Which is true. The drops though can't be attributed to development. He's a wide receiver and I assume he's been play wide receiver since high school. He's supposed to catch the ball. He has to catch the easy throws and make the plays he was brought it in the make. He's a 1st round pick so there are high expectations which isn't unreasonable. Anyway he's not a bust yet because he's 6 played games into his career.
The offense needs to get these penalties under control. STOP HOLDING!!!!
Just now, rafahash said:Seriously? He's a bust after six games?
Maybe not a bust. But be honest, you expect your 2nd round pick to play. Where else does a 2nd round pick not play except for injury.

I firmly believe we have the most holding penalties in the league. I would be shocked if we weren't.

KAMAR AIKEN WAS WIDE WIDE OPEN!!
Look at it again. He ended up wide open after the ball was in the air. He kept on zig zagging so you can't tell where he was going to end up.
ODB killed us. Jimmy isn't perfect but before he got hurt ODB was ineffective. You can blame Harbaugh for not taking the points but when your offense can't get one yard, you don't deserve to win. Plain and simple. Juice should have blocked that guy. smh.
Safety and CB ran into each other.
People can stop hating on Jimmy now. Jimmy in the game, Beckham ineffective. Out of the game, 2 TDs and over 200 yards. UGH
Just now, metalraven said:Exactly. No reason what-so-ever to go for it on 4th and goal with the worst O in the league. When an O is this bad, you take any points you can get.
No you're wrong. We were running the ball fine. If Juice blocks the guy instead of trying to cut him down. TW gets through brute force because he could turn up.
Judon and ZDS need to come up big. Suggs seems out; wearing his ballcap.
Aiken and Flacco with the play. Still don't like rolling Flacco out, his options are always taken a way.
Was behind him a bit but NFL receivers catch that. I'm getting tired of BP =/
We lose Jimmy and then O'dell starts going off. Ugh. When did he get concussed?
Just now, JO_75 said:Here comes the "We would be leading right now if we took the FG last time" crowd.
There already here. Ignoring the fact that Juice should have made a block and we score.

I don't know how your offense fails to get 1/2 a yard. You can blame Harbaugh all you want but if Juice actually blocks that guy, West gets in because he could turn up.
Just now, ludy51 said:Totally Harbs's fault juice didn't man up on his guy
Ikr he needs to make his players play better. /s
Juice has to man up on that guy.
Just now, 52520Andrew said:Why the heck is Will Davis on OBJ?
At least the Blue Angels are putting on a show
Who else do we put on him? Jimmy is concussed.
Just now, jdynamite said:Yae and we got our trademark FG. When we could have scored a TD and killed their will to win
With trademark holding penalty to make the drive more difficult too.
They need to fix the holding penalties seriously. Trestman wasn't doing a great job but holding penalties were biggest killers of offensive drives. Also if we're gonna make underneath throws, they need to be in stride so we have better opportunity of getting the 1st.
I assume they want to make sure he retained possession to the ground. I assume...
Also Mornhinweg shouldn't call TE screens anymore. They don't work for us.
Are we the most penalized team for holding?

Juice makes that block like he supposed to and we score. It's not like weren't able to run the ball effectively today. Harbaugh has made some dumb decisions this year. (the fake fg), but this was not the incorrect decision. 95% of coaches (this includes OCs too) would go for it on 4th down right there. At some point your players need to execute.
