But the big stat line for me —> RED ZONE (0-3). Settling for fgs instead of TDs.

It’s the “little” things that get you beat on Sundays.

Details, details.

Indeed. Like catching passes that hit your hands.

That's a COACHING issue... It's about MOTIVATION... Unless you are suggesting that Receivers at the PROFESSIONAL LEVEL don't know how to catch a football?

You seem to Be suggesting that receivers at the professional level can’t catch unless a couch motivates them. I disagree. They should do their damn job and catch the damn ball. This isn’t Pop Warner.

So they CAN catch! But they don't or won't. Why not? (By the way, I LOVE that you wrote "couch" instead of "coach". Sounds about right).

An, the old autocorrect insult. Pretty sorry when you have to resort to that.

Don't be insulted by autocorrect. Sometimes it gets it right!

If a player requires a coach to motivate them to catch a ball or to keep from moving prior to the snap then it is 100% THAT player's problem. That's something they should have already mastered well before ever becoming a professional.
