Winning but our WR s are Horrible

When you throw as hard as Cam, it helps to be accurate with your throws and not make your receivers consistently have to try to make highlight reel catches when they are wide open. All that touch he'd been showing in previous weeks seemed to go out the window as he was stuck on the fastball all night.

What the hell are you talking about.

Coming into week 7 we had the most drops and the least amount of YAC in the entire NFL. I'm still waiting for Funchess to break out but at this point I'm holding breath every time Cam targets him. And these guys are getting no separation Cam has to drill it in there every other pass.

I seem to remember us needing 20 yards for a 1st after a holding call and Funch making the catch and getting exactly 20 after squeezing between a defender and the sideline

The pass he tipped wasn't an easy one. He had to leap and stretch for that fastball. Wasn't a routine catch even for Megatron

Exactly I can only think of three true mistakes.
The Ginn INT, which I don't blame on him, though you have to play through the whistle he was CLEARLY down.
The Brown In Bounds fiasco...just an awareness thing but stuff happens,
Funchess Drop, Cam could have given a better ball, but he still has to make that catch.

All in all our WR's did WAY more good than bad, Philly had some tough catches, and Ginn seemed to put in work tonight.

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
