My biggest problem with Ross is that we drafted the pick before KC selected Mahomes. Talk about a fuck up.
Yes - but no one knew he would be that good. At the time, they really liked Dalton and he needed another WR - and Dalton was on a nice contract, IIRC - but I 100% agree...they should have already been looking ahead - but in 2017...
As good as the offense was, and as many turnovers and sacks defense had, it felt sloppy to me.
Once they got up 3 scores, it did feel like they kind of slowed down and took the foot off the gas a little bit. I think that annoyed Burrow. They got it back going after the pick 6 - but at that point, I think the aggravation had really already set in...
Gotta show up to day before walk through's if he is going to play. Not sure how that much talent can have a ten cent head.
I don't get this statement...teams see what coming?
Unless you are on a team that doesn't hold any kind of accountability - the easiest thing in the world to do should be to show up on days you need to be at practice/walkthrough. Forget about how hard you go, how much you know, how talented you are...forget all of that....because none of that matters if you fail to show up.
He's no Allen Iverson.Unless you are on a team that doesn't hold any kind of accountability - the easiest thing in the world to do should be to show up on days you need to be at practice/walkthrough.

ESPECIALLY on a week where they spent the entire week working you into the game plan as a major contributor....I mean - you can be made about the lack of PT and feel like you've done enough to get more chances - and that is EXACTLY what was happening the entire week leading up to the Raiders game....the had him 100% involved with high expectations of bring a key contributor....
And then to not show up - ON THE EASIEST DAY OF THE WEEK?! A WALKTHROUGH?!
Maybe he thinks he's Allen Iverson?
What exactly needs to be considered? To me, Yoshi is a good receiver on a scramble drill. That has allowed him to perform well in the redzone. Everything I have read from the advanced stat nerds is that he does not get open in the passing game enough. And he is playing on a team with Chase, Higgins when healthy, and Gesicki. A good third receiver should eat with Joe Burrow and the attention paid to our bigger stars. I just haven't seen it from Yoshi. I also want to see him win a contested catch for once.
they see the things that iosivas actually does well, and they can plan for them. he's had a lot of trouble getting open on routes and been rendered virtually as a non contributor several times now. in the beginning of the season, he caught some of them by surprise.
In games 1-4 he has the most separation yards of any WR on the team....so....not sure I agree with this...
Burton won't surpass me if he continues to be a jackass....I mean - that's the bottom line here.
I mean - this is just incorrect.
I'll take your word for it that he was somehow good those weeks.... Over at PFF they have him as 87th out of 91 receivers ranked. PFF is only one metric an we can quibble with some of their measures, but it's not completely wrong. Their stats match up with what I see when I watch TV - A guy with every advantage that isn't very productive.
