Seemed like they didn’t know what to do. As soon as Jake faked left and then rolled right the lineman should have blocked those guys to let him roll out more and then step into his throw as you mentioned. He has plenty of arm and should have thrown it as high as he can and in the endzone, ie Aaron Rodgers.
As Basketball season is underway we are seeing end of half and game situations and announcers will say we saw them working on this situation in practice yesterday. Or that they practice these scenarios all the time.
Our team looked like they had never practiced this scenario unfortunately.
