(12-15-2019, 10:48 PM)THE PISTONS Wrote: Boyd and Taylor are having a bit of a tiff.The WR has not extended their arms strait out to catch the ball away from their body when defenders are behind them or came back to the ball to get it when the QB throws the ball late to them. So this lands in the coaches lap including Taylor you claim to be offensive mastermind but you cant coach a WR up to catch a ball properly. This issue is not new to this year tho its been going on around here for years the WR want to let the ball hit them in the chest and wrap their arms around it like small kids catch the ball.
Here's a link to the article...but essentially Taylor blamed the WR's for the interceptions. Boyd was targeted on 2 of them...and he criticized the gameplan.
"Three of them were against man-to-man coverage, one-on-ones," Taylor said. "And we got bullied. We did. Guys could go compete, knock the ball down, go get a one-on-one [ball]."
In turn, Bengals receiver Tyler Boyd, who was targeted on two of those interceptions, was critical of the game plan and scheme against New England. Boyd, who finished with three catches for 26 yards, said the method of attack wasn't "top-notch" like it normally is. When asked to elaborate, Boyd was blunt.
"What did it look like out there?" Boyd said. "Did it look like anything was working?"

That being said ZT can not call a game he either runs the ball too much or throws the ball too much no balanced game at all he has no feel for the game and will most likely never win more then 8 games in a year no matter who is playing for him.
Dalton deserves a lot of the blame for ball placement throwing the ball behind his WR right into the arms of the defenders. But this is a poorly coached team and the record reflects it. If ZT is here next year he might want to watch his tongue cause Boyd is on the field playing for him while AJ is a bum on the bench. If ZT is here next year he will have to depend on Boyd as well as the other WR so he needs to bite his tongue and coach these guys up at least the ones that are willing to get off their ass and go out onto the field.
