Ross was a healthy scratch when we had better WRs available.  When we didn't he was out there for almost every play.  He didn't have to worry about getting benched for a drop.  Yet his catch % and yards per target were not just bad.  They were among the worst posted by any WR (with at least 50 targets) over the last decade.

Ross seems to be better this year, but I see no evidence that getting rid of Marvin was the reason he got better.

Looking at MLs body language and his how he answered questions pertaining to Ross you can tell  he wasn't exactly 100% Behind him.
Lewis gave us the same stale company lines about him.
ROSS only got more involved in the offense cause Eifert Boyd Green were on the IR.
But Lewis and Lazor really did not match his skill set with plays in the offense 
Oh whattya know..both Lewis and Lazor are no at their positions they held with the Bengals 
Wonder why?
Ross was used on routes that make the Lingerie Football league schemes look complex 
Taylor had installed a belief in Ross.
Marvin never did that. 
He was too busy with  his Favs like Core and Burfict 
Rewatch the Hawks game .how energized Ross looks 
He finally has a coach that is supportive of him and knows how 
To be creative with him.
You know..using him on more than 3 routes
