As I've said before, only 3 rook WRs have had more than 20 catches in this offense. Branch and Edelman.
It's not the matrix. But it does require receivers to adjust based on the D and Brady's check-downs. That is no small task.
Can Tate do it? No clue. Kontra- you know football, but you gotta believe that this system is not easy for WRs to handle- See Galloway.
I know what goes into playing the receiver position, Rob. I'm just saying not to count Tate out just because he's a rookie. That's all. I don't have a crystal ball either. I don't know if Tate is going to be successful or not. I'm damn sure not going to expect him to come out and set the world on fire. However, I'm not going to come out and say, "oh yeah, just throw his first season away. He's a rookie and there is no way he can contribute to this team in 2009".
