WHat was Jeff Davidson F'ing thinking in the last few plays of the game?????

IMO, if Clausen and the receivers continue to improve, and the oline starts blocking better, Davidsons playcalling will all of a sudden "improve".

Henning made it happen with less offensive talent then we have now. Davidson has underutilized Smitty. He is unable to get Smith the ball where he can get yac.

In 03, we probably had more offensive talent than at anytime in the John Fox era. Three top notch receivers to go along with Stephen Davis and a young and healthy Deshaun Foster. And in 04/05, we had a very good offensive line which allowed Henning to do a lot of things, especially with Smith.

And then there was every year after that where we had very little offensive talent and he was still able to make something happen. Think about 05 when we had had nothing but Smitty. Or in 04 when we had 0 running backs and Smith went down and Moose lead the NFL in receptions. Henning would be doing so much more right now with the talent we have, no question in my mind about that what so ever.

    • That doesn't sound like a theory rooted in the short term futures of their GM and HC. I doubt they survive to see the end of that plan.
    • The Raiders have already shown enough interest in Jeanty that anyone after 6 that wants him and would trade up for him, will already be calling the Jags for a trade anyways. The only thing them signaling interest in Jeanty could do if their interest was to trade back, would be to bluff the Raiders into making a swap with them to add draft assets while still drafting whoever they are actually targeting.
    • I love when people go after his YAC ability as if he wasn't 5th in the Big 12 this past season in YAC, because he was. And you can say his style of YAC doesn't mesh with this type of game, but that on its face is just nonsense, because if he's good enough to be 5th in a major conference, it clearly meshes well with his game. The reason you say it doesn't, is because you think all he is good at is making contested catches because of his radius, but because you haven't watched enough of his full tape, you don't realize that he's consistently used in the screen and short slant game to get the ball in his hands because he actually is a solid YAC guy because he's surprisingly agile for a player of his size.   No, he's no Tyreek, but he has more than enough wiggle to his game that you combine it with everything he does at an elite level because of his size, and it makes for a guy who is going to be a consistent 1k yard and 10+ TD player.  He can be the true outside #1 that we need, but he's also versatile enough to be moved into the slot at times to scheme the ball into his hands against smaller nickel corners or slower linebackers. He's a slightly less physical Mike Evans but with more agility, my comp was always AJ Green.  He's going to be an elite #1 WR in this league for the next decade, if he's there and we pass on him to trade down for another WR, we will regret it for a long time.
