But I think we're gonna get exactly what you're hoping to avoid here. We're gonna have a play with the game on the line and he's just not gonna come through. And that'll be that. We'll get him some new targets, he'll get some time away and we'll come back ready to rock next season.
I just don't know how you flip a switch after 13 games. I don't know how you lock back in. This doesn't appear to be a blip.

The game became much harder for him this season. He's never had to deal with the offense being this way on these terms.
In 2021 he had talent. They just needed to figure out how to adjust to defenses. This year it's completely different. His WR's are completely mismanaging the easiest of WR practices. Dropping the ball, fumbling, running the wrong route.
I think the Broncos game exposed those mistakes and they kept making them and it's snowballed since.
Idk. I'd get Richie more snaps, keep focusing on Rice and Kelce and use Toney as a gadget player primarily. When Hardman comes back sprinkle him in.
Some of this is coaching and as much as people stick their fingers at Nagy, we've got a first ballot HOF HC who is an offensive savant. I can't believe he hasn't figured this out. Pacheco, Rice and Kelce alone are quality talent. Toney and Hardman are good gadget players.
They need to keep taking shots downfield. Build confidence and get back on track this month. These teams aren't good
