in front of the bailing CB
Where it went
Not visible in any frame. Tags: +20 to MCK 6, but direction left conflicts with intermediate right. At t10.50 there are navy receivers at about MCK 8-9 far-middle between two defenders and at about MCK 12 near-middle.

Tags conflict (intermediate right vs direction left); catcher ID unconfirmed.
Second look
Zoomed against the hash rows, t06.17 shows the FS midway between the hashes, so the 'shaded right' premise is wrong. The far CB is about 4 yds off the far WR, not pressed. A second deep defender sits about 12 yds deep on the far numbers. The ball is not visible from t07.61 to t10.50 and the tags conflict (L vs intermediate right).

Second look
Zoomed t00.40 confirms the 2 defenders about 2 yds off the right pair. It also shows a third defender about 1.5 yds deep in the end zone directly behind them, and the S over the ball leaning toward that side. So the right corner was not '1-on-1 away from the safety'. At t03.30 the receiver is about 5 yds deep in the end zone with 3-4 defenders around him. It scored, but the frames do not show a clean pre-snap isolation.

After the motion, the deep S sits ON the far (field) hash at about 12 yds. A second defender sits about 8.5 yds deep just outside the near hash, inside the left pair. That leaves the middle of the field open (a two-high rotation), so the answer is underneath/in front: a quick right throw in front of the far CB (about 8 off the WR), or the motioned slot vs the 5-yd apex. Not the left vertical.
After the snap
Cover 3: #22 bailed and stayed on top of the left vertical, the far CB stayed deep over the far WR, the safety held middle-right and the apex trailed the right slot; 4-man rush → With the verticals capped, check down to the right flat (RB/short receiver near the LOS)

t04.32: single-high, safety slid toward the TE motion (right); left CB #22 ~4-5 yds with no deep help = best pre-snap 1-on-1 (left vertical). t07.27: #22 stayed on top, so the right-short checkdown was a fair post-snap choice, but it came 2+ s in and fell incomplete. Target not visible.
Second look
Zoomed t04.32 shows the S on the far hash at about 12, #22 about 5 yds off, and a defender about 8.5 yds deep inside the left pair who bailed to about 11 by t05.30. So the left vertical had deep help, and the 'no deep help' premise fails. After the snap there are 4 deep (#22, that defender, far S, far CB), which looks like quarters, not Cover 3.

Core holds: t02.45 two S ~7 yd, CBs ~6.5 and ~3 yd. Ball to #87 in the near flat at the LOS; tackled ~37 at t06.54-07.57 (+1). Caveat: the far S stayed field side over far #2 and there is no deep-middle defender (t05.52), so undisguised Quarters is as likely as 'disguised'. The far slot ran vertical through 6-7 yd (no settled window).

Film notes
t03.33 (last frame, still pre-snap): no deep MOF S (deepest ~7.5 yd over trips), ~7 in box vs 6, boundary X alone vs ~5-yd CB -> quick X 1-on-1/hot. Snap, throw and catch all occur after t03.33 (4.5 s clip). Hudl: direction left, intermediate left, +11, 4th down converted - consistent with the X side, but unseen.
Second look
The pre-snap answer holds: at t03.33 there is no deep defender (deepest ~7 yd over trips), near CB ~4-5 yd on X, ~7 in the box vs 6. But the defense did not hold its look: a ~8-yd middle defender (t00.40) walked down to ~5 yd by t02.08. All frames are pre-snap and the target is unseen, so the pre-snap match 'yes' is a guess from direction left.

Pre-snap read
Zero / pressure look: no high safety, 8 defenders at 5-9 yd
Should have gone
Zero look at t06.17: the deepest defender is about 8.5 yd, after creeping down from about 12.6 yd at t00.40 during the back's motion. Box is 5 vs 5 OL. That calls for a hot throw at the snap. Among routes actually run, the hot target was the inside trips receiver (~5-yd route, near side), or the near outside WR's vertical as the 1-on-1. The outside WR ran a vertical, not a hitch.
After the snap
Drop-8: only 3 DL rushed (t07.61), the other 8 bailed to depth in zone/match → With 8 in coverage and a 3-man rush: hold for an underneath window or check down, and scramble if it stays covered
Where it went
No throw. Ashton is still behind the LOS at t09.06 and at t10.50, roughly 3.3-3.6 s after a snap that falls between t06.17 and t07.61, with a rusher closing at t10.50. The +7 scramble toward the near side happens after the last frame (Hudl tag: Scramble 7, direction left).
Coverage (final)
Drop-8 zone with 3 deep at about 16-18 yds. Cover 3 is not confirmed: two of the deep defenders are on the far side, and nobody is deeper than about 11-12 yds between the hashes (t09.06). Pre-snap was not a clear single-high.

Film notes
t06.17: after RB motion pulled the ~12-yd safety (t00.40) down to ~9, nobody deep, 3 DL = zero/pressure look -> hot throw. t07.61: only 3 rushed, 8 dropped (disguise). Still holding at t09.06 (~2.5 s), then scrambled +7. Fine vs drop-8; 1.4-s frame gaps hide whether an underneath window opened earlier.
Second look
Zero look at t06.17 and the drop-8 (3 rushers) at t07.61 both check out. Refuted: the pre-snap answer names a near outside WR hitch that was never run. At t09.06 that WR is ~16 yd deep on a vertical. The hot target in this play was the inside trips receiver (~5 yd). QB held >3 s, still behind LOS at t10.50, then scrambled +7: acceptable vs drop-8.

Should have gone
Two shallow safeties at ~8-9 yd. The boundary overhang walked from ~5 yd (t00.40) to the LOS (t02.40), making a 7 v 6 box, so throw, not give. The throw is a quick one to the boundary, in front of the soft (~5.5 yd) corner, into the flat the overhang left.

Two-high/quarters-type: boundary overhang rushed, boundary corner bailed to ~9 yd, safeties held ~7-8 yd → Same: quick boundary throw underneath the bailing corner
Where it went
Boundary (near) outside WR #10 on a quick screen-type throw, caught about 1 yd behind the LOS around t04.40 (hands up for the ball). Release was ~0.7-1.2 s after the snap; the QB's arm is cocked at t03.40. Near slot #87 is stalk-blocking at ~3-4 yd (t04.40, t05.40). The run ends near the sideline around the opp 24-26 (+7 per tag).

Film notes
t02.40: two safeties ~8-9 yd; boundary overhang walked from ~5 yd (t00.40) to LOS -> 7 in box vs 6, so throw. Hot side = boundary in front of 7-yd corner, who bailed (t03.40). Boundary receiver caught ~3-4 yd (t04.40), forced out at 24 (t06.40-t07.40). +7, about 1.3 s.
Second look
Pre-snap read, side, timing and verdict all hold. The catch claim is refuted at t04.40: the player ~3-4 yd out (~27-28) is #87 blocking a defender, and he is still blocking at t05.40. #10 has his hands up for the ball ~1 yd behind the LOS. So this was a boundary screen-type throw, and most of the +7 came after the catch.

Two-high quarters look
Should have gone
Two shallow safeties at ~8 yd (t01.59), corners ~5-6 yd, 7 v 7 box, so the rule says take it underneath. But through t03.17 no underneath route is visible: the near WR and the far slot are going vertical and the TE is engaged. The frames cannot name a target, and the near-WR out/hitch was not run.
After the snap
Quarters-type: far safety carried the far slot vertical; near safety held flat at ~7 yd (run/PA fit), leaving the near corner alone on the near WR deep → Near-side WR deep (go/post), 1-on-1 vs the corner, with the near safety held shallow
Where it went
Not visible. The QB is still holding in the pocket at t03.17, more than 1.2 s after the snap, and the throw comes after the last frame. Only the Hudl tag shows the result: Complete TD 24, deep left, direction left (deep, offense's left/near side). The near WR is the only near-side vertical visible, but the receiver is not confirmed.
Coverage (final)
Not resolved. Pre-snap shows two defenders at about 8-8.6 yds, one over the far numbers and one on the near hash (t01.59), so single-high is not established. After the snap the far one bailed to about 11.6 and the near one sat at about 7 (t03.17).

