I would challenge you to look at his feet placement on his throws, and I will wager they are wrong. He has lots of trouble with pocket awareness and premature pocket escapulation. He runs too quickly, which puts his feet out of position (he ain't Mahomes-the absolute G.O.A.T. of making precision throws while contorting himself). This is the number one reason his throws are off target. He must plant and fire.

Willis's footwork and pocket awareness are primary mechanical issues limiting accuracy.

Willis is struggling with pocket awareness and premature pocket escapulation; his feet placement on throws is consistently wrong, and he runs too quickly which puts his feet out of position. The source identifies this as the number one reason his throws are off target and emphasizes he must plant and fire like Marino did, rather than contorting like Mahomes. Willis needs to stay in the pocket, work on internal brain clock (4 seconds to throw or less), and avoid running all the way back into his drop before deciding to run.
