I would imagine you are one of the 75-100 people in the world who still don't think this was the worst play call in league (and possibly sports) history. So always nice to find something very rare. Throwing in the middle of the field brings in one variable that throwing to the outside doesn't: batted and tipped balls. Even if the receiver got clean inside, a lineman could have tipped the passed or batted it in the air and then the worst case scenario is in play. On a fade or quick out, not so much. It will always be a monumentally horrific play call, and considering the Seahawks window appears to be all but shut, it should make Seahawks fans angrier that they'll only get one Super Bowl out of this team.