Throw/catch are past last frame; deep-left TD comes from Hudl tag (deep left, direction left).
Second look
Shell confirmed at t01.59. But the pre-snap answer names a near-WR out/hitch he never ran: he is vertical with the corner over the top at t03.17. The throw, the receiver and the coverage at release all fall after the last frame; only the Hudl tag says deep-left TD. Calling it 'acceptable' is a guess the frames cannot support.

After the snap
Single-high: field corner bailed to ~10 yd, safety held ~11-12 yd, field apex crashed inside on the run action → Quick throw to the field-side slot into the flat the apex vacated
Where it went
Quick throw to the field side (offense's right). The snap is in the air at t03.77, and at t04.90 the ball is in flight toward the two field receivers (~1 s after the snap). At that moment one is ~0.5 yd past the LOS and the other ~2 yd behind it. So the catch was at about the LOS (screen-type), not ~3 yd, and slot vs WR cannot be told.

The shell, the conflict defender, his crash inside by t04.90 and the ~1-s field-side throw all hold. Refuted detail: with the ball in the air at t04.90, both field receivers are at or behind the LOS, so the catch was ~0 yd, not ~3 yd, and 'likely the slot' cannot be confirmed.

t06.17: only one deep defender, at about 8 yds (not 10), so single-high. t07.61: #4 set with the ball up and the slots only 1-2 yds out. t10.50: carrier at about the 26 near the top hash, matching intermediate middle and +13. The location matches the single-high rule. The 1.8 s figure is a point estimate: frames only bound it to about 0.5-2.5 s, and the catcher is unconfirmed.

After the snap
Rotated. The field S came downhill at the snap (t03.05), the boundary S stayed deep on the top hash, and the field CB bailed: a 3-deep look with the deep middle left open → Field slot seam/post into the deep middle, between the hash safety and the bailing CB

Film notes
t01.72: S at about 12 on the boundary hash and field S at about 8 over trips = two-high, so the pre-snap answer was underneath. t03.05: the field S triggers downhill. t04.37: the boundary S is still on the top hash and the field CB is bailing. t05.70: ball in the air to a slot alone in the deep middle. t07.02: catch at the goal line, TD. The post-snap read beat the rotation.
Second look
t03.05: field S steps about 2-3 yds downhill. t04.37: boundary S about 13 on the top hash, field CB bailed to about 13, deep middle empty, #4 holding. The post-snap read is right. But at t05.70 the boundary S is level about 5-6 yds away (not 'alone'), t07.02 is a TD through contact, and release looks closer to 2.5-3 s than 2.2. Post-snap it was more Cover 2 invert than 3-deep.

safeties: Split, uneven: field-side S about 9-10 yd outside the top (field) hash; boundary S down at about 6 yd outside the bottom hash, which was a rotation tell; corners: Both CBs about 6 yd off (top CB at the 50 vs a WR at the 44; bottom CB at the 50); apex: Top overhang about 3-4 yd outside the top hash, widened slightly with the motion. Bottom LB/apex about 4 yd; box count: About 6 (3 DL + 3 LB) vs 5-6 blockers; empty backfield after motion; motion response: RB motioned from the backfield to the field-side slot (t00.40 to t06.17). The overhang and the deep field S bumped out slightly; no defender ran across with him, a zone indicator
Pre-snap read
Two-high shell with the boundary S cheated down, likely rotating to Cover 3 (sky/robber) or bringing pressure
Should have gone
Uneven shell (t06.17): only one deep defender (~9.5 yd, outside the top/field hash). Boundary defender at ~6 yd outside the bottom hash, both CBs ~6 yd off. RB motion to the field slot drew only small adjustments, a zone tell. On 3rd & 6: field side at or just past the sticks (slot or outside hitch/out, 6-8 yd). If it rotates to single-high, the field 12-18 yd sideline hole.
After the snap
Cover 3: both CBs bailed to deep thirds, the field S stayed deep at about 13 yd shaded to the field, and the underneath defenders sat tight on both slots (t09.06) → Vs Cover 3: field-side 12-18 yd sideline hole in front of the bailing CB (comeback/out), or the seam/void on the boundary side of the shaded S
Where it went
Incomplete. At t10.50 a probable ball is in flight above the top hash at about the MCK 45-46 (~10 yd past the LOS). A ball in the air shows above its ground track, and this one sits below any QB-to-top-WR line. So its path ran down the near hash/middle, likely toward the middle receiver at ~18 yd near the bottom hash, not the field-side outside WR. Catch point not shown.

Second look
Agree with the pre-snap picture, with Cover 3 at t09.06 (both CBs and the field S deep, boundary defender on the bottom slot), and with 'cannot tell'. Refute the target: in t10.50 the ball is ~35 px below the line from the QB to the top WR, and an airborne ball cannot sit below its ground track. The snap falls somewhere between t06.17 and t07.61, so the 2.6 s time-to-throw cannot be measured.

Single-high zone look: LBs dropped (t04.21), FS stayed in the end zone, boundary CB carried the WR's fade tight to the pylon (t05.49). Man vs zone on the trips is not resolvable → Unclear from the frames: the fade was covered tight, and the trips/underneath separation cannot be seen.

t01.67: one deep ~11.5 yds, three defenders ~3.5-4 yds on the trips, boundary CB ~8 yds off. t04.21-t05.49: LBs drop, FS stays in the end zone, lone WR's fade carried tight at the pylon. Ball held, scramble left for 0, no loss and no turnover. Frames 1.3 s apart do not show whether anyone was open when he decided.
Second look
Pre-snap look and scramble confirmed (t01.67, t06.76). At t04.21 the lone WR's vertical has the CB on top, and the trips WRs at ~5 yds face defenders bailing to ~6-12 yds (looks like zone). One LB came forward to ~2 yds rather than dropping. The route concept and who was open at decision time aren't visible in frames 1.3 s apart, so 'cannot tell' stands.

Last pre-snap frame t09.06: two deep safeties (~10-12 yds), 3 DL + 2 ILB, overhangs out. Frames stop at the snap (t10.50), so the throw isn't shown. The tag (left, short left, complete +11) fits an in-front-of-two-high throw, but the receiver and the read can't be verified.

Frames end right after the snap, so the receiver, read and timing can't be checked. 'Cannot tell' is correct. Small difference: the far CB is about 6.5 yds off.

t03.19: split safeties (~8.5 and ~12 yds), off corners, 6-man box. Post-snap both safeties stayed deep (t04.59/t05.98). Ball went to the trips side in front of the safeties and the play ended at the far sideline near the 44 (t07.38-t10.17; tag +12). That's the textbook two-high throw. The receiver isn't legible.
Second look
Confirmed. Two-high pre-snap (t03.19) and post-snap: the far safety holds at about 8 yds, the near safety bails, and the far CB gets depth over #1 (t04.59/t05.98). The ball ends at the trips-side sideline in front of them, which is the standard two-high answer. Caveat: a navy player is about 8 yds downfield by the umpire at t07.38, and #54 is about 13 yds downfield at t08.77. That hints at a quick, screen or RPO concept. Receiver not confirmed.

Single-high, Cover 3 (Cover 1 possible)
Should have gone
Single-high at t03.84. The lone safety is about 11 yds deep over the far (boundary, ball-side) hash, not the middle. Trips (near) CB about 7 yds, two defenders about 5 yds over #2/#3, far CB about 6 yds, 6-man box. The trips-side seam, away from the boundary-shaded safety, is the shot. A quick throw to #1 against the 7-yd cushion is the safe answer.
After the snap
Cover 3: near CB bailed deep (t04.99), post safety stayed in the middle, trips-side defenders stayed on #2/#3 at ~3-5 yds; LBs fit at ~3 yds → Seam/curl window behind the trips-side underneath defenders and in front of the post safety. Flat/hitch only if the curl-flat defender widens.
Where it went
Trips side (offense right, near side), at the LOS. At t06.14, #15 (#1) is at the LOS facing the QB while #2 and #3 are engaged with the two 5-yd defenders, i.e. Blocking.

t03.84: lone safety ~12 yds on the far hash, soft field corner, 3 v 3 vs trips. The ball went to a trips-side screen (#2/#3 blocking at t06.14) for +2, not the seam the single-high look offered. It reads as a called screen into even numbers, so it's acceptable, not a misread. Ball not visible.
Second look
The pre-snap picture and the 'acceptable' verdict hold. A screen to #15 would match that. The ball and receiver aren't visible, so the match is unclear rather than no. Also, the post safety was over the far hash, not 'in the middle.'

