Winston’s problem last year was Tom Brady’s problem in 2019 and may be Rodgers or Maholmes problem this year. Anyone would be tentative and mediocre when they don’t have any receivers who would make the team on the 2022 Jets. You can’t complete passes to your own positive thinking, you need actual receivers who get open enough to believe your eyes when it happens.

Now that I can agree with.

Our WR room is the most talented it's ever been, and also the most talented JW has ever worked with. We ought to see something special this year .

This and he was drilled by Payton to be careful with his throws so much it held him back. Plus, having the best receiving back in the game.

That "best receiving back in the game" was part of the issue for some reason. He led the team in drops last season by a large margin with nine. I believe he had nine drops in 2020, as well.

His hands aren’t the best. I would say most of his drops are concentration drops though. I wish we had Reggie Bush in todays NFL.

Yup. He's always looking to make that big play, which he often does, and takes his eye off the ball. Other players on the team with three or four drops on the season always catch the flack from fans.

I’d say a few of us drops were due to fatigue and wanting to take a break from being hit every play too.

He only had a combined 287 touches (240 carries/47 catches) last season. I doubt fatigue came into play with that low workload.

It’s plausible, but I’ve noticed Kamara doesn’t always have the best attitude on field. I just don’t bring it up because I know how people will turn on a player for stuff like that.
