I completely agree with this.  One of those series inside the 10 yard line, I remember him looking to the right at a cluster of 2 or 3 receivers in the corner of the end zone, along with about 3 defenders.  He only looked in that corner of the end zone, and then just threw it away because it was too much congestion and no open receivers.  Did he glance at the middle of the end zone, or the left side before he threw it away?  No.  His head never swiveled.  He just zoned in on that one location and then threw it away when it wasn't there.

We have seen him make some excellent throws, don't forget.  He really nailed those first completions each of the last 2 games to start the 2nd half.  It's not like he guns in every throw, even when he should demonstrate some touch, as used to be the case with Nassib his first couple years.  He has been overthrowing too many balls over the middle, and he doesn't get the ball out on the bubble screens fast enough.  Oh, and the receivers are not blocking well enough to give the receiver a chance for separation at the line of scrimmage, or a lane to run into.  I like the way Hunt throws the slant.  He's hit a few.  I am not as enamored of McDonald's calls.  They seem too predictable.  He'll take a shot down the field once in a while, but the rest of it is so damn obvious what's coming.
