Makes sense. QB can't do it all. Receivers need to find some way to get more yards after the catch.
But something is off with Pickens this year. Maybe a down year, maybe it's Schottenheimer, maybe it's the lack of time of possession we're getting. Or we're just spreading the wealth profusely, someone's gonna be left more empty handed than the others. Mingo is young and Flournoy is a threat when you're least expecting or the defense loses him in a solitary instance ...he's just not an alpha like Lamb.
I think Schottenheimer and his egregious playcalling is absolutely the main reason. He called 8 pass plays in the 4th quarter and overtime of the Cardinals game. Of course the receivers aren't getting their yards. But we had some drives stymie against the Bucs and Packers due to tip ball interceptions and refs calling that Winters pick 6 back didn't help.
