Its Gotta Be..
Guys, i think i have it figured out. i hate to say it, but its the WRs. our guys aren't quick enough, they aren't getting open. we always knew Ramsey held the ball too long, we thought it was just his thing, but is that a trait associated with Brunell?
its just true guys. everytime we DO complete a pass, the DB is draped all over our guys. whens the last time we hit a receiver in stride? whats the biggest separation we ever got this season or end of last? Gardner was never a speed guy, and is supposed to be getting it in the middle and dropping some because of it. but Coles is hurt and he's playing like it. he's been dropping passes cuz he's battling it out with DBs, when before he'd be out in the free and clear. its all chain reaction from there. our guys are easy to cover. so they stack against the run, teams blitz, the Oline cant hold forever, and we get 1-3. i love Coles but he just isn't even close to 100%. at this point his toughness and willingness to play hurt is hurting us. how many wake up calls do we need?? we need to start Jacobs. we need our fastest guy out there. its easy to catch passes when the cornerback is two steps behind you. and i hate to say it, but maybe even try Thrash instead of Gardner. say whatever you want about him, but he doesnt drop balls. the entire NFL knows Gardner and how to stop him. a shakeup at WR could be all we need to open up the running game and getting everything clicking. that and more rollout plays, cuz our guys just take too LONG. |
