That play reminded me of Jimmy throwing a similar int near the goal line. I believe it was against the cards. Both plays seemed as though he didn't see the defender breaking on the ball. While Jimmy is good at freezing defenders with his eyes, maybe sometimes he is a bit over confident with his release. One thing I have noticed that Jimmy does not use is a quick pump fake to keep defenders from making a break on the ball. I see Brady, Brees and Rodgers use the pump fake. Perhaps he will add that to his game in the future.
At this point in his career Jimmy sees the field but he doesn't anticipate well. That's the next phase in his development. He has to anticipate where the rush is coming from so he can avoid the sacks. He has to anticipate when the defender is breaking on the ball. He has to anticipate where his receiver will be on a broken play so he can throw to the open spot instead of waiting for the receiver to get there. These things come with more experience just like the pump fakes you mentioned.
I don't think the Ramsey INT was a case of Jimmy not anticipating. I think he simply read that coverage incorrectly and did not see Ramsey.
After seeing your cut-up and explanation, I agree. It seems as though DC's have really gone out of their way to trick Jimmy with disguised coverages lately. I remember jonnydel breaking down one of the cards games and they were using every kind of coverage they could throw at him and he was beating them every time. This isn't a bad thing though. Jimmy is really good but the more adversity he faces the better he will become. Dude never folds. He is a straight up baller.
