After listening on the radio, hearing the reviews and seeing some of the highlights, I believed that JP had a so-so game. But, after watching it on NFL network, I think JP played well and that, but for a couple of dropped balls and Evans falling down, the Bills could have scored in the first two drives.
In the first series, he hit Evans on a deep out route at the sideline. I thought initially it was thrown into the ground, but upon closer review, it hit Evans in the chest and was a catchable ball thrown where only Evans could catch it. Next, he had Evans open on a fly pattern in which Evans was tripped by the defender and fell. It was a nice touch pass and could have been a big gain.
In the third series, the drive was stalled when Josh Reed bobbled another nice ball thrown low and away where nobody else could catch it. A catch would have been a first down.
In the fourth and fifth series, JP's looked good in passing and running, both drives ending in scores. He had one bad throw into traffic down the middle that Haddad ended up catching.
Throughout, Evans used his athletic ability to escape the rush and throw a short pass or run for a good gain.
The most troubling part was his two passes down the middle into traffic that could have been intercepted and, of course, his fumble at the beginning of the third quarter.
However, overall, I came away with a lot better feeling about his performance.
