If Coker stays healthy he will show out as the #1 WR. The starting o line is solid but we got snake bit quick. I agree on continue to draft o-line.
If Bryce is really the problem I’d expose him and remove checkdowns and force him to throw. Seems like he builds momentum by Dave calling deep routes and letting the TE eat on check downs he throws.
He only seems to look good when he doesn’t play scared and the supporting cast is playing lights out. Which is too big of an ask at the NFL level. Individual matchups are won and lost every single play.
#1 pick should be elevating the team
I think Dave wants an offense that can do everything. His scripted drives are great but once adjustments are made and Bryce faces adversity we have problems.
Doesn't help we lose 3-4 players a game due to injury as well.
Smith is clear cut HOF if you judge what he did by reception. Fitzgerald was a stat padder.
The most Steve Smith was ever targeted in his career was in 2005 (150 targets). The same year he wins the triple crown.
Larry Fitzgerald was targeted more than 150 times over 9 separate seasons. Not once eclipsing 1500 yards in a season.
The over glazing of Larry Fitzgerald going around is way over blown. ARZ was top 10 in passing attempts nearly his entire prime. Steve Smith and Andre Johnson had it far worse and would have surpassed his #s in the same situation.
He's also #6 all time in 100 yd games despite 100 less targets than all of the top 5.
Won the triple crown on a team 28th in passing attempts. Smith was better than Fitzgerald. I'll stand business on that.
