I think his freelancing was an issue too. In fact, we heard as much from the coaches/players that his freelancing was causing the rest of the defense problems in how to cover.
The Titans game is on NFLNetwork at 7:00 PM Central time this evening. Watch the play right before the Titans score to go up 22-21. Peter's leaves his man to jump the flat pass, and leaves his man wide open over the top. Mariota just overthrows the wide open TD. Now I don't know for sure that Peter's blew the play, but it sure appears that way based off of what everyone else was doing.
