It'll come. And when JJSS comes back, the middle of the field will finally be open for business. All those anticipation routes over the middle from quick slants to skinny posts will become a regular part of the offense again.
Also, for those that dislike all the gadget plays we've been seeing in the RZ, well, we're going to see less of that kind of thing as DHop gets fully integrated into the offense. It won't completely go away, as I really believe that both Andy and the players like running those plays, but the need to do them will decline. [Reply]

I didn't realize they were dropping a bunch of passes. I mean Skyy Moore did, but I can't remember a ton of dropped passes. [Reply]
He’s going to be running drag option routes all day…. Once they go man to man he’s running slants. He’s probably going to do sigh adjustments. He is a professional WR the best we have had.
You are about to see what a HOF WR can do with Mahomes. It will be different from reek. Because Hopkins never gotten open with speed. [Reply]
