Stat Correction

As one who owns Watson in multiple leagues, I must depart from the relatively optimistic takes on tonight's performance.
His trademark is speed, and I'm not seeing it. The long reception was simply a blown coverage, and even then he wasn't able to outrun Peters to the endzone. Yes, Love was late with the last pass of the game, but on his other targets, he simply had no separation. Even on the free-release deep shots, he was not able to outrun defenders.
Perhaps he is not up to "game speed" following his hammy injury. This is really all I can hang my hat on at this point....but I am concerned.
