Tremble, Thomas, both have a lot of dropped balls. I don't see a problem with telling them to do a simple thing as to catch a ball thrown to them. 

That's the players Rhule wanted. He even grossly overpaid Thomas for...I don't know.  Then they start out focusing every throw to said overpaid TE and...well...makes sense.

Having just sat through the All22, there are 3 drops by TEs in the first half. Ian Thomas has two drops in one series early. 

Tremble starts catching balls later. This offense is very inconsistent in all facets and therefore cannot sustain drives to put puts on the board. 

Time of possession for the offense is not helping. The defense's "bend don't break" is keeping them on the field for ages in second halves.

McAdoo has spoken in the past about loving receiving TE’s, then we re-sign Ian Thomas to a multi-year deal while he had shown basically no ability as a receiving TE, then are surprised when we have no receiving tight ends.  
 

the disconnect between the front office and coaching staff is so blatantly obvious, but here we are getting the same poo week after week 

I dont get why hes trying to force SO god dam plays thats NOT to his players strengths........ Baker needs alll sort of help. Put in some dink dunk CMC gravy plays for the love of god... Call plays for other WR not named Smith, PLAY other WRs more than 2 snaps, play CMC in the slot and run foreman with you go-to drive tard call....

They probably are too surprised a pass made it past the LoS to be ready to catch it. 

Funny! However, all the drops happen prior to the first batted pass from Mayfield. 

At the time of Mayfield's first batted pass, Kyler had 2. Cardinals adjusted and I don't think he had another pass batted by the Panther's D the rest of the game (but I might be wrong about)

First it was the offensive line, then the wide receivers, now the tight ends?  What!

 

Ya damn skippy.  I've been barking up this tree since--uh, forever.  Realistically since Olsen's FIRST foot injury. Heck, what do I know, only harped about safety play for about a decade before we drafted Chinn, who, by the way, I mocked to us in the second round that draft.

This is so elementary, but it's above our coaches' heads. I just can't fathom why they won't do the obvious things...Come On Reaction GIF by MOODMAN

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
