Where are Kelly & Thomas?

[MTK]

Still waiting to hear what hidden gem WR that was cut from here and went on to have success with another team. That might help convince me Hixon is a poor coach.

Couldn't we run through a list of camp bodies from the past few years at every position and use that to call out that certain position coach? Just saying.

I don't know that it's a WR that has left and developed elsewhere but more the lack of receivers he's developed since he had them. Of course a lot of it is on the player also but the coach has to bear some of the blame as well.

You don't really want to hear answers Matty, or atleast you aren't really open to reasonable proofs short of the mystical gem you ask for. The fact is, most WR's get one shot, and they learn or don't learn from the team that brings them in. Add to that the lack of success that Hixon has had in remotely raising the performance of any wide receiver, and you have a legitimate reason to look for a better coach. It certainly isn't the only issue, but it is one constant for the last 5 years of lousy receiver growth, even when the FO has spent many picks and brought many players in over that time period.
