Same.
I don't have a problem with Watson like some do here, but I'm just kinda over it. [Reply]
Z - Hollywood
X - Hopkins
Slot - Worthy
TE - Kelce/Gray
There's simply no excuse to not be cooking with that. You have all body types, all speeds, and legitimate contested catch ability. Guys who can win all the way down to inside the five yard line.
Just get the ball out of your hands, mix in the ground game, and profit. [Reply]

We need to challenge deep better and I think the threat of Hollywood and Worthy who both can win quick but are also a threat deep could really help this offense have a quick make over. [Reply]

You're right. But if the OL doesn't improve, none of it matters. [Reply]
Brown, Worthy, Hardman all on the field at the same time creates havoc for defenses to figure out. I do believe this is the end game for the stretch run. [Reply]

It's ONE GUY. One position.
Stat after stat after stat shows that we have as good an interior line as the league has and a solid pass protecting RT.
If you can't gameplan around one friggen guy, it's on your coaching staff and yes, your quarterback.
It's one damn guy.
We have to stop hanging everything that ails this offense on the LT. I mean many say we got the best LT play we've had all season on Sunday against Cleveland and the offense STILL looked like boiled dogshit.
I just don't buy this "none of it matters if we don't find a miracle cure at LT" stuff. [Reply]

You don’t think Jawaan and Trey have struggled some in pass pro?
I don’t think Jawaan is by any means bad, but I think he’s had lapses recently. Well that and he got dog walked by Maxx Crosby. Not glaring but a bit frustrating. [Reply]

Everyone's too afraid to point fingers at Patrick. I do get it, he can't do much wrong in our eyes as fans, but we've talked about it ad nauseum, and we've seen the tape. He's not very good this year. [Reply]

And it's not as if we didn't see this SAME EXACT issue last year.
I got news everyone, it wasn't just Donovan Smith that all the sudden elevated his game to serviceable levels in the playoffs leading them to win those games.
It was the entire unit rising to the challenge. 100% steady focus for the first time all year long. They felt that need to win maybe for the first time in those games. More opponent-specific game planning. The whole operation, Donovan included, raised up to a higher standard.
That's all we need to happen. Whether it's Thuney or Humphries. And it's very achievable, especially if you're only asking them to hold up for two home playoff games in which they'll be far more fresh than their opponent, as well as a Super Bowl with two weeks to prepare. [Reply]

Who did we have with an appendectomy on Tuesday and played sunday? ( a few years ago)
Patrick said he was spending 12 hours a day on treatment for the ankle. I guess if you have unlimited money to get better faster it can be done. [Reply]
