Uhh did you see that catch late, beautifully done, he does more than get the ball, just because you don't hear his name called doesn't mean he isn't doing anything.
rewatched the old Craig at FB games, puts the entire era to shame. Even Rathman or Marc Logan at FB destroys this era.
it was tooo prettaiiiii !!!! too bad he is not used more often..
Ive said for years Juice is good for 30 catches or so. Especially considering he gets no attention.
ALWAYS believe that too.. especially the money we are paying him... Rathman once caught 72 passes if not 73 and that's with JR-JT-RC-BJ.. not sure why we can't get him the ball more often..
.. oh .. that's right.. it's the play calling.
Low volume of passing, not even just for now, but even in compared to the 49ers of Steve Young, we throw a low volume. Personally, I get the whole complementary offense and setting up other things, but because Juice is not a guy people are game planning to stop, IMO, he can be used for so many quick passes and pick up 5+ yards easy, which would be just as good if not better than the runs. Juice was also a TE in college and has demonstrated he has good hands. I hope to advance to some point (most likely under Trey) where we look intermediate, deep, and then come back to the short pass if the first two aren't open.
I like how our run game goes, but it requires to use of so many guys (Juice and Kittle) who can be devastating elsewhere to get going. It's like we are leaving 50 catches and 500 + extra yards between the two of them on the field because they have to block so often.
