Star inactive, Norwood active

This with Star is getting ridiculous, I hope Ron doesn't feel too overly confident we beat the Texans that he is sitting Star. If Alfred Blue goes beast mode on us I know who to blame

Yea I didn't like the comment he made "it depends on who we're playing" there are no gimmes in the NFL

it says norwood will receive at least 18 snaps. off the top of my head that doesn't seem like a lot, but i don't know the average amount of snaps our offense has per game. 

really disappointing that the middle of our D is weakened so much. i understand the caution, but i really don't wanna lose a game because of it. i think we have a lot of play makers still on D, but the key to this game is gonna be whether josh can shut down hopkins and he'll need a lot of help up front. otherwise, we might be playing from behind.

i really hope funchess gets some more snaps and looks this week. maybe norwood can make something out of his first game too.

    • This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY. 
    • The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.
    • I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
