Silver And Black Pride on Fernando Mendoza

Mendoza missed open receivers and failed to progress reads; wasn't seeing field clearly.

Mendoza missed multiple open receivers and failed to progress through his reads effectively. Against Cover 1 with six-man pressure, he forced a throw to Omar Cooper Jr. instead of recognizing that Elijah Sarratt had slipped to create a big-play opportunity. On third-and-seven, he looked for a big play instead of hitting Elijah Sarratt wide open on a drag route for an easy first down, or checking down to the running back. Later on a bootleg, he missed a receiver winning on a corner route at the top of the screen and was late on a throw to Charlie Becker on the drag route after pivoting toward the line of scrimmage.