After the snap
Cover 3: both CBs bailed (far CB ~16 yds deep near the numbers by t07.61), post safety drove from the middle toward the far hash, far apex trailed the slot, 2 LBs dropped to hooks, 4-man rush → Safety and CB both converged on the far-side vertical, so work off them. Take the far #1's short stop (~7-8 yds, CB ~10 yds off at t07.61) or come back to the near side/checkdown.

Offense left (far side), deep (~16-20 air yds) toward the far slot's vertical/numbers area. Probable ball in flight at t07.61 next to the bailing CB, with the safety over the top.

Film notes
t04.73: single-high and off corners, so a seam or outside-hole shot was a fair pre-snap plan. By t07.61, with the ball apparently in the air, the far CB had bailed into that hole, the safety was over the top and the apex was trailing the slot. The open look was the far #1's short stop. Ball barely visible, hence low confidence.
Second look
Confirmed. Single-high made the far vertical a fair pre-snap shot. Post-snap at t06.17, the far apex is in phase with the slot and the far CB is bailing. At t07.61 the slot is bracketed, while far #1 sits about 5 yds downfield at the far sideline with no defender within about 5 yds (CB about 10 yds off). Throwing into the bracket is a missed read. Ball barely visible, so confidence is low.

Pre-snap read
Two-high quarters type with shallow safeties; 2-over-1 (CB + S) on the boundary X
Should have gone
Box is 5 vs 6, which favors the run. As a play-action pass against this 2/3-high shell, the throw in front is to the soft trips side: hitch to #1 vs #17 at ~8 yd, or #2/#3 under the two middle defenders at ~9 yd. The boundary X is bracketed before the snap (CB ~4 yd head-up, S ~9 yd over him), so he is not the pre-snap answer.
After the snap
Both middle defenders came downhill on the PA. Boundary CB bailed, boundary S deepened to about 13-14 yd, field CB bailed to about 12 yd (quarters / 3-deep) → X stop/out in front of the bailing CB was open. A bigger window was possible on a trips seam behind the middle defenders who came down (deep middle looked thin at t06.17)
Where it went
Left (boundary), ~10-11 yd at the far sideline, most likely the single X, the only far-side receiver. He finishes with a dive near opp 43-45 at t09.06. The CB stays ~1-2 yd on top of him at t06.17 and t07.61. The release moment is not visible: the QB's posture at t06.17 is ambiguous. +11.

Film notes
t03.29: boundary X has a 4-yd CB with S ~9 yd over him. PA pulls the two middle defenders down (t04.73) and the CB bails (t06.17), so the 10-yd stop/out in front is open: +11. A seam behind the middle defenders also looked open at t06.17. WG wears white in these frames.
Second look
t03.29: the X faces a 2-over-1 (CB ~4 yd + S ~9 yd); the trips side is soft and the box is 5 v 6. By the rules the read is the run or the trips side, so the pre-snap answer was fitted to the result. t06.17-t07.61: CB stays 1-2 yd on top of the X while the middle pair comes down. A tight +11 completion is acceptable, not a right read.

Should have gone
The left side is 4 v 2 (CB ~2.5, nickel ~4, overhang ~7, SS ~10.5 at the far numbers), and the SS sits right on the 12-18 yd sideline area, so there is no left hole before the snap. Best answer: the right single WR 1-on-1 vs #17 at ~4 yd, with the middle safety (~11.5 yd) shaded toward the boundary.
After the snap
3-deep: both safeties deepened (MOF drifted left), #17 bailed. The left CB sat in the flat on the short route (cloud-like) → The short throw was contested by the squatting CB. Better: the hole behind him (left, 12-18 yd) or the right WR's hitch under the bailing #17
Where it went
Short left at the far sideline, at or just past the line of scrimmage; '1-3 yd past' is not clearly shown. At t04.88 one left WR is engaged with the 2-yd defender and the other is at the sideline behind the line. By t06.00 the OL is releasing downfield.

t02.64/t03.76: MOF S ~12 yd middle, SS ~11 over the left pair, left defenders pressed to 2-4 yd. Post-snap (t04.88) the left CB sat on the short route and was on the catch; still +8 on 2nd & 7. Single-high rules point to the left sideline hole or the right 1-on-1. Low-res frames; routes partly hidden.
Second look
Neither left WR runs a vertical. At t04.88 one is blocking the 2-yd defender; with the OL releasing at t06.00 it looks like a screen. So the 'vertical / 12-18 hole' answer and 'CB sat in the flat' are not supported. The middle safety also slid ~5 yd toward the boundary between t00.40 and t02.64.

Film notes
t01.24: left stack has a ~7-yd cushion, left apex ~5 yd at the box edge, box even, so the quick throw was defensible pre-snap. By t02.08 the apex widened to the stack and the CB closed: RPO rule says give. Ball went to the left stack for +2; runs gained 13 and 16 on clips 16/37.
Second look
Holds, with small fixes. The far CB measures ~6 yd, not 7, and had not closed by t02.08; the stack blocker engages him at t02.91. At t02.08 the far apex had already widened ~2 yd toward the stack while the mesh was still on, so the give was the post-snap answer. The ball went to the stack for +2.

The left side is crowded before the snap: two defenders ~5-7 yd over the X and slot, plus deep defenders at ~10-11 yd on that side. The near single WR faces a ~2-yd press CB, with the other deep defender ~11 yd over the ball. On 4th & 7, the best pass answer is the near WR 1-on-1 (slant/fade); the 5-man box favors the run only by count.
After the snap
Safeties deepened, far CB bailed, rover and LBs stepped up on the run action, slot defender sat at about 6 yd: two-high quarters with the rover down → Left slot behind the stepping LB/rover and in front of the deepening safety, at the goal line
Where it went
Left, ~16 yd to the goal line, TD per the tags; the ball is not visible. The only offensive player who crosses the goal line is the far outside receiver at the far pylon (t05.76 to t06.83).

Second look
t02.54: two defenders ~5-7 yd over the left X and slot, deep pair ~10-11 yd on that side; the near WR faces a 2-yd press CB alone, so pre-snap rules favor the near 1-on-1, not the left slot. t05.76/t06.83: the slot stays ~3 yd short with an arm up; only the far outside WR enters the end zone at the pylon.

The flat receiver caught it ~2-3 yds past the LOS with two navy defenders closing (t04.32). The bottom WR later sat at ~5 yds against the bailing #24, but that route had not developed when the ball came out.

