one bad habit he needs to kick in the NFL; Becker is never open. But Mendoza throws it anyway and misses too far inside, forcing the receiver to play defense and prevent the interception

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Mendoza's predetermination and pressing habits led to forced throws and near-picks.

Mendoza has a tendency to predetermine throws and press too much, a bad habit he needs to kick in the NFL. In the National Championship, he forced multiple throws despite receivers not being open, including a throw to Charlie Becker in Cover 1 where the receiver was never open and Mendoza threw it anyway, nearly resulting in an interception in the end zone.
