We Tigers 71 Posted September 14, 2018 I think he still can be, but he might have to survive a few years of Gruden's outdated approach. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jgcrawfish 232 Posted September 14, 2018 I think he still can be, but he might have to survive a few years of Gruden's outdated approach. Getting some WR's who don't suck outloud couldn't hurt either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's basically saying, "Look right there, Cooper is wide open on your primary read and you didn't throw it!" That's not on the WR's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wizbang 10 Posted September 14, 2018 As Carr checked down to underneath receivers on nearly every play, I recalled the days of Warrick Dunn and Charlie Garner. Those were check down teams as well so Im surprised to see Gruden speak out. He was clearly fine and successful feeding underneath backs for those teams. Garner caught 72 passes one season. He made Alstott fantasy relevant. Tim Brown and Joey Galloway were good to great as well so its not all bad news for Cooper. That Richard guy seems like hes made for the Gruden offense. Lynch, not so much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
