Yahoo Sports NFL on Tory Horton
From the article
Tory Horton's route was near the first-down marker, while Kupp's vertical route didn't present much of a deep threat.
STACKED’s take
Horton runs good routes but Darnold's poor execution and decision-making limit his impact.
On a third-down play, Horton's route was near the first-down marker as part of a route concept that didn't appear to create an obvious advantage; the design relied on receivers converging on similar areas rather than forcing defenders to cover different zones. On another play, Darnold put the ball well behind Horton despite Horton running a good route, with the pass ending up much closer to Denver's defenders than it should have. On third-and-one, Horton had space created for him when JSN's route drew two defenders, and Darnold had enough time to complete an easy pass to him, but instead Darnold held the ball long enough for Horton to abandon the route, ending in an interception.
