There could be dozens of reasons on every play - could be your guys just having a bad day or a bad play
Which play were you referring to ? This was only the first quarter. So we can rule out play overuse but that about it. The factors you speak of a minor and should be seen when ratings are close. Discipline is only used for penalties . To be real this is a gentle analysis .....and bump and run is way over powered and was accounted for here
Your supposed deep pass 35+ Air yards was to a dump off? Really? Why was he able to get behind the safeties on the first place when the faster WRs had a 5-7 yard head start. It’s what messing with reads. The outside wrs can’t get open quick enough making the third options and dump off the primaries....or auto reads on almost every play.

It was a 20 + air yards pass. Being zone a 3 deep with the cb1 dropping into the flats makes the easy read being the wr1 streaking past the shallow zone and the QB sneaking that pass in near the sidelines deep but before the safety rotating over to pick up that deep third.
For one the qb should have rolled into the zone rotation and like I said lobbed it right over the cb1s head but before the safety. The wr1 has better route than cb1 and the safeties. Keegan has all the skills to make that throw deeper throw.... well accuracy is key and he is a bit weak there for our code.
But both WRs stutter slowing there long routes considerably and it looks as none of the DBs bite. The safeties wander back and forth barely getting to desired spots in a timely manner but they did have lower zone abilities. So....
The FB , the target , stutters as well the LBer with less zone bites and the qb dumps it in there. Good or bad IRL that FB should be open when the LBers are too deep and the pass comes underneath. Rarely would it happen like this. My bets is this is a way to exploit the code some.
Focusing on particular parts of the code as to why the pass went the way it did and not the obvious choice probably takes into account alot of factors like you said but.....
When The WRs stutters is most likely what’s slowing them down too much. Forcing all these dump offs in to an early read.
Or is it bump? I don’t think so cause it’s zone.
I have heard man slows WRs down through out out there route....is that active in our code?
Tack on the “sack clock” and things get messy on this long pass but the stutters are messing with timing /reads.
Have guys get through that stutter quicker. My bets are the DBs even when they lose the coverage roll won’t be so far off interms of recovery. Like that punter covering the qb ....it looked good the guy got beat but not for large yards after the catch.
I had coverage indicators , in the play by play verbage, for a wr playing dB vs a talented wr that said it was bad coverage but he knocked it down anyway. That not bad coverage? Well unless the athletic abilities helped him recover in time but still he didn’t bite bad.