WG in white. Motion to the top, then a quick throw to the top flat (short left). #4 is in his throwing motion at t03.34.
Film notes
t02.36: MOF closed (S ~11), SS ~10 over the left slot/wing, edge on the LOS: 4 left defenders vs 3 receivers, 5-man box. Ball out fast (QB throwing at t03.34) to a left screen/flat with the X blocking; SS and overhang rallied, +5. Looks like a called quick screen; rules favored a run or the right 1-on-1.
Second look
At t03.34 the QB's arm is up, the slot/wing are at the line by the far numbers, and the X is engaging the CB; two defenders close at t04.32. The ball was out before the coverage showed, so 'Cover 3 sky' is a guess and 'unclear' is right. It looks like a called screen into numbers that gained 5: acceptable.

safeties: Shallow two-high. The top-hash safety is about 8 yards deep and the bottom-hash safety about 9.6. Nobody is deeper than about 10 yards, and the middle linebacker is also at about 8.; corners: Top corner is 7-8 yards off the top wide receiver. Bottom corner is about 3 yards off (near press) the bottom wide receiver.; apex: The top apex is walked up to about 2 yards over the top slot, in or next to the box.; box count: 6 at or near the line (3 DL, 2 standing LBs, walked-up top apex) plus the middle linebacker at 8, against 7 blockers (5 OL, TE, RB).; motion response: No motion.
Pre-snap read
Shallow two-high with a pressure look. It could rotate into a fire zone.
Should have gone
Get the ball out on time underneath to the Sail side (right/bottom): the RB flat, or the TE sail in front of the 9.6-yard bottom safety. If the walked-up top apex blitzes, the hot throw is the top slot he leaves.
After the snap
The top apex blitzed (5-man pressure). The top corner and the bottom-hash safety bailed to 13-14 yards, the top safety sat at about 8, and the bottom corner ran with the go route. That is a 3-deep, 3-under fire-zone rotation, seen only about 1.5 s after the snap. → The TE sail at 10-12 yards to the bottom sideline, between the shallow bottom flat dropper and the corner running with the go. Throw hot to the top slot if the apex comes through free.
Where it went
Not thrown. The tag records a scramble for +1. The frames stop about 1.5 s after the snap, so the decision itself is not visible.
Coverage (final)
Unclear. Pre-snap two-high plus a robber; after the snap 3 deep with the top S coming down. Cover 3 fire zone and Cover 1 robber are both unproven.

Film notes
WG in white here (RH navy). t07.61: nobody deeper than ~10 yds, top apex walked up to ~2, 6 at LOS. t10.50 (~1.5 s post-snap): apex blitzing, top CB + bottom-hash S bailing deep, sail stem forming. Frames end before the decision; tag = scramble +1, so the read cannot be judged.
Second look
I agree with 'cannot tell'. The frames end at t10.50 and the clip runs 16.4 s, so the decision is never shown. Shell caveat: t07.61 shows three defenders at 8-10 yds, not a clean two-high, though the quick/hot answer holds either way. The post-snap match should be 'no', not 'unclear': he scrambled, so no throw went to either answer.

t04.73 is single-high: a safety ~12 yds deep in the middle, with ~9-yd defenders over the top trips and on the bottom, and the top corner ~6 off. On 3rd & 11 go beyond the sticks: the trips-side inside seam against the middle safety, or the top 12-18 yd sideline hole outside the ~9-yd defender. The bottom 1-on-1 is the alternate.
After the snap
Cover 3. Both corners bailed to deep thirds, the middle safety dropped to about 20 yards in the deep middle, the two 9-yard players sank to hook/curl at 10-12 yards, and 4-5 rushed. → The middle safety stayed deep and the hooks sank, so the outside curl/out under the bailing top corner was the cleaner window. A middle throw needed the hook defenders held first.
Where it went
About 15-16 yds over the middle. At t09.06 a receiver is down near WG 49-50, between the field center and the bottom hash, with two defenders on him. Incomplete (intermediate middle). The receiver is not identified. Release was roughly 2.2-3.0 s after the snap.

Film notes
t04.73: one S ~11-12 deep middle, two at ~9. Cover 3 confirmed t06.17-t07.61 (both CBs bail, middle S ~20 deep, hooks sink). Ball over the middle ~15 yds to a trips inside receiver crossing (t09.06), two defenders at the catch point, incomplete. Beyond the sticks vs single-high = acceptable; window tight.
Second look
The Cover 3 read holds (t06.17-t07.61: both CBs bail, the middle S drops to ~18-20). The pre-snap match 'yes' is not supported. The catch point at t09.06 is middle-to-bottom-hash, not the trips seam or top sideline hole. At t07.61 the inside trips WR was at the top hash, so calling him the target is a stretch. A throw beyond the sticks into the Cover 3 void stays 'acceptable'.

Top/left side with a 6-7 yard cushion. The called quick game's answer is a short throw in front of the off corner to the motion man or #1 at about 5 yards. By rule, the deeper shot is the seam or the top sideline hole.

3-deep zone with no blitz seen. The top corner bailed to 11-12 yards and the bottom DB to about 14, the middle safety held at about 9, and underneath defenders broke on the catch. → With the top corner bailing, the short throw on the top side in front of him is open.

t03.14 puts both deep defenders on the top half: one ~11 yds deep outside the top hash and one ~9.6 deep over the ball at the top hash. The bottom field side has only the CB ~7 off and an apex ~5 deep inside the slot. Both bottom receivers run verticals. The answer is the bottom slot seam or vertical at 12-18 yds against that lone corner, not a quick throw (none was run). The RB stays in to block.
After the snap
Rotated to Cover 3. The over-the-ball safety went to the deep middle (about 18 yards), the top safety to the top deep third (about 17), and the bottom corner bailed to about 15. A top defender squatted at about 8 with 2 LBs underneath. Pressure was on the QB about 2 s after the snap. → The bottom corner was 2-on-1 against two bottom verticals, so the slot seam was open at about 1.5-2 s. The glance at about 10 yards sat between the top squat defender and the deep defenders.
Where it went
Not thrown. #4 is still holding at t05.89, about 2.4 s after the snap, then scrambles and is tackled near RH 30 (t08.63-t10.00). The tag records a scramble for -2.

Both safeties retreated into the end zone, the top corner trailed #1, the LBs dropped to 5-6 yards, and the bottom corner stayed on the single receiver. 3-4 rushed. → With both safeties in the end zone and the top corner trailing, the window was the top end-zone sideline (corner or fade-stop) to a trips receiver.

Two-high (S ~8 yds far hash, ~10 yds near hash) with 5 in the box vs 6 blockers.

Second look
The apex rush at t04.69 and an uncovered #3 behind the LOS at t06.11 are real. But 'QB still holds the ball' at t06.11/t07.54 cannot be checked: no ball is visible, and the back standing behind the OL at t06.11 reads like #14. So the ~4 s timing and '#2' target are guesses. The bottom CB is ~2-3 yds off, not 4-5. With the release unseen, 'missed read' is unsupported.

Confirmed. t07.61, t09.06 and t10.50 are static, so the snap is never shown. At t10.50: the top CB presses the boundary stack, the overhang is walked up ~2-3 yds, the boundary S is ~7 yds outside the far hash, the near-hash S is ~10 yds, the bottom CB is ~5-6 yds off, and the field slot has nobody over him underneath. That does not change 'cannot tell'.

Pre-snap read
Soft two-high/3-deep 'sticks' look (quarters-type)
Should have gone
The defense was not in a soft two-high shell. At t01.84 one S was ~11.5 yds deep in the middle. By t03.29 it had rotated: no defender deeper than ~9 (bdry side), others at ~7 and ~6, bdry CB pressed at ~1, field CB at ~3.5. Rule vs single-high/rotation: best 1-on-1 at or past the sticks (RH 29). The concept is not visible, so no specific target can be named.
After the snap
Quarters-type: deep defenders carried the field verticals; boundary CB squatted/pressed the boundary WR short route → Boundary short: WR at ~5 yds (contested) or the back in flat (defender ~2-3 yds away); nothing clean
Where it went
Boundary (offense right, far side), short to the outside WR at ~RH 30-31 (~3-4 yds, short of the RH 29 line to gain). CB in phase; ball appears beside them at t07.61. Incomplete (short right). QB was backpedaling with a rusher chasing at t06.17.

Second look
Pre-snap claims refuted. t01.84 shows one S ~11.5 yds in the middle. At t07.61 the WR is at ~RH 30.7, short of the RH 29 line to gain, so 'right depth' fails. Ball side and incompletion are confirmed.

Pre-snap depths roughly hold. 'Screen to bdry inside WR' is not supported: at t06.17 and t07.61 both far WRs are near the far sideline at the LOS (blocking), while the carrier cluster is inside near the far hash.

