Yes, I've been watching football for 50 years, I know what a fade pattern/throw is and why its used.

And, like I said, unless you can provide me evidence otherwise, I've rarely seen it work.  "Assuming you have a taller receiver and if he runs to the perfect spot in the end zone and if the QB makes the perfect throw etc. etc. etc."

Quick slants or "pick" formations have a much better chance for success around the 5-yard line.

Those plays are also more likely to result in turnovers from the D-line deflecting it, bad throw being tipped by WR, etc. Fade pretty much guarantees no turnover assuming it is thrown to the outside shoulder.

Don't know stats behind them, but that is the rationale
