I mean, Richie James caught 60-ish balls from Daniel ****ing Jones. Are we really having this convo if he stays healthy all year - even IF 19/11/24 still have a bad year?
If Andy is to be believed, and they are gonna ramp up Richie's snaps, I think we see an offense that more closely resembles what we're used to over these last few weeks.

I just can’t agree with that. Veach made a forgiveable mistake. It’s fine. I have faith he will correct it. At the very least we tripled down on personnel for a scheme that is way better defended this year. Because I think you’re implying we’re on the right path into next year, and that’s not the case. We bandaid for now and get to work in the offseason.
Right now it isn’t about forcing ourselves to make our WRs work. In fact we look better the more we try to hide them. We are at a point in the season where our best option is for them to avoid mistakes and do just enough to allow all the other pieces to operate. And I’m optimstic we can make that work. And we can see that so so clearly in how we finally looked in rhythm and yet even with asking our WRs to do so little they still found a way to make costly errors despite few chances to do so.
