That was not the only problem. We also had WRs who were constantly doing the wrong things before the catch. We still have the same limitations. We are managing around them by asking Mvs and Watson to do the very bare minimum and relegating mecole, skyy, hardman. And to Mvs’ credit he’s been like a Frank clark in the playoffs.. Good enough to bandaid for now, but we can’t pay that much to a guy like Mvs for this kind of inconsistency.
We’re making it work by giving kelce and rice an insane amount of targets. But we still have instances in every game where you can see how badly we want to take a little bit of the top of the defense to mixed results. And how we probably need to be able to do more out of 11 personnel. Or how our offense looks sluggish when we are asked to deliberately funnel targets to Watson or Mvs. a team like this should not have multiple WRs on the field we’re literally afraid to throw to. Look, we made a mistake with one position group. We look very well positioned to work around it. I trust it’s not a mistake veach will make again, given his track record.
I don’t want to dwell on the negative because I’m focused on winning with this group and I know we will. We will win with this group, despite their limitations, and next year when veach knocks it out of the park with offense upgrades we’ll be amazed at how much we forgot about this offenses ceiling.
