2 yards more than half, actually. 178/2=89

according to profootballfocus.com it was 80.

Jones notched 178 receiving yards and a score in the game, but only 80 of them (and not the touchdown) came against Norman, who shadowed Julio across the field but not to the slot (except on a couple of late plays).

point is, it wasn't most of his yards.

Good post PhillyB. 

That outside leverage bail technique has its place in certain situations. But, I hate that we use it on nearly every down. 

If we ran the same run blocking scheme every play, do you think defensive coordinators and/or players would pick up on it? Just can't believe we failed to adjust the entire game.

The last two opponents have exploited our defensive weakness, no reason to think TB won't attempt to also.

Anything less than a convincing win on Sunday will not bode well for the post season.

The QBs we'll face in the playoffs will slice and dice a soft zone coverage.

 

Vincent Jackson has been placed on injured reserve, thank god.

It would be nice if Ron would allow J-No back out of his shell so he could get in Mike Evans head.

    • This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.  
    • I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it. 
    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
