And it was better in week 2 than the week before, so things are already heading in the right direction.

That is exactly the sugarcoating I’m talking about. We still have major gaps beyond drops. We can accept that it will take time to find a primary target, but how can anyone dispute that we need a consistent producer? Right now we have two guys taking 40-45 snaps with 2-3 targets per game. We seem very uncomfortable with even the intermediate part of the passing game.
It’s not a high bar but we haven’t found jujus backfill yet. And that’s where it feels most of the pieces fall more into place. A lot of us feel that rashee can at least meet the juju standard early on. But we haven’t yet. We will likely be fine in the meantime if we clean things up and we play defense at this high level. But until then our offense will be making it work vs all the pieces magically falling into place. That can’t occur with one of the central pieces missing.
