This is the last time I respond to someone quoting me in this thread and mentioning CJ, because that's not what my point is about, it was never what my point was about, so stop trying to make it about it. This conversation started with talking about extending/re-signing Hurst for 2023 and/or beyond.
Hurst targets by down..
1st: 15
2nd: 18
3rd: 15
Hurst targets by yards to go..
1-3: 8
4-6: 5
7-9: 8
10+: 27
He doesn't average more than 8.5 yards per catch regardless of any of those 7 criteria.
...I don't know if there's many teams at all running 2 WRs/1 TE. They're almost all running 3 WRs/1 TE, or 2 WRs/2 TEs. There's only 3 teams with a FB playing at least 1/3rd of the snaps.
Still think Hurst's numbers would be much better if Burrow saw him and hit him when he was open earlier in the season.
Burrow was having trouble seeing the open guy for some reason, with Boyd and Hurst it was noticeable at least to me in a
couple of games. As Casear said, he was open further down the field and Burrow just didn't go to him and instead targeted
a doubled and often covered Chase. Glad to see Burrow seeing the entirety of the field again and hitting the open man.
Like I said earlier I think Hurst's YPC will go up as the season goes on cause of many factors. A better OL, a better run game,
and when Chase comes back more weapons for Burrow to choose from and Defenses cannot cover everyone.
