The routes were rather pedestrian. I thought we would have done some adjustments to get some guys open more.
I know TM had a rough game but the receivers did very little to get separation and open.
I haven't had the luxury of being at the games and watching on TV it's impossible to see what our receivers are doing so that's been my question all along, i.e., does Tanner just not see the field well and takes too long to go through his progressions or are our guys just not getting any separation? Thanks for sharing this information. Coach Likens needs to get on his guys to give 100% on every play because we have enough depth at the position to allow serious competition for playing time
Until this last game, I too, didn't have the luxury of watching the receivers. So its possible they have performed at a high level and I just happen to watch them in detail this one game. Still, midway through a season one would hope the receivers are preforming at a high level effort. Just didn't look that way agains Cincey
