With all the hyperbole coming out of training camp about how our touted D couldn't cover him and he was set for a breakout season, where the hell was Aiyuk?! Was it a factor of not being targeted? Not getting open? Not being seen? A regression to his ghost season? There's plenty to criticize about Lance's performance, but also much to go around to the rest of the team as well. Certainly the O-line ( KS and Lynch deserve a verbal beatdown for letting this area get this neglected/mismanaged). The D breakdowns on crucial plays. Penalties. And maybe the absence of critical offensive components like Aiyuk. The question is, whose fault is it, that he was so absent?

this might be a stretch but monsoon like rained games are slightly harder to throw in vs games with ideal weather conditions

I love going back and looking at these threads, 1st few pages, man, people were wrong on Aiyuk, dude is a gonna be a baller this year.

Its fun isnt it? I stand by my initial comment in this thread. Loved picking Aiyuk but dont think it was necessary to move up to get him. I expect big things out of him this year.

I was ridiculed a lot for saying I liked Aiyuk more than Ruggs. Aiyuk was one of my favorite players in the draft. I admit that I also loved Jalen Hurd. The draft is a crapshoot after all.

There was a lot to like about Hurd. Id still be open to a similar type of player. But draft them 6th or 7th or UDFA.

That had to be something they saw on film. Nasty nonetheless.

I think the OLB was expecting a crack block that never came. Play the 49ers, get cracked.

I seen Deebo tried the same thing on another play but wasn't as affective.

I really feel like Jordan Matthews could have been that player. Sucks he got injured. He could have been a decent weapon at TE. I know some people disagree but he looked great from the clips I saw.
