Pringle was getting all the snaps down the stretch. Is he in the doghouse? (I'm only partially asking because I started him in fantasy thinking he'd get some looks with Watkins out)
Seems like he's regressed a lot this season, unfortunately... [Reply]

Sooo, Hardman should've demanded the ball more? He should've stomped right up to Mahomes and told him to throw the ball at him more often? Or maybe trotted up to Andy and grabbed him by the shirt and screamed that he needed more touches? [Reply]

The other team gets paid to. There are probably what, 16 or so guys in the league that can get open consistently without scheme and help?
This seems a similar argument some probably have about their qb. “Look at what Mahomes is doing, why can’t we hold Watson to that standard” well, because the guy is on an insane level.
It’s the same with DK.
And that’s ok.
Yeah I think Hardman should be a legit #2 guy here. And I don't want to hear the "The number 2 in this offense had to be a certain type of guy etc..." because that means that Hardman will always be a #3 and we'll have to draft someone else to take Watkins at the 2 spot next year. [Reply]

Do you have any actual proof that he couldn’t get open? Again, he had just 5 targets and should have had over 100 yards and a TD if Mahomes throws a more accurate ball. He would’ve “shined” like you wanted/expected. How exactly is any of that Hardman’s fault? Again, just 80 career targets and damn near 1,000 yards and 7 TD’s. What more can you fucking expect?
Sounds like you’re just assuming he couldn’t get open because of the results in one game, which is fucking stupid considering the stats show getting open has never been the issue, it’s the lack of opportunities. You still don’t understand that it’s about a lack of those, not Hardman’s inability to make plays or get open. [Reply]

No he should get open more so that Andy rewards him by putting him in the offense more. [Reply]

So you don’t want to hear ....the truth?
Look at Andy’s history as a coach. That’s the way his wrs have always been.

I guess it’s manufacture argument day
You are right. You are manufacturing an argument. Cause that's the exact opposite of what I said. Kelce and Hill can still have theirs and Hardman can still have his. When Hill and Kelce are doubled, you don't think having someone who can punish the defense for that decision consistently would be useful? [Reply]

I’ve said all along he’s desean Jackson 2.0
Expecting him to be this well rounded wr at this point is setting yourself up to be disappointed
Sucks that we took him instead of DK Metcalf then... [Reply]

Yeah. We do and they have.
How many targets do you feel he should get per game? [Reply]
