That's all I'm saying.
I'm not sure that Lazor was bad last year, let alone "so bad". Prior to losing Eifert and Green the team put up some high scoring games.
Gotta remember that our top two TEs went down for the season, then Green, then Andy. Driskel is a couple levels below Andy. Andy didn't look all that good without Eifert and Green, Driskel looked worse.
The things is, Ross never did step up, even when Andy was in there and even when Green was out there to draw coverage away from everyone else. Instead, Ross just sorta tuned out. Can't lump Andy into the same category as Ross.
This is not a make or break year for Andy, but it sure is for Ross.
