When you have witten now was not the time to draft for luxury. Where is the vaunted 12 offense.

I've been asking since the pre season! Turns out Garrett can't use it because the TEs are bad blockers, making it hard to run the ball. Using the 3 wides spreads out the defense, making it easier to run.
 
The guy is supposed to be such a great redzone target - great hands and tall. You would think that putting him on the field with 2 other good redzone targets Dez and Witten would give us an advantage. But nope, I guess not.
 
Because Witten is getting old? Weddle kind of won that match-up today.
 
poor guy went back home to play, and I don't think he even saw the field.
 
Because he was among the highest guy left on our draft board when it was time to pick?
 
Because we were trying to salvage the fact that we got hosed by San Fran and our first TE option was drafted by the Bengals, so we went with (what Jerry thought was) the next best thing.

Yup. See the sig.
 
I thought this was the week we would really see him used.

Hannah was out there getting killed in the running game.
 
We can't even get into the redzone to begin with......
We were in the redzone and instead of throwing up to Escobar or Dez, we go underneath pass to a rookie AGAIN. Our Coaching is amazing. Amazingly inferior.
 
It all comes down to coaching and Howdy Doody is just outright horrible. Oh yes he is not calling the plays. Ya right same damn offense.

And it was a great play until the rookie stretched out and caused a fumble.

Going to a rookie in crunch time is not that good of an idea, IMO. What's wrong with going up high to Dez or Escobar? They can't double both, or better yet, why not run it?
 
I'm a bit sick of these kinda of threads. We are 4 games into his rookie season, and he had a TD last game and was close to a second. Seriously, can we not act like reactionary prima donnas after ever loss? It's getting old.

yeah seriously. I don't see the point in getting upset with the trash that's on the field.

Everyone should expect these losing ways by now

There's nothing wrong with it but at the same time he's out there. He needs to contribute. I'm not going to scapegoat Garrett because of Terrance Williams rookie mistake. I'm sorry. That can't happen.
