oldschoolfootball1963 Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 This is really getting stupid to not have a big receiver on the field at the end of games. I’m sure we will get one next year. But you have to use who you got on the roster. I don’t want to hear it from anyone and I will not let it go. Duke Williams is on this roster and he needs to be used. I’m ***** pissed ? 10 2 1 1
Bob Chandler's Hands Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 But...McKenzie is contributing so much! 1
78thealltimegreat Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 Ever watch the Falcons Matt Ryan just throws up lollipops to Ridley and Jones that’s pretty much theIr full passing game 1
oldschoolfootball1963 Posted December 22, 2019 Author Posted December 22, 2019 Let tell you something Mckenzie is ok but that’s not what we need he’s just like smoke and beasley. whats the point. Why is this coaching staff so stubborn on this issue. We are just pissing these games away at the end 3

MDH Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 Easier to blame the coaches than the players we love. So many opportunities in this game and the players failed on both sides of the ball. 1
Green Lightning Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 Can't argue the OPs point. Another Pat's game we gave away. Tired of this movie. They were so beatable today and just can't make the big play when we need it most. 2
Rc2catch Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 I don’t get it. Weeks past we’re dropping balls and duke is sure handed. Ok that is a fair point. Tonight, what did they need duke for? Allen missed two touchdowns to Knox. Is duke making those catches? Shaquille O’Neal in his prime isn’t making those catches. This game has zero to do with duke, or the receivers. Daboll had some bad calls, Allen missed throws, and the defense played soft and missed tackles. Sorry duke is not the difference between winning and losing today. This team had every chance to win. They did not execute. 2 1 1
PetermansRedemption Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 I have to believe WR is our first rounder this year. Beane is seeing the same thing we are. 2

The pass to knox in the endzone that went off his hands I absolutely believe a taller reciever like Duke could've made. I'd even argue that final throw on 4th down couldve possibly been made by a bigger reciever.

CEN-CAL17 Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 Draft.... Watch tape on..,, Denzell Mims WR Baylor Bryan Edwards WR South Carolina Omar Bayless WR Arkansas St Aaron Parker WR Rhode Island just a few WR outside the top 60 in the draft. Can’t wait to see Edwards at the Senior Bowl. 1
HappyDays Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 (edited) Agreed, watching Beasley try to go up for the game tying TD was comical. The defender had a good 2 inches on him. We don't have any receivers that can go vertical and steal the catch. In crunch time you need a player like that. Edited December 22, 2019 by HappyDays 2

I thought the same on the final 4th down play with the smaller Beasley trying so desperately to make a play. The problem is, size doesn’t always equal talent. Some of those contested catches are not just made by big guys, but by big guys with elite talent. Size alone doesn’t make those plays, and it’s tough to find elite big WR’s. With that said, I don’t see any reason not to activate Duke with other guys doing nothing. At least we’d have a chance in those situations. It might have been nice to have him on that final play for example.
AlCowlingsTaxiService Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 The Duke Hero posts never end .... but I bet y’all trust the process, right? 1 1
LABILLBACKER Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 Lee Smith Patrick DiMarco Robert Foster Isaiah McKenzie Andre Roberts Senorise Perry .....all these 6 get activated and they produce nothing to this offense. Yet we have a capable 6-3 redzone threat we sit on the bench picking his nose. When are these dumbass coaches going to figure it out? Even 6-1 Yeldon would be productive? 3
Best Player Available Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 Dawkins was on the field. He's pretty big.
