Actually, I'm more wondering if he's playing with some kind of injury. Never seen him take so much off his passes or put so much touch on it. Have to wonder if it's him trying to evolve or just doesn't have his power.
Agree that Smoke lost a step..used him as a familiar reference. Some elite speed is a difference maker, though.
Also agree that Sanders is the better WR it this stage of their career. (Smoke has an elite level TD celebration, however)
I like Sanders and what he brings...but I think this offense misses a player like Smoke. A true deep threat. Without having to respect speed on each play defenses can send pressure or take that short game away. Imo
The way Motor is playing he's looking like a budding feature back. If Allen keeps struggling they need to pivot and get Singletary as many touches as possible.
This feels a LOT like last week. Defense playing lights out in the 1st half, offense seems directionless. Allen is off....and letting the opponents just hang around. That usually doesn't end well...
Now we have to HOPE Daboll can make adjustments and Frazier has something to answer what Miami will adjust to. Gieseke in the 2nd half could kill us.
Deep in our own territory, 1 timeout and the offense has played atrocious since the 2nd drive of the game.
In that situation you take the 14 point lead to the half and regroup. Conservative isn't always wrong.
