    Wait, so getting OL help isn’t surrounding him with a tool for success? Adding to RB aren’t providing him with weapons? 1 of which has a resume of being a weapon in the passing game, and another who’s said to be good at it but hasn’t had the opportunity. Making a team actually have to think about play action, instead of knowing they’ll stop Antonio Andrews without much concern? ! 1,000 yard WR is what we truly lack? Did you watch the run game last year? Your post couldn’t sound more ridiculous and misinformed.

    Corner and WR you would think would be our number 1 picks next year. However, J Rob is from the NE thought process, so besides Moss, they had no real big time WR so that leads me to believe we look elsewhere. The team needs speed so hopefully whatever the positions are we draft, they have some serious speed and can play of course.

    Yeah MM has more time on the ball, wasn't disputing that and handing the ball to a RB isn't a particular hard thing to do. I'm on about MM passing game, excluding TE what WR is going to cause problems to opposition CBs and be able to consistently make himself open to MM and gain long yardage, because I not seeing it and when we go to places like Denver the WR will get destroyed.

    But to think a run game isn't a weapon for a QB is absurd. Moves the chains, let's him control the game. Sets up play action which can solve the separation issue. You can't look at it in a vacuum, it's all relative.

    Again never said the run game wasn't a weapon. To see MM full potential you have to see him make passes which he his more Tha capable of doing, but need as you say the weapons to do that, Sharpe has been the most consistent but in the past 3 games we have been out received:
    SD: 228 TT:167
    CP:340 TT:245
    OR:291 TT:205
    fortunately our running game has created results but eventually opposition defences will shut this out and at the moment we don't have an alternative game as I don't think we have the WR to do this.

    No kidding opponents have had more passing yards in preseason games. The starting offense plays a portion of the game and our secondary blows. This doesn't say a damn thing.

    A big part of our pass defense's problems is LB's recognizing when they're supposed to be in pass coverage... Mularkey actually named Orakpo after one of the PS games. For whatever reason, Mularkey has indicated Blake is one of our CBs. Staying healthy is ALWAYS the key for any secondary...
