IK Andy and co. are in this groove of doing what needs done to win and living to fight another day, but I just think this is the ultimate opportunity to get your offense into a rhythm that can build onto next week.
Can we go out there and execute in a way that creates an expectation of success? Can you hit on a deep ball or two, at least one to Worthy, that makes those throws ones that both PM and X expect to complete moving forward?
It's one of the big differences between the O and D right now. The defense expects to dominate each week. The offense hopes to. When you have a confidence builder in front of you that has bad blood built in... take advantage. [Reply]
My biggest hope from the offense would be to see Worthy involved in some mid-range throws. Crossers, etc. The deep bombs are great and make no mistake I'd love to see that, but developing more of a route tree that can be more heavily relied upon would be the best outcome. We need him to become the WR1. [Reply]

Agree with the idea of getting him more involved and I am sure similar to Rice last year they may, but I think the beauty of the Hopkins add is Worthy does not need to be #1 this year anymore.
I think there is a lot of potential left to scratch with Worthy but I don't know that he can ever be high volume prototypical #1 type of WR - like Rashee was becoming.
And that is perfectly fine because he has unique traits that make his impact #1 esque even when he is just running routes. If you get a guy at pick #28 who scares the defense on every play, that's a big add. [Reply]
