Just a look back at all the complaints people had about drafting receivers earlier in the year. People wanted 2 players in perticular...

Mardy Gillyard - 6 rec 63 yards.

Golden Tate - 20 Rec 224 yards...

Our recievers...

Brandon Lafell - 38 Rec 468

David Gettis - 37 - 508

Hey, I think we did an okay job at the reciever position this time ;)

you cannot compare teams in different scenarios like that. Why dont you compare Danario Alexanders last 4 games to LaFells? wouldnt be as pretty of a stat probably

Different situations? these teams have no WR and better QB's... they should be doing much better than Lafell and Gettis with what they are working with under center.

Not when they are not the #1 and #2 Wr's for games, #2 and #3 for others and have to take most offensive snaps.

Put those guys on Carolina teams and ask them to be #1 and #2 Wr's I believe they put up similar stats.

Point is, Seahawks and Rams have had receiver problems and if those 2 can't get on the field with what they are working with then it speaks better to the two we got.

    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
