If his 7tds catches were based in any way on any skill then he would have been able to use it anywhere else on the field. IN fact he would have been able to use it EVEN BETTER between the 20's where defenses have more space to cover and receivers have more room to get open.
I'm sorry, but this is ridiculous. You don't think it took any skill to get open in all the trash in the red zone? And what you are saying about between the 20s is true, which is why is was that puzzling that they didn't use Ross in that way in that area...mostly vertical routes to take the top off the defense.
