A little second guessing for a Tuesday morning...

September 19, 2017 05:56AM
Nothing serious, mind you. I stil have tremendous confidence in this coaching staff.

But there ARE a few things that I'm wondering about a little bit.

Watkins is 7 catches for 7 targets, reportedly. Ummmmm... Why not give such a WR a few more targets? I would imagine that more targets would make him even more energized and effective. Otherwise, why did we trade for him?

Everett should be getting more snaps. Look at his numbers, for cryin' out loud! Such a player needs to be on the field. Don't care if it costs Higbee (or anyone else) snaps. This seems like a no brainer, y'all.

Reynolds should be given more snaps. Best way to accelerate his growth. If it costs Woods a few snaps, so what?

Gurley is improving at his running game, thanks to his improving OL in no small part. So feed him more running plays. Helps with TOP no end. The TOP deficit vs Washington was not ALL on the D. O didn't exactly help the cause either. Maintain, or maybe even increase Gurley's role in the passing game. He's become a beast there.

Kupp has gotta find a way to avoid getting knocked off his timing routes. Took him out of the all too often.

Anybody else feel that Tavon's snaps could be reduced and given to others without hurting our O? I feel like a broken record on this topic.

Hope Wade has a miracle cure for our LB position group. None of them stood out last Sunday in a positive way. Is there a quick fix scheme solution? Sure hope so, because 229 yards on the ground cannot happen again. Or else...

And where was our vaunted pass rush last week? Cousins hardly ever seemed to be disrupted. No sacks, no ints, etc. THAT's gotta change.

There were lots of positives from this game. Not gonna go into them here. Maybe in another post.

To summarize. I still have a ton of faith in this entire coaching staff. They've earned that much. But I did have these few "second guesses" and comments and questions that I wanted to get off my chest. We just lost a very winnable game, so why not ask a few questions?
