Has Chase peaked

This is what you said, word for word. "I hope he starts playing to that level but you have to admit it has been a while since he put "elite" numbers together over a stretch of games"


Anyone can take a portion of any batch of numbers and make them look good or bad to fit their agenda. I simply took a portion of a batch that proves what you said is false.

[Whatever]

*shakes head*

Folks are focused on raw stats and not on where the stats come from.

I've heard names like Lamb and Hill invoked. Ceedee Lamb had 181 Targets last year. Hill 170. So, those guys are getting 10-11 passes thrown to them a game. Chase has 11 Targets in two games so far this year. If you're expecting Lamb/Hill production, then you're expecting him to be theoretically twice as good as those guys given the number of balls he sees a game. And Chase has a catch % of over 90% so far, so there's not a ton more he can he do with what he's being given.

Zac runs, hate to say it, a very passive passing scheme. He wants the QB to take what the defense gives him. He doesn't make much effort to try to "scheme guys open.". That passive system only works when you have the talent out there to take advantage. Looking at our other WR's, Yoshi has 10 Targets, is only catching 50% of them, and averages a pathetic 3.3 Yards/Target. Irwin has 8 Targets, a 25% catch %, and a sickening 1.8 Yards/Target. That's frankly pathetic. Neither is a starting NFL caliber WR. I doubt either could even make the roster of half the teams in the league. But they are getting significant looks in this offense.

LOL, the lack of understanding isnt surprising, even when provided images of double and triple coverage on almost every play.  These uniformed posts are comical.
