Well, part of the issue is the rotational approach to begin with, IMO. With playoff caliber coaches, QBs, and personnel; I'd think that once the saw the guy who was only good at one thing, they would audible into doing the other. So if the light guy Lewis is playing 3T a lot, TEN is going to feed Henry until the 3T stops getting washed out. -
When Peyton had his issues in 2015 with his foot, Kubiak benched him and went with Osweiler because Peyton was hurting the team at that point. This is a HOF QB we are talking about who had earned a LOT of rope. Once Peyton had minor surgery and was back and active and ready to go, that is when Kubiak put him back, and Peyton at least steadied the Broncos ship during the playoffs. Unless it gets to a point where Rivers' play hurts the Colts like with Peyton where he threw 3 or 4 picks in 1 game within 2 quarters while the Broncos played the Chiefs, Rivers is our starter. -
It's not even about his production. After he got back from his injury his production has actually been fine. I'm not one of those who wants ungodly numbers from him to think he's showing promise. But I do want to see him beat his man off the release on he outside. I do want him to win some contested balls and show body control and good hands. My problem with him right now is that ... he just... doesn't win his reps really. He needs his man to get stuck in traffic or for a defensive breakdown to happen in order to make stuff happen. Just an example - look at what Claypool is doing. Look at what Ceedee Lamb is doing... I couldn't care less if he ends the year with 400 yards and 2TDs... It's not what this is about... it's about me wanting to see some flashes of what he could become with development. So yeah, sure... I absolutely agree with you that it's still early in his career and there is time for him to get better and develop, but we still can watch what he's doing now and where he's struggling and evaluate that. IMO he's struggling with pretty much every single aspect of playing X-receiver. Which is why Reich started using him a ton in the slot after his injury. This is not a coincidence. The jump in production coicides perfectly with Reich moving him inside to the slot and scheming things for him. -
Rattle on about your interpretation about what's going on, rather than your knowledge of it. Why are babbling about something irrelevant, like hindsight? There was no looking back. There is no hindsight. The trade up for Lewis was criticized immediately when it happened. My thought yesterday merely triggered a 2.5 year old memory. It wasn't a new thought based on hindsight. If you don't know that, you're not qualified to comment about the situation or about me. Let it go, because you've revealed you ignorance on the matter. And it was a one sentence comment at the end of a five sentence paragraph. It was a side comment. It wasn't a deal until you made it one. Do us a favor. Smarten up, or get out.

I think strong side DE plays more snaps for us than weak side DE with more run stopping responsibilities like Sheard and Houston. I am not sure if that is a systematic conscious approach or something that happened by chance. In other words, they want a few jacks who do only 1 trade on a rotational basis instead of 1 jack that does several trades for the weak side DE position. However the hit percentage seems to be low so far with several dart opportunities at the draft board. That approach only works if those jacks do jack but if they don't do jack, who the jack is won't matter.
