These last two games are full indication that we need a new slot who can actually get open. Other teams look at two players on our offense, Sutton and vonte. They cover Sutton and load the box. No other wr gets open —> Russ has to hold trying buy time for the others and the oline gets beat and sack/hold. By no means am i saying the oline is great penalties are BAAD. But theyre holding up against pretty damn good pass rush. Mims is nice but hes deep threat, Sutton is red zone. Missing dulchich is really screwing us, we need someone to fill that roll as a wr2/wr1 and we need one that can get open.

    What I don’t get is why WRs just give up after their routes. If Jeudy could run around and try to get open when Russ was scrambling, our offense would look so much better. Like sure Russ needs to trust his receivers more and not hold the ball or throw so many checkdowns, but it really doesn’t seem like the guys are doing him any favors.

    We don’t need a slot receiver so much as a receiver who keeps trying until the whistle
