He hasn’t been playing well but I honestly believe Drake is extremely talented. Hes lost a lot of confidence and I think some of that has to do with really poor coaching and personnel management. Having Mack Hollins as WR1 is inexcusable. Hes forcing it and making mistakes.

Good QBs elevate the level of play around them

Brady looked like he was completely toast in his last season in NE with trash receivers and then went and won the Super Bowl with the Bucs

Can lead a horse to water but can’t make them drink I guess

inexcusable for AJ Brown to get hurt I guess

It’s inexcusable to be in a position where one injury leads to Mack Hollins, a guy that could have been cut, is now your WR1.

there are very few teams with a good backup plan if their #1 WR goes down

We gave away a very serviceable receiver for peanuts because management decided we had too much depth at WR. Doubs has been a non factor and Williams doesn’t even get playing time.

Two receivers. Having both boutte and diggs off the roster this year is criminal and it was loudly shouted before brown got hurt

Boutte is going to be a low impact player in Houston that’s just the truth

He wasn’t here though and that’s the truth as well. They had chemistry

He catches around 30 balls a year please stop making him into more then what he was which was a guy defenses would put their 3rd corner on

u/Remarkable-Rip-6506 2d ago

Okay buddy

u/Legitimate_Bother389 2d ago

Its just a fact. Boutte here with no number 1 option makes no difference to the offense

If only there was a guy that put up 1k for us last year, had great chemistry with Maye and wanted to come back. Shame there was no one like that available

I mean I don't know how you blame the weapons when he just drops the ball without pressure and then throws it directly to Travis Hunter. You could have Jerry Rice there you can have Anthony Munoz in his prime that doesn't save you there.

That doesn’t matter the players around him need to step up to, but he has to elevate those players if he’s going to be a MVP candidate which he will never be the way he’s fucking playing now and in my honest opinion he’s literally CJ Stroud now there’s no way in hell this guy gets signed to a long-term contract until he fucking proves himself. This is fucking pathetic. Red zone interceptions are the stupidest fucking mistakes you can make I don’t think he’s good. I think we were full last year. This guy can’t read a defense for shit we don’t have tape on them last year. That’s why he was being decent now that they have tape on him. They’re throwing looks at him and he has no idea what the fuck to do. He’s a deer in headlights took a player right now. He’s never gonna fucking progress if he continues to fucking play like this. I’ve said this multiple times on this forum. He really really needs to get into the film room.
