The wide receiver position...


PhillyB

Recommended Posts

...reminds me of 2007.

steve smith is WR1 and WR2 is a battle between mainly colbert and carter - one guy who was drafted with high expectations and never really panned out, another guy who was brilliant at times but couldn't remain consistent. neither did anything in camp to impress, and the regular season's offense was similar.

are jarrett/lafell/moore significantly different?

I dunno what was wrong with Colbert but Carter never learned how to run routes.

carter always caught the impossible ones - backwards, one-handed twirling catches on 3rd down. then he'd drop a six-yard lob right in the numbers. inconsistent

Possibly. The way I see it...

Jarrett won't do much this season, but he won't suck either.

Kenny Moore will be the #3 for a while.

Edwards will never fully develop into a WR.

LaFell will be an average #2, on par with Jarrett but will be kept instead of Jarrett.

Either way, an average #2 will be found this season.

There is a 96% chance that I'm completely wrong, though.

I don't understand, when people on here talk about, OMG!! who is our WR2??We already have a guy on our team that is a damn good receiver and can run good routes and can catch the deep ball. Dante Rosario, anyone? I mean. often then not, doesn't he make pretty solid catches and moves upfield good? Me and a couple of my buddies have agreed on that for awhile now.

What has the guy not done to make himself seem like a viable WR threat? We have 2 very capable TE's, with him being the third. I havent worried about the WR position at all, because I know he is gonna get his share of catches.

Also, I think the TE's are going to be used for more than just blocking this year.....anyone else agree? The good thing about Matt is, he is not afraid to evenly distribute the ball.

    • Here comes Frankw and his pathetic little persecution complex to claim I have a personal vendetta against one of the worst performing coaches in the league if anything I should love Canales because he’s walking proof that through the lord all things AREN'T possible.  This kind of performance is exactly what you’d expect from someone who filled the building with misunderstood Bible quotes about iron forging iron and inspired speeches about how he apologized for his infidelity by buying his wife a book deal.  once more into the breech dear friends, just like when I paid a stripper for an above the pants hand job in Orlando. 
    • As dumb as it probably sounds, we should have won that game.  Defense was bad but Bryce should have been better.  Pass rush isn't a good enough excuse.
    • You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.
