Looking for a possible PI call & a closer kick?

I wish on the 2&5 Fromm hadn’t predetermined his target. Coming out of the 2&5 huddle, you can see Fromm telling Wolf it’s coming his way. Sure enough he throws it into tight coverage with the defender undercutting the throw & easily knocking it down.

Meanwhile, Simmons was wide open on a slant a yard over the first down line with his defender trailing a yard & half behind. Had Fromm, who ironically looked off the perimeter defenders by staring straight down the field, thrown it to the open Simmons, who just caught the 5 yarder on 1&10 — Simmons had an open field to run.

And even though 3&5 was a penalty, Fromm again forced a throw to the same side under tight coverage to Simmons. This time the ball was tipped by a supporting defender.

Standing entirely uncovered two yards over the first down line directly in front of Fromm was Cook who came out of the backfield & no defender picked him up. He could have run for days.

I know time was a factor but Fromm should have seen Simmons & Cook — both wide open over the middle — for the first down.
