and your previous WR coach who got almost this exact group serviceable enough to be the #1 offense in football in just about any meaningful category INCLUDING explosive plays is replaced by a 'quality control' guy-
I'm thinking it's the difference in the coaching staff underneath Andy.

Our WRs have not regressed. They’ve regressed to the mean. Which is that most of these guys were not very good when we got them.
We don’t need to overthink this. Our WRs flat out aren’t good. We probably caught some lightning in a bottle last year and had the perfect scheme for what defenses gave us last year. And we aren’t getting that this year. Defenses are better prepared, kelce hasn’t been 100% and our WRs need to do more, all our WRs are elevated to roles beyond their abilities because we haven’t filled the juju void either because we don’t trust rashee to or we just can’t.
It isn’t a question of if our WRs aren’t any good, it’s asking why the entire team from Reid to Nagy to embree to mahomes aren’t elevating them. That should tell you what you need to know.