Middle of field closed at t03.01: one deep defender at about 12 yd near the ball, rovers at 8 and 9.5 yd over both #2s, boundary (top/R) CB at about 3.5 yd, field CB at about 6 yd, 6 in the box. Called play to the right (#1 go, #2 sail, RB flat all visible), so the throw is the #2 sail at 12-15 yd to the right sideline, or the RB flat if the 8-yd boundary rover sinks.
After the snap
Soft deep drop. Both CBs bailed and all 3 safeties retreated (t04.31). The boundary safety carried over the sail and the edge took the flat, so the boundary had 4 defenders on 3 routes (t06.92). A rusher was on the QB by t05.62. → Field side or checkdown, because the boundary was outnumbered: the field slot (about 11 yd, middle) or the field #1 (about 7 yd). Whether either was open cannot be verified at this resolution.
Where it went
Right side, intermediate (direction right, intermediate right). The ball never shows in any frame. Most likely the #2 sail: at t06.92 a receiver is at the right sideline about 12-13 yd downfield with a defender on him. The #1 go, about 21 yd deep with the CB on him at t06.92, cannot be ruled out.

The pre-snap look holds up (t03.01), and all DBs bail at t04.31. At t06.92 the field #1 (#10) is about 8 yd deep with roughly 4 yd of cushion but walking, so the play is probably over, and the release is never seen.

After the snap
Rotated. The L safety stepped down at the snap while the R safety bailed and rotated toward the middle (t03.29), and both CBs bailed. That makes 3 deep, i.e. Cover 3 rotated to the strength.

Two-high (Quarters/Cover 2 family). The boundary #1 is effectively bracketed by the CB and the safety.
Should have gone
Two-high at t04.73: boundary safety about 9.5 yd over the lone #1, field safety about 8 yd, middle open, boundary CB about 4-5 yd. That says the trips (right) side. All three trips receivers ran verticals (t07.61 to t09.06), so the answer within the play is the #2/#3 inside vertical up the open middle, or the RB checkdown, not a hitch. Stay off the bracketed boundary #1.
After the snap
Stayed two-deep to the boundary. The field safety rolled down on the trips (t06.17) and the boundary safety bailed to about 20 yd outside the L hash (t07.61), with the L CB on top of #1 at the sideline. Reads as Quarters/cloud to the boundary. → Trips side: the #2/#3 inside vertical at about 12 yd between the LB and the boundary safety, or the RB checkdown. The boundary go was bracketed.
Where it went
Left (boundary) sideline to #1 L on a vertical (direction left, intermediate left; he is the only receiver on that side). Ball never visible. #1 is still running in bounds near RH 18-19 at t09.06, then is down at the sideline with a defender near RH 12-13 at t10.50, so the ball was likely about 25 yd or more and contested. Incomplete. Release time cannot be determined; a rusher is directly behind the QB at t07.61.
Coverage (final)
Not established. The far S stays deep on the boundary/X side with the far CB over the X (bracket) while a middle defender sits ~9 yds. Could be Quarters-solo, Cover 3 with a cheating MOF, or Cover 1 robber.

The two-high look and the boundary bracket check out (t04.73: CB 4-5 yd plus safety about 9.5 yd; t07.61: CB on top of #1 and safety about 19 yd deep), and the left-side tag makes both 'no' matches hold. 'Missed read' is not shown: a rusher is behind the QB at t07.61, so this could be a throwaway, and the ball is never seen. 'Out of bounds near RH 20 at t09.06', '19-20 yd' and '2.2 s' are contradicted by t09.06 and t10.50. The field safety rolling down is a rotation, so 'disguised = false' is doubtful.

Pre-snap (hudl_wide t01.70): one deep ~11y on field hash, boundary CB ~2y on #10, overhang ~6y; 3 WG players vs 2 defenders to the boundary. Screen to that numbers edge was the answer. Ball out ~1.1s to #10 behind 2 blockers (t02.40-t03.20) as a free edge rusher closed. 6 yds, 1st down.

Verdict holds, but the depths are overstated. In t01.70 (enlarged), the lone deep is ~8.5y on the far hash, not 11y. Far CB is ~6-7y off, not 9-10y; far apex ~4y, not 7y; LBs ~4y.

QB keep up the middle for 2 yds (official). QB held the ball in the backfield ~1s (t05.00) before going in
Coverage (final)
Offset 1-high: one deep about 10.5y outside the far hash, plus a near defender about 6y deep, so a rotated 2-high can't be ruled out. Coverage not tested on a QB run.

Pre-snap numbers confirmed in t04.20. The 'why' is only half supported. At t06.80 the inside bunch defender (#6) is unblocked but still ~4y from the pile, and the tackle is never shown. Missed detail: DL #99 was ~1y into the backfield at t05.00 and next to the QB at t05.80.

Pre-snap (t03.20): two off, ~8y field hash and ~11y boundary hash; 3 defenders at ~4y on field trips; 5-man box vs 5 OL + RB. Quick game in front of 2-high is standard; ball out ~0.9s to a field trips WR ~2-3y at the numbers (t05.00-t05.80). Both S bailed, underneath squatted; contested, 3 yds.
Second look
The pre-snap answer lists three options, so 'match yes' tells us nothing. In t03.20 the field trips are 3-on-3 at ~4y with the far S crept to ~7.5y, so there was no numbers throw there. The ball went into two squatters, contested (t05.00). At t05.00 trips #2 (navy #1) stands uncovered behind the LOS. Without knowing the concept, this cannot be graded.

Ball location and verdict hold (broadcast frame 2085.6 ball in the air, 2086.0 catch with the CB deeper).

Broadcast 2238.5: 2-high (~7y far hash, ~9y near hash), 6-man box, X pressed on boundary. 2-high rule = throw in front/underneath; he took the boundary fade. 2242.1-2242.5: CB in phase, near safety closing over top, incomplete. Trips routes left frame, so the open underneath man is not on film.
Second look
The shell and the fade are confirmed (2238.5; 2241.8-2242.5), so the throw broke the two-high rule. 'Missed read' is not shown, though. The only underneath route on film, the inside trips man, was between two defenders at 2240.1-2240.5. Trips #1/#2 and the RB are off-frame, so there is no visible open alternative to say he missed.

Man-match with no deep-middle defender: boundary S capped #1 (glance), #5 sank onto the #2 wheel with an LB trailing, field CB and walked-down S manned #1/#2 → RB checkdown in the near flat (alone at t06.40); the wheel was bracketed by trailer + #5

Film notes
Wide t00.50 two-high; by t03.80 the field S walked down to ~5, leaving one deep S over the glance side. At t06.40 the S capped #1, #5 sank onto the #2 wheel with an LB trailing, the deep middle was empty and the RB sat alone in the flat. Ball went ~24 yds to the bracketed wheel (t07.40-t09.50), incomplete.
Second look
Wide t00.50: two deep (about 11 and 13 yds). By t03.00-t03.80 the field S walks down to about 5-6, leaving one S at about 12 just outside the boundary hash. At t06.40 the S is on the glance, the wheel has a defender on his hip and #5 about 6 yds over the top, and the field pairs are in phase. Ball to the wheel at t07.40-t08.40, incomplete. Caveat: the RB was about 4 yds behind the LOS with two LBs 3-4 yds away, so the checkdown was worth only a few yards.

Cannot tell. The only pre-snap view is TV tile 3801.5, which ends ~11-12 yd past the LOS. It shows one defender ~8-9 yd in the middle and one ~6-7 yd outside the near hash. A deeper safety would be off-frame, so the shell, and the rule-based answer, cannot be set. There are no Wide frames for clip 62.

Middle, near the near hash, high. At 3807.8 the ball is at head height beside the left of the two middle navy players (~JCP 38). At 3808.1 it is on the turf beyond both of them at ~JCP 35.

Should have gone
Two-high at about 8 yds with off corners (t03.90). On 2nd & 5 the rule says take the underneath, in-front throw. No 6-yd in-breaker and no back route are visible on this play, so no specific underneath target can be named.

Stayed two-high. Near S #6 and CB #2 bracketed the near slot's corner route. Far S sat over the far side, LBs at 8-10 yds, and a trailing DB stayed in phase on the post. → Near #1 in-breaker at ~6 yds, though a defender sat ~3 yds over him.

