Receivers overrated??

Ok flaws besides drops...That happens. It shouldnt, but hey it comes with the territory. The game against Pitt was a fluke.
 
no not for Randy. He has a history of dropped balls...
Flaws... no seperation,
Ok I don't know all the routes..
 
Flaws. sorry pushed submit

seperation. When I see the receivers I never see seperation. I don't know if they aren't running crisp routes or what but it's hard to complete passes when the DB isright on your back. I never see adjustments either.

I know a lot of people on this board think the position with the most talent on this team is receiver. I will admit, I think our receivers are overrated by us. I know, I know. most of you will say "if we had a QB" or a line to give them time to throw. I am starting to think some of the blame needs to be laid at the feet of this group. McMichael has had problems holding onto the ball for years. If you look back at his time here, the game in Pitts. wasn't the only time he's had problems with this aspect of his game. Booker is slow, he gets no seperation and is totally eliminated on any blitz package because the DB's are all over him. Orande was slow too but he caught everything thrown his way.
Chambers, to date has not shown he is a top flight NFL no 1 receiver. Every year we say the same thing. This is his breakout year! I need to see it to believe it. As far as Boston goes. With his injuries and assorted other problems. it's a wait and see deal.

Here we go again with the "Chambers hasn't shown anything yet"...But...the bottom line is we tend to overrate the WRs because as a group, they are better than the other skilled groups on our team...(better than the OL, the QBs, the secondary)...but you have a point, that until we get a QB that has time to throw to the WRs and they show, one way or the other, we really can't say they are "great"...
 
Last saturdays game was an oddity to say the least. So many drops by so many players.

Its not a true reflection of the talent we possess.
