After the snap, the offensive line did its job, carving out a decently sized pocket for Young to operate from. The Panthers quarterback... dropped his eyes, and tried exiting the pocket before getting enveloped by Joey Bosa for a drive-ending sack.
Thielen said he regretted the incident after the game: 'When you put so much into this game-into game planning, into how you practice... You want to see progression... So, yeah, boiled over frustration.'
Los Angeles did little to disguise its defensive plan, positioning one safety in the deep middle of the field and another in the intermediate area... Thielen's crossing route... was almost guaranteed to pop open.
With his left guard starting to cede ground to Khalil Mack, Young panicked, dropped his eyes, and tried exiting the pocket... Thielen had been open. The offensive line had held up. The ball just wasn't thrown.
