Until Ross proves to be a consistent threat I don't think teams will change anymore than they would if Malone was out there. I would like to see Malone or even Tate get some playing time. Ross to be honest has not earned any respect yet, and I will say yet cause I think he might come around, for teams to drastically change the way they play defense against us. Production gets respect, they don't give a damn about a 40 time. I just don't think it makes any difference if he plays or not.
Did you see the game Sunday? We couldn't get them deep.
Here's the fact: Without Ross, we are slow on offense. AJ Green is all-pro receiver, but he isn't a burner. Boyd isn't a burner. We didn't have Gio.
Ross has a TD in 2 of the 4 games he's played this year.. What has Malone or Tate done?
Ross forces safeties to respect the deep ball. When he isn't in, AJ gets doubled, and our offense has to rely on crossing routes to get open. That greatly reduces our playmaking ability.
