The question is how long do we give parker to get it before moving on and allowing the wr’s who are currently better to get the majority of opportunities? 4 weeks? 6 weeks?
My concern with parker is theres just no signs of him right now having movement to the upside. With agholor last year, he was getting open, he looked good in the open field, heck he even had a great game right off the bat against miami. It was pretty clear that his numbers were hampered by having a rookie qb who was not throwing downfield as much and agholor ‘s vertical abilities is a big part of his game. You could see room to the upside with him.
With parker, what have we SEEN that gives you hope? He doesn’t get seperation. The few 50-50 balls he has barely fought for. Yes he was grabbed on the int last week but if he actually utilizes his physicality against a smaller opponent and gets some lift while his jersey is being tugged, much better chance the flag gets thrown. And the 3rd down back shoulder pass yesterday, that was just a piss poor effort.
My hope is he gets 2 more games to at least look decent or get him off the field. Its going to eventually cost us games if hes still this ineffective and bourne/eventually thornton are missing opportunities.
