Not particularly. Right now we aren't playing Hopkins more than half the snaps.

When Hollywood Brown comes back and Hopkins snap share goes up north of 75% Watson's snaps are going way down.

Justin Watson isn't a problem on this team.

I don't think he's the problem. He's a symptom of the problem more than anything.

And right now, Hopkins or Brown taking snaps from him is wishful thinking. They might limit Hopkins the rest of the way. And who knows how Brown will play.

I'm confident they will work it out because I trust them. But right now there's no evidence to support it, just hope.

Brown's snaps have to come from somewhere. They're not gonna take snaps from X or Nuk.

I don't think Watson is 'the problem' either. I think he's just symptomatic of a problem with the offense. No WR in the NFL is getting as many snaps as he is for so little production.

If none of our other WRs can take over a significant number of Watson's snaps, when he's obviously not out there to catch passes, it says that our WR room is broken somehow. Which it certainly is, after losing both Hollywood and Rice early in the year.

Well, when your top two WR's are on IR, yeah, that'll happen.

Brown has been on IR since pre-season. Rice since what, September?

Injuries are the problem. It's been a rough year that way.

Last year, Toney and Moore face planted.

the year before, Juju played most of the season on one leg.

It is what it is.

To be fair, he's played an average of just over 500 snaps every year he's been here. It's not just an injury issue because it dates all the way back to 2022.

If memory serves, the majority of the DRob hate was centered around his desire to run backwards after the catch.
[Reply]

I remember myself hating him because his production didn't match his usage.

There were a few people out there that pulled the "he's a good blocker" crap with him too though.
