Was it just me, or did he jus wait for that (pretty well thrown) pass to fall into his hands rather than jumping up and taking it out of the air?

Throughout camp it seemed he was gaining, gaining, gaining. In the first two games, he seems to be lacking, not gaining.

Anyone have any info or explanation for his timidness? I thought he played pretty tough in the pre-season games, so I can't chaulk it up to "getting used to playing" after the season off. What gives?
 
I was very upset that a 6'2" Boston didn't go up and fight for that ball, he was the only player of the three who really had a good view of the ball and it looked like he didn't even see the defenders.
 
I don''t like how were not using him as much he had a great preseason proving he can still be a good addition to the team and were not getting him out there as much.
 
I'm sure it will be brought up in film studies this week. I would expect him to start making those efforts.
 
He did jump??? The DB made a great play.. he beat double coverage and the guy got his hand in there last minute......Alot more things to complain about if you ask me.

Besides the line? How do you figure? Go back and watch..he didn't jump at all. It's been a problem with our receivers for a long time now (especially Chambers), because adjusting to the ball has a great deal to do with a lot of GREAT plays.
 
what was funny about that play to me was it looked like boston with those big arms couldn't extend out for the ball. lol like his arms are so big they got in the way of being able to reach out. hehe just looked funny to me
 
Im very upset that ALL our receivers arent fighting hard for all passes thrown to them. They need some significant aggresiveness!

He tried to cradle the ball as opposed to going up and fighting for it. Our WR's need to get it through their skulls that when the ball is in the air, it's anyone's ball. If you want, then get it, dont wait until it comes to you.

I disagree... I believe that ball was catchable. but he didnt make the effort.
 
We have the ex Randy Moss wr coach. They will learn.

Can you call Linehan because I totally agree with you?

Everything can be complained about. Even that they were wearing green paints.:goof:
