Marshall + Decker = 305 targets
Green + Jones = 234 targets

The Jets used their top 2 WR's almost 30% more than Cincinnati, mostly because they never used their TE (Eifert 72 targets, Cumberland 13 targets).

WRs who are open more will be targeted more.

Marshall & Decker = 6 combined games with <50 yards
Green & Jones = 12 combined games with <50 yards

They vanished less, so they got more targets. People always equate more targets to just being used more, but never give credit to the fact that the best WRs in the league always have more targets because they're simply open more often. If Marvin Jones was beating his guy by 3 yards every play, I am pretty sure he'd end up with 200 targets regardless of who Dalton intended to throw the ball to.
