Eh, their usage has been different. I’d expect Agholor to have the higher catch rate. He’s had more of a diet of short/intermediate crossers, while Parker has been largely involved in shot plays. I will say Agholor has done a good job of beating man coverage. I think Bourne could do a good job...

We’re still ridiculously deep there, plus we have 2 TE sets to run. But even with Agholor gone we’d have Jakobi Parker Bourne Thornton And then 2 TEs. That’s plenty of depth. Teams don’t need 5 quality receivers available. That’s still deeper than we are at other positions.

I think it’s a good sign for both of them. I don’t think the coaches hate Bourne these days. Look at his snap count the last couple weeks

Let’s get those talented receivers on the field.

Yea ha mac threw it backwards to jonnu while the pressure was converging. Could’ve been absolutely disastrous. On one hand, zappe didn’t have any really stupid brain farts like that, and that was important. No stupid pick or anything. On the other hand, I struggle to say he showed great...

It was not Zappe, if you check the film. Oline had a big day, especially in the run game. We really got outside zone going, and opened up wide open PA for zappe from under center. He basically never added value himself. Also, I’d push back on the premise of this. The offense WAS moving the ball...

Eh, you could argue rodgers and already did choke. They gave us the ball needing a fg to win. If we had forced another 3 and out, which we had done plenty during the game, and gotten another short field and kicked a field goal that time, I wouldn’t have thought it was crazy. I do wish we...

Damn. Kinda dreading the fact that I’m really rooting for us to do well but if we do the “start zappe over mac” crowd is gonna get insufferable.

It’s certainly possible to be in agony when sustaining an injury and be able to play two weeks later. Gonna go out on a limb and say games played in 2002 and 2017 won’t have much impact on Mac’s recovery timeline.

For what it’s worth, I’m not sure how week to week jonnu really is… he returned to practice this week.

Yeah, but I don’t think we can tally it in the column of “rookies already starting” as a reflection of early draft success. He was nowhere close to earning a starting a job.

Ok, eh I don’t think we can really count zappe there. He earned this start by our first 2 qb getting injured. It isn’t a reflection of the draft success. Ah yes, always important to evaluate a draft class based off the team’s record in the first 4 games after that draft. Especially when some of...

Why are you betting the lions skill guys play? They haven’t practiced in the last couple weeks and Campbell suggested that waiting until after the bye would help swift. Seems likely swift will be out again

Didn’t meyers practice last week (limited)? I doubt there’s much we’d learn from this walkthrough.

Not really, as even when they’re in 11 personnel they’ve often been going with humphrey and a TE (and 2 of Agholor, Parker, meyers). Unless you’re saying humphrey plays TE over Henry, which I doubt.

Eh, a little silly to me. First, I think he’s been blocking better than Henry. We have the best rushing offense in the nfl so far. He may be providing value. Second, I think he’s been solid when targeted and we just don’t target the guy. I wish we did, but that’s also a result of having like 7...

Looks like Jonnu will be out for this one. Let’s see if we go true 11 personnel (with Bourne), big 11 (humphrey) or 6 OL (both Wynn and cannon)

Yeah, it’s exactly that problem. We have a multitude of guys that warrant targets, but no clear pecking order with a dominant first option. There’s an inevitable outcome of “why aren’t we getting X the ball” every week. It’ll only get worse as Thornton gets mixed in. Glad we have plenty of solid...

I’m really excited about Thornton but I don’t even know how he’ll fit in. There’s barely room for the guys we have now. Bourne doesn’t get used enough, the TEs aren’t involved as much as people want, Agholor has actually separated vs man, and Parker and meyers are too good to not play...

Until they let Zappe even attempt to run a full offense, I don’t think Mac would Be worried that his job is in any danger
