Judging the receivers coach

[Mr. Scot]

If you're measuring the worth of WR Coach Jim Hostler, which of these two things do you put more stock in:

- DJ Moore's development

- Curtis Samuel's regression

Obviously, you can also throw in other things like Jarius Wright's performance and such but these are the two things that are uppermost in my mind.

Tough to judge. Moore is coming along very nicely and seems to be quietly emerging as an elite NFL WR. Samuel on the other hand seems to be the same guy we drafted - a WR/RB hybrid who really doesn't fit either NFL role. Maybe it says more about Moore and Samuel as players than it does about their position coach?

At this point, I think we need to just go back to using Samuel as a gimmick player and find another starting WR. Samuel can be a useful part of the offense but he just doesn't seem suited to being a full-time starting WR.

I just don’t believe we take advantage of matchups like we should unless it involves CMC. I know that DJ Moore is developing, but honestly he gets an insane amount of one on one matchups, far less than most #1 WR in the league so we should expect good results from him. Samuel and Wright don’t even exist in this offense unless it’s a reverse run where CMC is a decoy. The entire staff needs to go and we need a head coach with a offensive background for once.

Accepting that it's a limited sample size, better or worse than Lance Taylor?
