In ready to call him a bust- deep threat receiver with so so hands, doesn’t seem like a playbook guy either so how you gonna use him in other ways? I think he’s fine as the occasional bomb threat but nothing more unless he puts the work in to get better.
Him and Goof have no chemistry.

It's expected of a professional but I can't recall Jamo throwing a fit about not getting looks. He always seems to play hard and blocks well. :yeshrug:

Is this a troll post? He had 1000 receiving yards last season lmao.

There was zero time to hit anyone on deep shots today and for whatever reason this was week two of Jamo mainly getting deep routes. Same issue I’d have if I was an Eagles fan: why isn’t AJ Brown running crossers and slants, if they can’t get him deep balls? That’s a play calling issue.

Also a weapons issue. Laporta been quiet all season, finally got some targets today. Not everyone is gonna eat.

So Arnold might be done for the season with a shoulder injury and Reed is gonna be out for a while with a hamstring injury.

Only way to adapt is to go heavy on pressure. The CBs can't be solved...I'm not sure any team in the league would be fine after losing their CB 1 and 2.

Alim coming back will be huge but we're also gonna probably gonna need more edge help. The sack and pressure numbers are really good after 5 games but the one area we're terrible in: quick pressures. Guys don't get to the QB fast enough, besides Aidan.

I also wouldn't mind putting Branch at nickel when we aren't in base (where he'd be at safety).

Mahomes is still Mahomes but KC don’t look that good. They look weak in trenches on both sides of ball

Chiefs don’t really have the WRs to exploit our CB injuries. With Alim back the pass rush should get to Mahomes.

How are you going to call him a bust compared to how he was used last year :what:

Draft CBs back to back at top of draft last year and they both out for year 🤦🏾‍♂️

Need to trade for someone. See what Seahawks want for Woolen.