Two-high at ~9 yds, off CBs, 6-man box (t03.90): 2nd & 5 says take the ~6-yd in-breaker. He threw the called post from a clean pocket at ~2.9 s.

Two-high is real, about 8 yds deep (t03.90). The '6-yd in-breaker' never shows: at release near #1 is about 6-7 yds with a defender about 1 yd inside him (t07.30), and he keeps going to about 10 yds (t08.30). Only the near S widened (t06.50). The catch point is the far hash, not the middle. Nothing else is visibly open, so acceptable stands.

Near CB bailed deep. The near S/hook defender collided with the slot at ~8 yds, then lost him.

Film notes
Two-high ~10 yds, near CB 7-8 off (t01.30): quick underneath was the pre-snap answer. Mesh fake, rush on him by ~1.5 s (t04.47). The slot then ran free up the deep middle, 6-7 yds clear at ~3 s (t05.87), alone at the goal line (t07.67), while he escaped. He ran 23 to the 9. Pressure excuses it, but a TD may have been there.
Second look
Shell and cushion check out (t02.20). The named answers were not run: near #1 went vertical, about 11 yds by t05.87 and about 15 by t06.87, and the slot went up between the safeties instead of breaking at 6. The mesh is at t02.97, so the snap is about t02.6. That makes the pressure about 1.9 s (not 1.5), the slot clear at t05.87 about 3.3 s, and alone at t07.67 about 5 s. He never threw, so the pre-snap match is n/a, not 'no'. Pressure arrived before the slot came open, so acceptable stands.

He threw the back-left flag at ~2.3 s; the DB stayed attached and the ball beat him for a TD (4983.4-4983.8). The flat defender's choice can't be seen, so the pre-snap match is unclear.
Second look
TV only. At 4983.1 the ball arrives at the right edge at the near-side back corner. At 4983.4-4983.8 the catch is where the end zone meets the near sideline, beside the tent. The offense faces screen-right, so that corner is the offense's right. 'Left corner' comes only from the audio. So the side in the pre-snap answer and in ball_went is wrong. The shell (two on the goal line), the crowded short middle (4981.4) and the DB attached through the catch all hold. The near flat was at about the 9 with a defender 3-4 yds away (4981.8), so the flag was the best visible answer.

Pre-snap read
Soft two-high with 3-over-3 on the bunch: Quarters/2-read or 2-Man match
Should have gone
Shallow two-high, about 8-9 yds (t02.80). A far-side bunch player motions toward the near side pre-snap, and CB #5 backs off from about 1.5 to about 3 yds. On 1st & 10 vs a soft shell, take the quick throw in front. No hitch is run on this play, so no specific route can be named. 'Run' is not part of the called pass.
After the snap
Dropped 7-8 and matched every bunch release tightly (t05.20-t07.60). CB #5 bailed and carried near #1 vertically. A rusher closed on the QB after ~3 s. → Near #1 early (6-yd cushion at ~1.7 s, t05.20), if his route allowed it. After that nothing was open, so throw it away.
Where it went
Late throwaway out at the near sideline under a hit, about 4.6-5.0 s after the snap. The target is not visible in the Wide frames; the audio says 'threw it to nobody at all'. #1 was vertical at about JCP31 with #5 on him (t08.60).
Coverage (final)
Two-high shell with a 3-man rush and 8 in coverage, playing match. Quarters is plausible but the frames cannot confirm the exact label.

Film notes
Soft two-high ~7-8 yds, CB #5 4 off, 5-man box (t02.80): run or a quick 5-yd throw was the pre-snap answer. Jesuit dropped 7-8 and sat on every bunch release (t05.20-t07.60). #1 had a 6-yd cushion early (t05.20), then went vertical with #5. Held ~4.4 s, threw it out at the near sideline under a hit: safe, no sack.
Second look
Motion was missed. At t01.30 a navy player stands behind the line on the far side; by t02.80 he is moving across behind the line toward the near side (broadcast 7630.6 vs 7632.9 agrees). There are two near-side receivers after the snap (t04.20, t05.20), not a lone WR. The near outside receiver went vertical with #5; no hitch or stop (t06.00-t08.60). The 3-over-3 and the box count change after the motion. All releases were matched and a rusher closed (t07.60), so acceptable stands.

Film notes
No one deeper than ~8 yds pre-snap (t01.52): the post into the empty middle was the answer. It came open: #1 alone, arms up near JCP26, 7-8 yds clear (t04.88), still clear at t07.13. He threw the near-side vertical into #5/#9 (t04.88, t06.00) while being hit. Great catch for 32 on 4th & 4, but the post was the easier, possible TD throw.
Second look
Supported. No defender is deeper than about 6 yds pre-snap (t01.52). Near the release (t04.88) the slot on the post is alone at about JCP27-28 with arms up, nearest defender about 6 yds away, while #87 has #5 and a second defender over him. The ball went to #87. Small corrections: the near CB was about 1-2 yds off (pressed), not 3. The deepest defender was between the hashes near the ball, not at the far hash. The hit at release comes from the broadcast and is not visible in the Wide frames.

Nobody deeper than about 6 yds and the end zone is empty. But when the far wing motioned to the near side, #5 and the near LB slid with him and nobody ran across with him, which points to zone. Answer: the free underneath man in the near flat (the motion man or the back), not a forced hot throw.

Simulated pressure: only 3-4 rushed. #5 and the LBs dropped into a 5-9 yd zone wall in front of the goal line, with no deep defender. The pocket stayed clean. → Near-side flat, underneath the dropping wall. The downfield routes had defenders on them, so the checkdown was the free yardage.

Second look
'No motion' is wrong: a far wing motions to the near side (t01.66-t05.45) and #5 and the near LB widen; nobody travels with him, a zone sign, not Cover 0. The drops then reach about 10-12 yds (t07.97), not a 5-9 yd wall. The flat was open (t09.24): acceptable.

Two shallow high safeties (about 8.5 yds on the boundary hash, 6.5 yds to the field), 6-man box vs 6 blockers. Trips side is 3 on 3; the boundary is the WR alone vs the CB plus that safety.
After the snap
Two-high held. Both safeties stayed on their hashes, 4 rushed, and the near CB trailed the fade in the hip pocket (t02.96-t04.67). The boundary safety never came over, so the fade was 1-on-1, but the CB stayed with the receiver. → Not clear from the frames.

The shell holds (t02.11: safeties about 8.5 and 6.5 yds, CB about 2 off). The boundary safety held (t03.82), so the fade was a true 1-on-1; the miss was the overthrow.

Pre-snap t01.66: only one defender deep (about 6 yds), near CB pressing, apex about 3-4 yds over #87, so single-high. After the snap the CB ran with #1 into the end zone and the apex sank (t04.19-t05.45), opening the near sideline. The pocket broke at about 2 s; he escaped left and hit #87 there (t06.71-t07.97). Out at the 3, no TD.
Second look
The pre-snap read holds (t01.66). But QB #4 was grabbed about 4 yds deep at t05.45 and threw on the run at 4.4 s, so he never made the on-time read and 'right read' overstates it. #87 was at about the 8-9 (t06.71 yard lines), not the 11-12. At t04.19 the CB was bailing about 7 yds inside #1, not in his hip pocket.

Agree. In tile 9181.8 of broadcast frame (zoomed) I count all 11 defenders. The deepest is the middle defender at about 8.7 yds (between the 45 and the 50) and the near CB is about 6.5 yds off, so this is a zero look. One correction: the near CB is head-up to about 1 yd inside #1, not outside him. The snap is about 9182.0 (play clock resets at 9182.1). A rusher reaches the QB at 9183.4.

Correction 1: the far-side low defender is about 7 yds deep, not 5. Correction 2: the snap is about 9450.9 (play clock reset by 9451.1), the mesh runs 9451.1-9451.5, and #8 is turned for the ball at 9452.5 and running at 9452.8. That puts the release about 1.3-1.5 s after the snap, not 1.9. The deep defender came downhill toward the near side (9451.8-9452.5), too late to stop it.

