"He should've had it."
Dick DeVenzio heard that excuse a thousand times. He never bought it.
Every pass is a transaction between two players. If the ball sails off fingertips, off a leg, out of bounds ā that's on the passer too. Because he made an error in judgment: he threw a pass that should've been caught instead of one that was.
Here's the strange thing DeVenzio noticed over the years: season after season, good players' passes somehow get caught. The "should've passers" throw the ball just as well ā but theirs keep ending up out of bounds.
Luck? Don't bet on it.
Good passers care a little more about the end result than about how the pass looked leaving their hands. That little bit is the difference between assists and turnovers. Between winning and "we should've won."
Throw passes that can be caught, not ones that should have been.
