We’ve been watching Geno increasingly force the ball to DK this season, with last night’s 3/9/32 statline possibly the worst of the year so far, including three terrible deep sideline throws and a bad drop from DK.
DK has the best YPC of any receiver on the team, but is it worth the trade off of so many muffed targets? It seems like Geno is increasingly ignoring his progressions and just targeting Metcalf regardless of coverage and who else is open. It seems obvious that DK should not be getting a third of the team’s total targets at this point in the season.
He couldn’t get in bounds because it was a bad pass. Smith had all the time in the world on that play and he decided to try and throw it over a mountain.
