Is it really a receiver problem or offensive coordinator/scheme problem? The receivers were a lot better and getting open the first few games and now they all suck except Diggs. Does Shakir deserve more snaps? Maybe, but none of us are aware what goes on in practice. There is a reason he is not playing more and getting more targets. McKenzie is not Beasley and they both have different skill sets. Many fans wanted Beasley run out of town last year now everyone wants McKenzie to be him.
Yes, Davis and McKenzie have had drops but so have other receivers on other teams. They are not Diggs. Diggs is an elite receiver. I believe the main issue is more Dorsey and his scheme. Teams have caught up to the offensive scheme and adjustments are not being made. Prior to his TD yesterday Diggs had zero targets. I don’t want to hear they blanketed him with multiple defenders because good coordinators find ways to get their star the ball. It’s not like Cleveland had an elite DB to take Diggs out.
We all have an opinion on it but there is definitely a problem. Hopefully the issue gets rectified before it’s too late.
