The San Fran game is a perfect example of that

Time winding down to half time, in field goal range and Brees throws into triple coverage to Jimmy Graham and its picked.

Hell even the bucs game in week 17, he threw into quadruple coverage to colston and it was picked.

Before that drive he threw perfect deep ball to Colston and he dropped easy TD. 2 mins before half time.

No doubt, the man can get it on time and on target and it's really up to the target at that point. My point however is when 3 point are virtually a given and he tries to put a lazer into a tight spot... it's senseless. Nothing wrong with losing battles in that situation. He has an aversion to conceding that defenses just get you sometimes. I don't want him to be a game manager like Alex Smith, but in certain situations just take what is given and regroup.

Jordan didn't make all the clutch shots either. But he's the guy I always wanted to at least take the chance.
