Ah,well the fact that we gave up a 70 yard pitch and catch TD makes it all better!
Because after all, big plays are an anomaly. The Saints surely aren't known for giving up big plays the last few years...
Roman Harper slipped on the play.
Yes, you have a point about us giving up big plays, but to answer your question, a player slipping and giving up a TD is usually an anomaly vs. something you should expect to happen every game.
The fact that Williams immediately adjusted and we didn't give up another long pass play the rest of the game should make you feel a tad bit more comfortable with his abilities.
After that 71 yard play we only gave up 2 passes over 15 yards until the 4th quarter and most of his other passes were the 5-6 yard variety. The two intermediate passes were an yarder and another 26 yarder. That is progress. The longest run was the 17 yarder by westbrook out of the wildcat.
