the Sam to Robby connection IMO was never super strong.  Robby had a 53% catch rate when targeted by Sam in NY.  It’s  45% this year. 
 

DJ, Marshall, CMC are all 70% or higher 

DJ is by far and CLEARLY the better overall WR.

I hope they keep DJ because if you had to choose between the two you take DJ

Sam didn't have a lot of time to get Robbie the ball deep.  It looked to me like the Texans were committed to not getting beat deep so what can you do but take what they give you which was the middle of the field.  I think I heard Troy say the Sam had 6 20+ yard throws last night.  That is pretty damn good considering what he went through. 

this. The Texans were playhing 2 deep safeties all night... considering Robby's money routes are deep routes and double moves... there really wasnt much there.

ALSO... Rhule said that there were two designed deep routes to Robby last night.... one of them Sam was sacked... and the other Robby was not open....

Robby isn’t in Carolina just running deep verticals though.  Yeah, they might scheme up one or two per game….but that isn’t why he isn’t getting the ball IMO.

I said before the season began that Robby faded fast last year and kinda quit trying. The idea that he could have big check-itis isn't that hard to rationalize.

But, let's give it a couple more weeks. Teams will be rolling their coverage to DJ with CMC out, so Robby may find him some room. That being said, we've had some big plays run through Tremble, Zylstra and Erickson (!?!?!?!) the last couple of games, so there may be some motivation/separation problems Robby is having that the coaches noticed.

I still think Robby was overpaid. He's paid top 10 money and does not produce a top 10 receiver level. We have some huge contracts coming up I would have preferred locking up more guys on defense. We also have Marshall and Shi waiting in the wings. It will be unfortunate to not be able to resign Jackson or Reddick because we overpaid Robby.

There’s a reason Moore is getting insane production. No team is going to let Robby beat them deep.

 

This is a great problem to have. 

Moore is simply a better WR.   He is our #1.  So Sam looks his way more.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
