People talk about defenses rolling coverage to his side and some of this is true, but he has had a huge issues with drops as well. He dropped a touchdown vs the Browns, dropped a touchdown which turned into a pick vs the Chargers (with two other drops yesterday).
He has had opportunities to make plays, but he isn't making them. I do think Chase is more dangerous and he has been seeing more attention, but some of his deflated stats recently are his own doing whereas Higgins is making the most of his opportunities. It is closer than some people think.
But people forget they Higgins has had the exact same problems earlier in the year. Dropped TDs, dropped deep passes, fumble against the Bears. Both these guys have made mistakes, I think they’re even on that front.
Both are very good, so the discussion is pointless honestly. However, to look at Chase and get upset while completely disregarding Higgins start to the season seems biased…
