heaved quite po sibly the worst pa s of his young NFL career Sunday -- . Instead defensive backs and collided going for the pick. The ball caromed to , who chugged 61 yards for the touchdown, sparking the ' offense and helping lead Tenne see to a victory over New Orleans. "Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good ..." the rookie quarterback said after mi sing the Joe Montana Jersey past two games with a knee injury, . "The stands was the target, to be honest with you guys. They brought a lot of pre sure, and honestly I was trying to throw it away. Right when I threw it, I knew I didn't put enough on it." That play was lucky, but Mariota was plenty good Sunday, picking apart a weak defense with a precision pa sing game. Mariota finished 28-of-39 pa sing for 371 yards, four touchdown pa ses and zero interceptions. There is a notion that Ken Whisenhunt's job might have Christian Mccaffrey Jersey been saved if he'd had Mariota back on the field earlier. However, the most noticeable difference between Sunday and every other game coached by Whisnehunt was that the quarterback was not sacked (the averaged four QB sacks allowed with Whiz this season). "The guy is a hell of quarterback when he is protected," tackle said. A combination of extra blockers and Mariota's quick release gave the all the time they needed to get receivers open. The rookie did the rest from there.The game-winning touchdown Trent Taylor Jersey was a thing of beauty on every level. From Mike Mularkey's play call, to trusting the quarterback to roll out and throw back acro s the field, to Mariota's pristine lob, to not bumbling the win. "It's something we've worked on this entire season," Mariota said of the play. "It's kind of been in our game plan the entire year. Fasano did a great job selling it, and guys up front did a great job selling it, and he just popped wide open." Mariota superlatives: Malik Mustapha Jersey Set a rookie record for pa sing TDs in a season (Vince Young, 12). The first rookie in NFL history to have at least 350 yards and four touchdowns with no interceptions in a game. First rookie ever to have two different games with four touchdowns and no interceptions. Joined as the only NFL quarterbacks through nine weeks of the 2015 Kwon Alexander Jersey season to have multiple games (two each) with four touchdowns and no interceptions. Became the second quarterback in NFL history to pa s for at least 350 yards and four touchdowns with no interceptions and the game-winning touchdown pa s in overtime (Daunte Culpepper). Mariota became the first quarterback in franchise history to throw a game-winning touchdown pa s in overtime.
