WR Dante "Do something...anything" Pettis

I'm driving a "narrative" based on a s**t ton of evidence from off season concerns coming true, dog house, 2 anti-kitty receivers drafted, Kyle praising aggressive receivers, Welker, Kyle comments on his game, snap counts, production, two more draft picks for a veteran to play his spot, etc. At some point point, it goes well beyond "flashes." The guy wants it or he doesn't. He lives it or he doesn't. He has it or he doesn't. Kyle thinks Sanders has it. We'll see more evidence if he believes Pettis has it going forward.

X is often the featured receiver in Kyle's offense. Can you name a time the slot WR or Z was featured?

You're certainly right about the others too. It's not just Pettis. He's just been given the biggest chance of the bunch. Taylor and Goodwin can't stay on the field. Hurd can't get on the field. Deebo has a hx of soft tissue injuries. Pettis always seems to have something too (ankle, knee, pec, etc.). Richie rarely gets run and Bourne plays the Z (few opportunities).

I mean kyle has had Andre Johnson and Julio Jones in some of his offenses so yeah they're featured regardless.

Kyles offenses haven't all been straight up the same outside of them all being top end running teams.

Not sure why people assuming a 2nd rd pick was suppose to be the "featured" X WR anyway. In today's game you need 3-4 good WRs not just some featured dude. Kyle's scheme is all about attacking a defense's weakness and like Kittle said the other day, they're basically learning a new play book every week that's specific to who they're playing.

Kid has started in 11 games lol and you're saying he need to get it or he's not gonna you bring up snap counts yet he's played more than any WR this yr

comparing sanders to Pettis is down right silly, one is a 10 yr vet and the other hasn't even started a full season in the NFL. He was brought in because of that. This team needs a vet who's been there.

i had a dream that we traded Pettis for Allen Robinson

edit: stupid me

It's the WCO...a WR is always featured. Progressions still exist beyond that but that's the whole point of a game plan. When you have talent like Kittle or play the X, that's usually the featured WR...certainly not the slot or Z (although they can be).

You don't think Deebo and Pettis for 3 draft picks...5 now if you count Sanders...were brought in to be featured in Kyle's offense? Really? Come on man. Both are clearly falling way short of expectations (for whatever reasons) hence the immediate need to bring in someone Kyle can trust to produce.

LOL...Sanders wasn't brought in because Pettis is young. He was brought in because the young receivers aren't producing and haven't earned trust. Period.

Let me guess...Pettis just needs another year and a half of patience before we come up with another spin?

Of course comparing kitty to Sanders is comical. One's a dog. The other's a kitty.

Another guy perfect for this system. That was certainly a lose-lose. He's still playing for another terrible QB and we've spent 8 draft picks trying to find a player like him.

It is pretty obvious that Kyle is not satisfied with Pettis right now, nor is he happy with the overall WR situation. If it were otherwise, the Sanders deal would not have happened.

Kyle said he was waiting for one of those young guys to emerge and take the #1 position. None have. Blame it on injuries or what have you, Kyle couldn't wait any longer. The ship is sailing.

For now, Sanders buys all those young, injured kids a year to get their act together and contribute or there will be more moves made to get this offense to the point Kyle demands. As much as the run game is at the epicenter of the offense, without a strong passing game, the offense will become predictable and shut down.

The gauntlet has been thrown down. Who will pick it up?

Kyle doesn't care. He is a former WR himself and has high demands/expectations. This is the Not For Long league if you don't live up to your billing.

100% spot on. It sucks because every one of those guys have been given chance after chance to become the man. And nothing. It's not like any of these young bucks had veterans they were competing with in pre season. All were given every snap to earn that job.

You're trying to hard to paint this guy as unprofessional. The stuff about Kyle having to stay on him for motivational reasons is fine. But I couldn't care less what TV show he watches on his own time..

I bolded that last part because it's not like he was watching TV while he was supposed to practicing or studying film.

That stuff genuinely is just for fun...honestly. Nobody is a more fun follow than him. Obviously.

Anyway, back to the point.

TRADE HIM NOW!!!

Kyle: "I'm really just looking for someone to step up and grab the lead and not let go."

Young Receiver Group: "Yeah, no, we good. Who else are you gonna give the job too? You invested so much in us! Sucka!"

John: "Emmanuel Sanders"

Young Receiver Group: "Oh s**t! My knee's better. My groin's better!"
