Jordan Love completed only 16 passes on a day that turned up wet, slippery conditions. Still, he peppered Watson with targets, primarily over the middle and in the short-to-intermediate areas. Watson drew a 9.8-yard average depth of target following a mark of 16.0 in the opener.
He dropped at least one pass, including one where he took a huge shot to the right hand/wrist on an in-breaking route. Fortunately, he returned to the game.
Watson’s TD came on a crossing route at the goal line where he simply blew past the defender.
Through two games, the 27-year-old is up to 10 catches, 188 yards, and 3 scores. He’ll remain a lineup lock for Thursday’s home game vs. the slumping Falcons.
