Some want to blame predictable, simplistic, repetitive play calling for our WRs always seeming to be blanket covered. Yes, I do agree that many other teams do seem to have more instances of receivers being wide open, and able to catch the ball and have room to run. I don't think that other teams are benefitting from vastly superior play calling as much as simply having more time to let their receivers get open and their QBs study the field.
There are some of the same conversations we were having about the Bengals, the last 3 years that Andy was the QB. I've brought it up before, an OL must give their QB at least 3 full seconds of protection on every drop back (though more is preferred). In the current state of things on the line, Joe sometimes has defenders literally arriving about the same time the shotgun snap reaches his hands. It's not a QB/WR issue folks, it's the OL..
