Please tell me if I am wrong, but I watch other games and receivers are always separating from the d-backs. It seems our receivers are never open, and rarely get separation from the defender. Mcmike is excluded from this. Just want some thoughts. It just doesnt seem as if the guys even want the ball.
Question about our receivers?

This has been a problem for some time for the Dolphin receivers. They don't run great routes, period. And, they don't break open. When you look at other successful offenses, there will always be 5-6 times where a WR will be wide open downfield during a game. It may not be on a bomb but it will be on a deep in or slant. Part of this is the lack of speed and quickness on the Dolphins Offense. Chambers has decent speed, but he's not a guy who can separate on deep passes like Moss and he doesn't have the quick moves of a Harrison. Part of the problem also is route running and the final piece is the route running scheme and game plan.
Let's face it, Dave W is not a genius. Even in the football sense.