In t01.12 (zoomed) both safeties are about 9 yds deep (one at the far hash, one middle-near over the trips), the box is 6 with a far LB about 5 yds deep at the far hash, and nobody is over the trips. Correction: CB #2 is about 3 yds off and head-up to about 1 yd inside #1, not outside the trips. After the snap the near safety drives down (t01.83-t02.55) and the far safety holds. A WR is on CB #2 at t03.27-t03.98 and the RB is tackled at the line at t04.70. The tackler's jersey can't be read, but his position fits CB #2. The swing in front of a two-high shell was a correct answer; the play failed on the block.

safeties: At t00.40, two at about 8-9 yds near the middle. By t02.77 (last pre-snap) both had walked down to about 6.5-7 yds, so nobody was deep; corners: Near CB #2 about 2-3 yds off, outside the tight near trips; far CB about 2-3 yds off the single far WR; apex: LBs walked up to the LOS (mugged look); nobody out over the trips except CB #2; box count: About 7-8 at or near the LOS showing pressure, vs 5 OL + RB; motion response: No offensive motion. The defense shifted from 2 shallow safeties to an all-up blitz look (the broadcast called it 'show blitz')
Pre-snap read
Cover 0 / pressure look (nobody deeper than about 7 yds)
Should have gone
Zero/pressure look (nothing deeper than about 7 yds, 7+ at the line, CB #2 about 4 yds off with outside leverage): ball out hot to #3 in the flat or a quick inside route. The sail is the answer only if they bail.
After the snap
Bluff. They dropped into a 3-deep zone: near CB and safety carried the outside vertical, one player in the deep middle, and the underneath droppers sank inside. No pressure arrived → Near-side sail at about 10 yds on the numbers, the hole between the flat and the deep third, past the line to gain
Where it went
Near side, sail at the near numbers about 11 yds deep (about WG40), wide open outside the underneath droppers. Time to throw can't be verified (about 1.5-2.2 s; the snap falls between frames). Gained 23 for a 1st down on 3rd & 8.

Film notes
t02.77 (last pre-snap): both safeties walked to ~7 yds, LBs mugged = zero look. Post-snap (t03.96-t05.15) they bailed to a 3-deep shell, CB+S on the near go, droppers sank inside. Ashton held ~2.2s and hit the sail alone at ~10 yds on the numbers (t06.34): beat the disguise, 23 yds on 3rd&8.
Second look
I disagree that this matches the pre-snap answer. In t02.77 (zoomed) both safeties have walked down to about 6-7 yds, 7+ defenders are at the line, and CB #2 is about 4 yds off with outside leverage: a zero look. The standard zero answer is the hot or quick inside throw. An out-breaking sail at 10+ yds behind an outside-leveraged CB is not a pre-snap zero answer, and listing both routes makes the 'yes' meaningless. The defense bailed: CB and safety ran with the near go route, one defender went to the deep middle, the droppers sank inside, and only 4 rushed (t03.96-t05.15). Ashton held, then hit the sail alone at the near numbers (t06.34). He beat the disguise, so it is a right read after the snap, not a pre-snap match. The snap is not visible, so 2.2 s is unverified.

Should have gone
Two-high on 4th & 7: a route at 7+ yds in front of the safeties, either a cluster route at or past the sticks or near #1 sitting down against the 5-yd cushion.
After the snap
Two-high held through the throw. The near CB kept a 2-3 yd cushion, then carried #1 vertical (10629.3-10630.0). An edge rusher reached the QB at release → A route at or past 7 yds under the two deep safeties. Near #1 was at about 7 yds with a 2-yd cushion at 10629.6 but kept running; no route at the line to gain was visibly open before the rush arrived
Where it went
Middle/far side, about 4-5 yds, short of the line to gain. Released about 1.9 s after the snap (about 10630.0) as an edge rusher arrived. Caught, then fumbled; WG recovered short of the line, so a turnover on downs.

Film notes
Broadcast frame 10627.6: two deep ~9-11 yds, held through 10630.0; near CB 4-5 yds off. On 4th&7 vs 2-high the ball belongs in front of the safeties at the sticks. Edge rusher on Ashton by 10629.6; ball out ~1.8s to a ~5-yd cluster in-cut, short of the line. No at-sticks route looked open in time: acceptable, not ideal.
Second look
Agree. In tile 10627.6 of broadcast frame (zoomed) there are two deep at about 9-10 yds, and they hold through 10630.0. The near CB is about 5 yds off a WR who is off the ball, and the cluster is 3 on 3 (defenders at about 1, 3 and 3 yds). The snap is about 10628.1: the QB takes it at 10628.3 and the clock reset lags to 10629.0. At 10629.6, near #1 is at about 6-7 yds with about a 2-yd cushion, but then he keeps running vertical (10630.0). The cluster receivers are still jammed near the line at 10629.6-10630.0. The rusher is on Ashton as the ball comes out (ball in the air at 10630.3). The throw was short of the sticks but forced; acceptable.

Pre-snap holds: Wide t04.19 and broadcast 10975.8 show no defender deeper than ~7 yds, although both frames end ~12-15 yds past the LOS. No deep defender shows up later (Wide t07.97, t09.24; broadcast 10963.5). Verdict too generous. At 10961.8-10962.1 the QB is chased in his end zone while a navy outlet sits near the 3 with ~6 yds of cushion. Field #1's CB stays in phase (t07.97-t09.24, 10963.5).

How the game scores are calculated

Review draft. This panel makes the scoring method implemented in Gridiron Scout's season_report.py visible alongside the play-by-play report. It does not change any play verdict or box-score source.

ComponentCalculationInterpretation
Passing production (P)min(10, NFL passer rating from the game box score / 15)Uses the published game passing line. NFL passer-rating components are individually bounded by the standard 0–2.375 formula.
Decision score (D)10 × (right reads + 0.5 × acceptable reads) / judgeable dropbacksRight = 1 point, acceptable = 0.5, missed = 0. “Can't tell” plays are excluded from this denominator.
Costly missed reads (C)Count of missed reads ending in a sack, interception, or failed fourth downEach costs 0.4 points. The 0.4 penalty was set against the initial Jesuit 7.5 reference and then held constant for all six games.
Game score(P + D) / 2 − 0.4 × CDisplayed to one decimal. Passing production and decision score have equal weight before the costly-miss adjustment.

The play log also records a separate −2 to +2 QB decision grade. That field does not enter the game-score equation above. The current source does not define a point-by-point anchor for each number, so this draft does not add one retroactively.

The six-game calculation

GamePDCGame scoreThird-check sensitivity27-weight range

Rock Hill7.736.0716.56.75.4–7.4
Jesuit Dallas8.447.3517.57.76.7–8.2

The third-check sensitivity recalculates the score after reclassifying an original missed read as “can't tell” when the fresh reviewer did not uphold it; that play leaves the judgeable denominator and any related costly-miss penalty is removed. The 27-weight ranges recompute each game under 27 combinations: passing-production weight 40%, 50%, or 60%; acceptable-read credit 25%, 50%, or 75%; and costly-miss deduction 0.2, 0.4, or 0.6. The ranges are not statistical confidence intervals. These scores compare Ashton’s six games under this rubric; no cross-athlete percentile is calculated here. The final equation has no separate clamp after the costly-miss adjustment.

Source and review trail

Where every number comes from

Check 1: the play data vs the box scores

Every game line uses MaxPreps box scores (coach-entered) for five games plus the official box score for Jesuit Dallas. The play-by-play splits use the staff's Hudl tags for five games and the official play-by-play for Jesuit Dallas; the staff tags differ from the MaxPreps lines by a few attempts and yards per game. Disputed: The staff tags show 2 interceptions against McKinney; MaxPreps (coach-entered) credits 1. The staff tagged clip 75 'Interception', but the throw happens after our saved frames, so the film cannot say which count is right; the staff can settle it. Until then the play tables count it as disputed: not an attempt and not an interception, flagged wherever it would count.

