Stop scapegoating passing game's failures on the receivers

Think what you want, but as was pointed out, when X was actually targeted, he caught nine of 11 balls. How that translates to being "clearly" a bust doesn't quite translate under the circumstances in my opinion. Again, Chris Lea in the other video, said X is getting open "a lot" if you actually study him on the All-22 video.

I don't need to think it, XL made it a reality. This is the same BS that people said about TMJ amd Mingo. "Oh if they just had a better QB!"

Well, our rookie WR doesn't seem to be struggling like that, now does he?

Think maybe that is because one is an NFL WR and the other is a PS caliber player?

Possibly, but possibly not...

I might add, that I'm not the only one that sees McMillan's growing frustration. He's doing well, but he's being held back, just like every other receiver on the roster.

I am over XL. If he turns it around somewhere else in the NFL a few years from now, good for him. But I have seen enough to believe he is never going to be more than a barely roster eligible player.

Of course. How could you not be? Bryce is wildly inaccurate far too often.

McMillan is 13th in the NFL in yards but 86th of 89 eligible WRs in catchable ball rate.

Let that sink in

How many of those non catchable balls were big time throws?  Check mate.

TMJ 3 years 808 yds 1 td 

Mingo 2.5 years 585 yds 0 td

XL 1.5 years 678 yds 6 td

Not comparable

I am well aware, especially considering how many more targets XL has gotten in that timespan.

Hence why I have apologized to TMJ and Mingo so often.

They're all in the same ballpark as far as targets, Marshall a little less, Mingo a little more, so no need for apologies, X is still arguably more productive. Targets aren't the greatest indicator though, and they're certainly not representative of an overall picture. Just saying.
