Rosario questionable; passing attack halted?

[ncbobcat]

Since Rosario is questionable, who does Jake look to in 3rd and long situations? Rosario is the only reciever who has bailed us out more times than not in these situations this season. We all know Smitty gets blanketed on 3rd and long, so Jake tends to look elsewhere now.

Does Barnidge get activated or do we hope King, Moose and Moore step up?

King is more than capable but Barnidge who hasn't gotten work is our fastest TE. Still if Rosario is questionable there is 50% chance he will play. I would like to see Moore and Jarrett get a few throws as well.

Jarrett hasn't been activated for a while now, correct? If I'm not mistaken either Moore OR Jarrett is usually on the 45-man roster, but not both.

Both have been active as far as I know. I even think Barnidge has been active for most of the games.

King might not get the seperation Rosario does, but he does a great job when the rock is thrown his way, IMO.

I think Rosario and King do a good job at TE but I really dont see why Barnidge dose not get more playing time. His blocking and his speed are both very good. I am not really sure about his hands because they have not thrown his way this year at all.

not offense intended toward the original poster....I just found the title funny. Passing attack halted? Feels like we have been in neutral this entire season thus far in regards to the passing attack....I can't imagine anything hampering it more.

I'm still waiting for them to get Goodson involved in the passing game. The guy played some slot receiver in college, so I don't see why can't can't draw up a couple of plays for him. Then again, maybe Fox is a bit nervous about his ball security. That does seem to be a legitimate concern with him.

No offense taken. WHEN the passing attack starts to get a pulse is usually when Jake takes serveal shots to the TEs. King is reliable most of the time, but Rosario has been money when the ball has been thrown his way.

Dante has a twisted ankle and I doubt he'll have the push off to get seperation even if he does play. Find it laughable if you wish, but right now, Rosaio is our #2 weapon in the passing attack behind Smitty and he doesn't have to face double/triple teams in 3rd and long situations..

[monstercat]

It's simple, if Rosario can't go, then it's time for Barnidge to step up. I'm still waiting for him to show up, because he has been in quite a few games even going back to last year.

Barnidge, Goodson... all advantages in the passing game and is not used. Damn we need new coaches

Goodson has been out since he had the concussion. I hope he can play soon. He is weapon we can develop.

well, barnidge is not that much of a speed or hands upgrade over muhammud even though he is the fastest tight end, so what would be the point?

Luckily Rosario Dawson is still healthy.