Check 2: every film read agrees with what actually happened

Wherever a film read described the outcome (complete, incomplete, sack, scramble, interception), it was compared with the staff tag. First five games: 130 matched, 0 disagreed, 32 didn't state an outcome. Jesuit was joined to the official play-by-play.

Where the second check disagreed, its answer replaced the first. Most disagreements corrected details (depths, which receiver, the coverage label) rather than reversing the verdict. The table below shows how verdicts moved. The second check was conservative about missed reads: it kept 9 of the first reader's 17, sent 8 to 'can't tell' for lack of clear evidence, and added 1 (Lake Ridge 57).

12Rick Reedyclip 91acceptableright readmedium04.73: WG white, 3x1 trips to field vs soft shell: 2 boundary defenders 10-12 yds deep, #21 off 8-9. 07.61: rusher reaches pocket, RB picks him up. 09.06: boundary X sits at ~9 yds in open grass in front of 2 bailing defenders; #84 blanketed by #6, field #1 covered by a trailer with #21 over top. Ball to X, +10 by 10.50. Best answer vs soft drop on 3&17; no one near the sticks.
13Rick Reedyclip 24acceptableright readlowWG is in white/navy. t02.92: 4 down, 6-man box, both overhangs off the ball at 5-7 yds, safeties off-frame. t04.19: 4-man rush, clean pocket, near apex sitting. t05.45: Ashton is mid-throw as the apex sinks, and #26 is alone in the near flat while #27 has a LB on him. t06.71: #26 takes it to the 23 for a first down. This is the correct high-low answer, but the deep field is not visible, so confidence is low.
14McKinneyclip 124missed readmissed readmediumt03.29: 2-high, 6 in the box. Post-snap: quarters, 4-man rush. t06.17 (~2s after snap): pocket clean, QB set ~7 yds deep. The trips slot is ~10 yds downfield in the middle with the deep safety ~6 yds over, LBs well off the lane. t07.61: same WR ~15 yds, ~7 yds of space both ways as inside pressure arrives. He held, scrambled left, and #30 sacked him ~WG37 (t10.50).
15Jesuit Dallassnap 58acceptableright readmediumt05.45: 3 DL, LBs at 3-4.5 yd, 3 deep at 6-7.5, no zero. t07.97: #4 still holding in a clean pocket, and each middle route has a defender within 1-2 yd. t09.24: #5 plus a trailing defender bracket the near vertical, while the near short receiver catches about 2 yd past the LOS with roughly 6 yd of space, +5. He took the free underneath answer. The release falls between frames and the end zone is partly off-screen, so confidence is medium.
16Jesuit Dallassnap 24missed readmissed readmediumBroadcast frame 3294.0-3296.3: the only deep DB walks down from ~10 to ~6 yards and every DB is 3-4 yards off, a Cover 0 look. 3297.3-3297.6: 6 rush vs 5 OL; the near TE is past the LOS with his man ~4-5 yards off. Ashton holds and drifts ~4 yards; free rusher in his face at 3298.3, down ~3299.6. A hot throw or throwaway beats -11. His eyes and route breaks aren't visible, so medium confidence.
17Rock Hillclip 76missed readacceptablelowt01.34: soft 2-high, 6-man box, 3 DBs over 2 WRs to the field. Snap t02.29; by t03.23 #4 has pulled and thrown the bubble as the apex creeps downhill (~6.7->4.2 yds, never widens) and field S rolls down. Defensible RPO pull, but bubble was outnumbered; CB beat the stalk (t04.17), -2 at t05.11. Give vs 6-box was as good pre-snap; nothing clearly open. Read falls between frames.
18Jesuit Dallassnap 56missed readright readmediumt00.40: all 11 defenders within about 7 yds, no deep safety. The PA fake (t02.64) froze the LBs; Ashton stood in and threw as the 5th rusher hit him (t04.88). Ball went deep to the boundary vertical, trail defender only, nobody over the top (t06.00 ball in air), 32 yds to the 9 (t07.13). Slot #1 was also open at about 11 yds near the hash (t04.88), but against zero the deep 1-on-1 was the best answer. Release falls between frames.
19McKinneyclip 140missed readmissed readmediumt05.03: no white deeper than ~8 yds; apex 3.5 yds inside trips. t06.19: apex steps to LOS at the snap. t07.34: apex unblocked ~1.5 yds from QB, ball held high; trips WR drifting back behind LOS at far numbers, alone, field defenders bailed 9-10 yds. t08.50: still no throw, sack near the 41. Blitz = hot now; it was there. Medium: low-res, 1 s gaps.
20Jesuit Dallassnap 22missed readacceptablelowt03.80: field S rolled to ~5, boundary S ~10 on near hash (1-high look). t05.40: field CB and S bail over both field WRs, #5 bails, S caps X glance: quarters. Ball to boundary flat-wheel vs trailing OLB with #5 deep over top, contested ~JCP8, incomplete (t07.40-08.40). Nobody clean at t06.40; the t05.40 flat was the in-front answer. Release falls between frames; wheel target ID from motion.
21Hebronclip 27right readright readmediumt00.40 shows two deep safeties (~9 yd); both walk down. At the last pre-snap frame t04.65 nobody is deeper than ~6 yd, the box has 7, and the far CB is ~5 yd off the lone X. Zero-deep calls for a quick throw: X 1-on-1 against a soft CB, away from crowded trips. In t06.77 the CB is backpedaling, #87 is under an LB, the near side is covered and rushers are in the backfield. Ball out fast to X for +5 (t07.83 shows X down at the 30-31).
22Rock Hillclip 20acceptableright readmediumt01.47: one deep MOF DB near the GL, a second about 8-10 yds over the twins, 5 in the box, CBs tight. t03.61-t04.69: man on all 3 WRs. The far outside WR beats a trailing DB up the sideline while the far deep DB sits inside on the hash. The inside WR and the near X (#84) stay covered. t05.76-t07.90: that WR is at the far pylon, TD. The ball is never visible, so the target is inferred.
23Lake Ridgeclip 20missed readmissed readmedium01.84: one safety ~11yd over pressed boundary twins, 7 near LOS, #1 alone & shallow to field. 03.29: #1 bails, motion man swings to field flat with nobody near; QB holding at ~5yd. 04.73: swing man ~5yd downfield alone (#1 ~13yd deep), QB drifted & grabbed by #11. Hot field throw was there; held, sacked (06.17). Low-res; snap falls between frames.
24Lake Ridgeclip 94right readright readmediumt03.29: two-high soft shell (S ~9-10 yds, CBs 6-7 off). After the snap the deep defenders carried both far verticals (t06.17), and the near CB ran with the deep WR to the 10 (t07.61). #87 sat uncovered at the near numbers about 5 yds out (t06.17), caught it near the 21 and broke the lone tackle (t07.61) for 18. Throwing underneath against two-high is the textbook answer. Medium confidence because no frame shows the release.
25Hebronclip 6missed readmissed readmediumt04.63: one safety ~11 yds over the ball, off CBs, apex at 4 = single-high. t07.45: #7 is blanketed by the CB at ~4 and the far verticals are covered, so nothing is open yet. t08.86: TE #87 is at ~12 with a 1.5-yd step on the apex, the CB is in the end zone with #7, and grass is open to the pylon. The QB is upright, rushers 3-4 yds off, but he drifts. t10.27: #87 is alone at ~4 while the QB is sacked. Low-res frames ~1.4 s apart.
26Rock Hillclip 91missed readmissed readmediumt01.29: middle safety ~12 yds, field overhang ~9-10, field CB soft ~6 yds, no field apex, 5-man box. Field CB and overhang bail (t02.17-t03.94). In t03.06 the QB has stepped up with the back on the edge rusher; #10 sits ~5 yds deep, ~7 yds from any defender. Ball held, QB drifts right, sacked ~t04.83. The fast edge rush shrank the window (it opened between frames), but the hitch or a throwaway beat -4.
