One of the gurus on the Bootleg-- and ex-college player and QB at that-- noted that Hogan keeps the ball low on his drop backs and moves inside the pocket. Then he winds up for the throw. Both those add time to the delivery. That gives the DB a read on the play and more time to react. Add to that the fact that Hogan's long ball just isn't that great and you have the situation we all saw on Rector's Spring Game catch for a TD. Lots of luck and very athletic second effort to avoid the goal line int. or incompletion. Rector, with all his speed, had to slow down and wait for Hogan's ball. Hogan seems better throwing on the move, but then he's usually throwing short-to-medium passes.
