I’m seeing multiple open receivers in most of these stills. Frequently even three. Fairly common in a McVay O scheme. So, Watkins is hardly the only one.

Then there’s the youth factor with Goff, especially a new O with a new playcaller. He isn’t “there” quite yet, but one has to love his trajectory.

Last year McVay was keeping it simple. See open receiver, then throw the danged ball. Hard to argue with the overall results.

Both Goff and McVay will keep getting better at this. With or without Watkins, I might add.
