Are our receivers the issue?

Unfortunately, I think this offense is the issue, and that starts with this offense being a slow plodding complimentary to the defense, and not being an explosive able to come from behind type offense.

The taste only getting worse is what is needed.

If the taste gets better you can expect business as usual.
Unfortunately my friend. Jerry wont admit mistakes. It took him 10 years to let go of Garrett. This team could pick at 1 next year and they would probably draft Harrison Jr.

Just as there's video of WRs not getting open, there's video of WRs getting open and the QB throwing to the WR that didn't have separation. My thing is, if it was the WRs, passes would be on the money, threading needles and guys dropping passes or something like that. Playing good Defense calls for anticipation my friends.

As the week went on, we started to see more and more “analysts” and media members doing “film review”, and a lot of them came away with the notion that are receivers arent winning on the routes and are getting locked down in man coverage.

Ceedee has been getting slandered all week by dudes like Richard Sherman and Dan Orlovsky saying hes not a real number 1.


What do yall think?
There's something to that.

We lack the route running fiend as a #1.

Lamb is a really good player, sort of a 1B/high end #2 type.

No, but 2 things can be true at once. Dak is the issue, insofar as a roster problem. The real issue is the man in charge of the roster.

Ceedee is a fine player, but he's not a #1 in the sense that Diggs, Jefferson, Hill, and Chase are. Nor Cupp when he's healthy.

No there isnt

Ceedee Lamb has been a better player here than Amari Cooper was. One of them is considered a WR1 and the other one weirdly is a 1B…

You have to be able to examine skillsets to see it. Gotta look past the CeeDee love. I like him too, BTW.

Cooper has all the physical skills to be a #1, but doesn't have the head. My guess is that football is just something he's good at, I doubt if he's really into it.

Niners usually play zone but against us they played cover 1 man most of the game. That pretty much told us they didnt fear our receivers. They basically said our cover guys are better than your receivers and you can't beat us .

Most rational people will disperse the blame at multiple people. It's not just the qb, just the wrs, just the lack of a run game, or just the coach. We have failures in multiple areas now.

Yup. Team game. No black and white answers.

How?

Brandin Cooks was a 1k yd receiver everywhere hes went.

Ceedee is coming off b2b 1k yd season and had more catches than Dez Bryant ever had in a season

Ill give you that Gallup is an issue
If CD misses any game time, we have nothing

This has nothing to do with Ceedee love.

Top-6 in almost every receiving category, but hes not a 1 because hes not as good as the first team all pros? Lol

I think Jerry would admit the mistake if things got really bad.

Now, I don’t believe he would come out and say he was wrong, but I believe the changes on the team would be him admitting to mistakes.

Thats why living in mediocrity is bad. You’re never truly bad enough to have someone like Jerry drop you.

CD is too frail to be a #1. Cooks is on his 100th team, and Gallup still isn’t 100%. Not to mention, the garbage heap at TE.

Yes, they suck. Dak is still stinking it up, however.

Well, we agree on a lot, just not on this one. Funny thing is, there's only a slight difference as to how we perceive Lamb. I'm thinking 1B, you're thinking 1A. If you think about it, there's just not much difference in our thinking.
