It makes it an actual discussion and not just a statement in absolutes.

Matt Ryan throwing to Julio is a perfect example of this. Watch some of those highlights of their deep ball. More than half the time Ryan is chucking it high up in the air, in an arc, and Julio just sorta runs to get underneath it, like a kick return. Or Roddy White will push off his man and then catch it all alone like a baseball outfielder. It looks completely apples-and-oranges different from a Brees deep ball.

Speaking of receivers and Brees.... I wish our receivers would knock "some" of those behind thrown balls down. These tip interceptions are an absolute pain in the arse. Whasnt it Graham that tiped the interception? That ball was WAY behind him.
