Well I know he wasn't used, but I think part of the reason he was not used much was the coaches knew he was slowing down. Remember, it wasn't just that we weren't throwing to the TE. The first half of the year R-Mac was so good he blanked Jed Weaver who had a goose egg for production in the first 8 games. Second 8 games he had 6 catches for 75 yards and 3 TDs.
I mean thats 3 touchdowns that I think Randy Mac would have gotten if he wasn't battling the plantar faciatis tear in his foot, and if he wasn't sort of hitting the rookie wall. He was slowing down and so the coaches lost confidence in him. I think this year they won't lose confidence in him
