Help Wanted: Second Receiver

Gotcha.

Yeah, in all honestly I would like sown plays drawn up where you make them the primary read on the first couple plays we run.

Need to try to start that confidence early with them.

Lafell needs to be active for sure, even a reverse he has usually been successful at.  Just hope, and I think we did, learned from the missed opportunities of last game.  We won't face a secondary near that level again this year, and I dont have a problem with the way we planned for them other than the 7 points.

There aren't any FA WRs that stand out, other than the head case, and I don't think G-man is creative enough to bring in Kenny Britt (for a one year rental, basically) or the somewhat maligned Denarius Moore, so we are stuck with what we got. Rivera. Shula, Proehl. Cam, LaFell and Ginn need to have a powwow about expectations and trust moving forward, or our passing game will continue to crawl.

You would think but look at the some of the run plays he called. They where right in the heart of the defense. Which brings up why Cam didn't audible out of them?

I still don't think he had audibles on many plays. It worries me that the coaching staff does not know how to develop him. We have yet to see any changes in Newton besides decision making. And that's hit or miss. I still say that this coaching staff is bad for Newton because of this. He will be only as good as he can make himself.

    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
    • When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
