Lol. Isn’t that sad. 2 years of being in the same system and he still don’t know who to block. I guess someone could be in charge of pointing him out. “Rico.. hit the guy in the middle.”
Will he get there is what I wonder? Most of these players have been playing since they were kids. If I was him I wouldn’t be rapping. Players and coaches would be sick of me. On the phone and in the staffs ear wanting film and assistance.
And Witten would have helped him more than anyone. Of course he was never gonna see the field while Witten was still playing but he would have helped him.
Like a concussion in practice?
Kinda like Dez at Ok State. There was a report that the coaches always had him line up on their side so they could tell him what to do.
I agree but when we drafted him. I'm am sure they knew he didn't know much of anything. He had been away for 7years or so. The game changes every few seasons in the NFL so we know a guy that hadnt been playing since he was in middle school didn't know anything. he had to learn routes and how to run them, the terminology. Hes learned that. Now he has to understand who to block and why . That is the last step,its a catch 22 because he is only going to learn by being on the field, the problem is him not knowing who to block can hurt his qb or shut down the play. To me this is why preseason is valuable because he can learn a ton by being on the field and it won't hurt your playoff hopes. He needs to play as much as possible in passing and running. The other young guys need it too so the coaches have to balance it all out. He has most of the raw things you need like the routes, how and where to run and the play calls now he needs to understand how to block and who. With a year more he should be able to grasp that. The coaches have suffered alot already. They might as well give him that third year because the reward would be so great if he catches on with the understanding of the game. I feel like his potential to help our team is just as great as jaylon's or Randys. We gave them time it is about to pay off in a huuuge way! I think gathers impact could and will be just as big on the offense with one more season.
Yeah he complained on twitter that they lined up the same way for years. Maybe that’s why? Lol. Maybe now we will be more productive.
He did something like that here in Dallas his first year. He hadn't been out of football for 7years but the point is his potential is high. He is a big time potential scorer. Anything you can get a guy that can produce points because he is a mismatch all the time. Thats worth working the kinks out of unless you have someone who will help our team to the point that we won't miss him for any reason
Apples to acorns?
