Pre MNF Vs Bengals Thread

JD definitely need more support from the WR corp, so it would be nice to see a boost from them in this game.

The secondary need to step up big time. It's starting to look like Higgins might play the game, which will be huge for Bengals.

The wide receivers needing to step up seems to be a common theme. After looking at some all-22 film shot from behind the QB, I don't think that WR improvement is the primary thing needed for our passing game to improve. They have been consistently getting open on crossing routes but Jayden Daniels has hesitated to throw the ball when they are "NFL open", meaning gaining separation. This is normal for a developing NFL QB. Jayden is learning his trade. In time, he will anticipate his receivers coming open and complete more passes to them.

Yeah, you are right. After seeing your post, I went on youtube and found The QB School channel that has nice breakdown on JD's Giants game and it shows he missed multiple open WRs. I agree with you, with a lot of people raving about JD's film study habits, I expect to see him improve in this area later in the season.

Thanks for saying I was right about something. I'm married so I don't hear that very often. The tape I watched was of the Bucs game. Same story for both games. I think he'll gain more confidence soon and improve dramatically.
