The question must be asked: Is Ladd McConkey better than Marvin Harrison Jr?

It’s wild to me that the Cardinals would draft a guy 4th overall and target him as seldom as they do.

Even Tet McMillan is getting force fed the ball and he’s a rookie.
Tet isn't in the same boat - he's getting targets because he's the only receiver we have that can catch shyt DRAMATICALLY outside of where the ball should be

MHJ would be in the same situation here

this was bad. he started to turn his head before securing the ball and for some reason jumped. it's 101 that you shouldn't jump to catch a ball if you don't have to.

i like mhj so i'm rooting for him but i don't think he'll hit his ceiling with the current OC in arizona. that offense is so bad and boring. he has shown that he can make the big plays and catches but they keep using him for curl routes and these short 5 yard crossing routes. one thing he needs to do is be more aggressive. he needs to come back to the ball more and use his hands to go for the ball and snatch it. too many times i have seen him let the ball come to him.
This is a problem. He's got a big tendency to catch the ball with his body, not his hands. Add in his struggles to separate from NFL caliber DBs and well.... :francis:

I don’t know the play call on his first pick but it sure looked like MHJ cut his route off prematurely
It’s more about Kyler not targeting Harrison enough.

The guy is open over the middle of the field.
Kyler is practically allergic to throwing the football there.

nikkas still blaming Kyler? :mjlol:
I've watched every game the last two years.I'd say it was 80/20 Kyler's fault...Up until the last 2 weeks.MHJ just seems totally broken right now.It's been 90/20 MHJ's fault the last couple games.I think he just finally got completely discouraged.Him & Kyler have negative chemistry.Worst than zero.

I mean wtf. You’re designing pass plays for Michael Wilson? This is why I shyt on the Cardinals coaches. wtf are you doing?

Design plays for Harrison and McBride. That’s your alpha guys.

Who is the Cardinals backup? I bet he could run this offense better
