So What Is It Going to Take to Get Torrey Smith Off the Field?

  • This dude is catching 44 percent of his targets  (Lower than any of Ginns percentages while here while Torrey not even remotely a deep threat than Ginn was)
  • Went CATCHLESS the last game despite playing 65% of snaps
  • Constantly on the field despite drops, mishaps, and averaging less than 20 yards receiving PER GAME
  • DJ Moore constantly turns the vast majority of his targets into a gold mine of broken tackles and YAC while catching 75% of targets
  • In one game coming off heart surgery Samuel managed to get over half Torrey's yards and equal his TD total for the season in very limited snaps

What in the world is the excuse? There's nothing but evidence everywhere this dude is not contributing and stifling better talent

At least Funchess is solid and has a defined role as big guy chain mover. DJ and Samuel are the perfect YAC monster compliments to Funchess and Torrey is holding us the hell back

As bad as it sounds 

 

Its honestly going to take an injury.

 

Forcing Rivera's hand is the only way your ever going to get the top players on the field.  Thats just how it has been under Rivera's time here.  Just too much loyalty for his vets

Lets not forget his blocking, it is horrid

The dude has been Nothing more than Russell Shepard last year.  The big argument last year was whatbit was going to take to put in Byrd over Shepard, consindering how good he looked in camp and preseaso .  It took a injury to Shepard for them to play Byrd at the end of last year.  When he got in, he flashed prior to getting injured

But he’s an amazing coach because we’re 3-1, and no one should dare mention he may not be the best HC or a good fit to lead the talent we have, right?  Did I nail the talking points?  By the way - not arguing your post, just tagging on my own sarcastic vitriol.

This. None of us want to wish injury on any of our guys, but historically it's been pretty much the only thing that has made Rivera move on from an ineffective vet.

Itll take 3 series ruined by him back to back to back. 

 

Your typical catch and fumble for the first drive, then a wide open missed catch that pops up and is intercepted the second drive, then a 60 yard bomb for a should be TD but he trips over himself at the 2 yard line and fumbles. 

 

Then...and only then..will he be benched outside of injury.

    • Film Room Playlist _ NFL Pro — Mozilla Firefox 2024-11-25 10-20-11.mp4 🎯🎯🎯 There were a couple of "fans" yesterday saying that this wasn't a helmet-to-helmet shot... 👀 Looks like based on where Moore was and where the play ended, he'd have gotten maybe just a yard or two more. Chuba was downed at the KC 16 and Moore was on his way back to the QB, so the offense got what they could for the most part. After reviewing the all-22, Bryce made the right call here. Tremble was the hot and KC sent both LBs. He gets it out with a clear pocket but it's quickly collapsing. If there was a little more time it looked like AT came free at the end but whether or not Bryce would've been upright still is another story. Smart move to get the completion and keep the field goal in play to stay alive. George Karlaftis is about to get himself a big ole hug and Bryce heaves it to where David Moore is going. Trent McDuffie slipped just a step or two before this shot, but we can see the clear DPI here as he's wrapped around David Moore before knocking him over as the ball gets there.
    • I’m taking a TE early day 3 Ian Thomas and Tremble are FA.  We should have no desire to bring them back.   There’s more than enough film of ball bouncing off their hands or facemask.
    • Daniel Jones sometimes would sling it for 300 or 400 yards.  That's my stance.  We know what Bryce is.  If you consistently play any QB at this level, they largely are going to end up w/ some good days/games.  last time Mahomes was at BOA, Teddy Bridgwater threw for 300+ yards and a couple TDs and the Matt Rhule Panthers almost took him down.  We know what Bryce is.  Now we got people predictably falling into a predictable trap.
