Jamar Chase had...... 3 catches for 19 yards against the Colts 9 catches for 58 yards and against the Browns over 2 games 7 catches for 43 yards against the Ravens over 2 games 3 catches for 41 against the Chiefs Pittman had 5 catches for 44 yards against Houston. All receivers have big games and other games where they struggle.
-
Yeah youre right and he drafted Paye and Dayo to replace them.
-
Thats exactly what happened with Denico Autry. If you remember, he wasnt elite, his production could be replaced much cheaper and thats pretty much what happened. Ballard replaced him with Justin Houston, who produced. He replaced Houston with Ngakoue, who also produced. And then he replaced Ngakoue with Ebukam, who produced as well. But Autry has played very well in Tennessee and everytime he has a good game, it was basically an example of Ballards incompetence.
-
Here we go with the "take away his 75 yard TD".......while we compare his numbers to guys and include their biggest plays. Again, he plays with Gardner Minshew and faces tons of double teams, and Higgins doesnt. I dont think Higgins or Chase would approach Pittmans numbers if they played here under these circumstances. Good luck hauling in those passes downfield that just dont exist.
-
I think Pittman would chew up single coverage if he faced it and be one of the top pass catchers in the league. He gets all the doubles playing on this team. People forget that. And hes still super productive
-
Hes talking about touchdowns, I think. But touchdowns are either plays of over 20 yards, or redzone plays of less than 20 yards and both of those areas require elite ball placement from a QB to be successful. Again, people are just talking down on Pitt because he doesnt play with a top QB.
-
Thats not true. He carried our passing game all year and had almost 1200 yards. You have a strange idea of "not doing anything".
-
Burrow has thrown 600 passes in a season before, so I strongly disagree with that.
-
And if the tables were turned you would suggest thats because Higgins got open more often and was a better route runner lol
-
Bur youre including his TDs from other seasons where Joe Burrow was fantastic and his targets were much higher. The QB play is way more important than you are suggesting and Joe Burrow this year was still way better than anyone Pitt has got to play with. He hasnt had an opportunity to build any type of chemistry with a QB his entire career. If Higgins had more targets you would suggest its because he gets open more often.
-
I think they are gonna throw a ton of money at him if he is available. I dont think Eberflus is HC material and they know that.
-
Why do all of you think he cant do that? Hes a big receiver who makes contested catches. But when is the last time he had a QB who could place accurate balls downfield? I think he is better than Higgins and would absolutely catch 120 passes in Cincy.
-
And......there are some rumblings if Harbaugh wins the natty he WILL look to return to the NFL and thats the most likely spot.

Who Can we Use As Trade Capital In the Draft?
Goatface Killah replied to Boss7894's topic in Colts Football
What about just packaging future picks for a blue chip guy at a position of need? I would personally draft another QB. They MUST get that position figured out and I personally feel like this current team, as is with all its flaws, with a premier QB, is a bonafide contender with some internal development and a few other tweaks. Sure they need some improvement on defense and at skill positions on offense, but the biggest upgrade they could make is still at the QB position. And there are some good prospects this year. I like Daniels a lot. I love Ant but his health is a concern and until we know what we have we should be on the search. If we wind up with 2 competent QBs, then we have a huge trade chip to further develop the roster down the road and recoup the picks qe give up for the QB. -
I dont disagree, I thought Flus was a little more creative than Gus.
-
They tried, several times, Minshew couldnt execute and make them pay. He was either dumping it off to the first guy that popped open, leaving the pocket early, or throwing an errant pass.
-
If the Colts bring in someone else, its likely gonna be another zone guy, so I dont see a change this offseason. Its too hard to change your personnel to a completely different scheme, and that would set us back several years. I could however, see them bringing Eberflus back if he gets fired, but other than that I expect Gus to be back.
-
With Joe Burrow at QB. Pittman would catch 120 passes and have 2x more TDs with Burrow at QB.
-
If we followed your advice we would never build anything because you want to get rid of everyone all the time.
-
I dont blame him. I think hes better than hes been given credit for and has been held back tremendously by the QB situation here. Hes had what? 6 or 7 different QBs in his 4 years here?
-
They've been open all year. Pierce gets behind the defense quite a bit. Gardner is basically a "check down Charlie" type of QB who is getting rid of the ball first chance he gets 90% of the time. Its hard for Alec to look good with a QB like that. People dont like hearing it, but its true. This is why Ballard isnt gonna worry about the WR position that much this offseason, nor should he. He might add somebody to the mix but we have 3 good young talents at WR. Pierce just needs to develop a little more and be more of a focus. I have zero doubt about Downs and Pittman. I think they focus on defense in the draft.
-
Thats pretty ridiculous. How do you know when they "wanted" to stop him and when they wanted him to run for over 10 yards? Which he did a mind boggling 7 times in that game btw. Oh I know...... They didnt stop him very often all game....... But those are the only times they actually "wanted" to stop them? How convenient for your opinion. Gardner Minshew absolutely did not make any "amazing" throws in that game. Cmon man.
-
This is so true, but its just so disappointing given the situation. We were right there. But the gap between Minshew and Stroud was just too great and it showed at the end of the game. The throws Stroud made to Collins to start the game and on that scramble in the 4th quarter vs Minshews throw to Pittman that sailed 15 yards over his head out of bounds and his attempted swing pass on 4th down, is the entire story here. The play call is just frustrating for me because I honestly think we couldve still won, in spite of it.
-
I believe I saw a small child in the crowd haul in that pass intended for Pittman in the first half. Maybe we shouldve went to him again?
-
Right lol
