He's open, now he just needs to get the ball in his hands.

 

 

He needs to catch the ball too. Twice this season he should’ve laid out for a pass, but pulled up. This is not an NFL receiver until he learns this and can do it week in and week out.

2 drops that would have resulted in 1st downs. 

I believe he is going to be a good receiver but replacing Pierce as stated by some is nonsense.

I'm glad Flacco got game time with him last Sunday. It showed that it wasn't Richardson being the issue and AD needs to continue putting the work in. We have alot of good things to look forward to on offense.

Just my perception after very limited observations - AD looks like he is hearing footsteps on some of his routes and pulling up somewhat. Hope I am wrong, but that is the impression I was left with.

It seems that way to me also. He seems to pull up every time a DB gets near him.

I was one of the people who thought he’d replace AP based off the possibility of him producing more.  Needless to say I was wrong.  From what I see it’s a little bit of him getting missed or him not making the extra effort to bring the ball down.   

 

But either way there will be a time someone does get replaced because him being at the top of separation stats as a rookie is insane.  As said, he needs to put it together and that also includes blocking.  But when he does put it together, he’s going to be a dog.

I'm not worried about AD, ironically his problem is the same as ARs. He needs more reps with the QB to get timing down and how they like routes run, but he's also 4th in the depth chart behind Pittman, Downs, and Pierce so he isn't getting as many reps to build that rapport. As the season goes on I'm sure we will see improvement and more receptions, he's getting the separation which is huge. Remember he's still just a rookie going into his 5th game.

Once he gets used to the speed of the NFL, he will be fine. 

I was being a little sarcastic with my comment.  There were a few who said he would the 3rd WR and take APs spot right away.  AP isn't going anywhere anytime soon IMO.

      Colts vs Steelers post game

      By crazycolt1 · Posted

      The Refs gave them a head start on the very first drive. Calling roughing the passer was bogus. Then there were no calls too.

      2024 MLB Baseball

      By Lancer1 · Posted

      Atlanta is very beat up, and missing several of their stars. With Chris Sale not even on the Wild Card roster, Manager Brian Snitker was forced to trot out a guy who was making only his 2nd MLB start he lasted 1 & 1/3rd, giving up 4 hits & 3 runs, to include a homerun. Padres starter Michael King, a converted relief pitcher who was also making his 1st postseason start, was masterful. He pitched 7 shutout innings, scattering 5 hits but not walking a batter, while striking out 12, one shy of his career high for a game. Oddly enough, King's only other postseason appearance was for the Yankees during the shortened Covid season, in San Diego wirth cardboard cutouts in the stands. The atmosphere at Petco Park was raucous, and the team fed off it. Two of the biggest pieces that the Padres acquired from the Yankees in the Juan Soto trade, King & catcher Kyle Higashioka came up big today, King with his performance on the mound and Higashioka accounted for half of the the Padres runs with a solo homerun and a sacrifice fly.

      Actually you went 10-6, your wins were: Cowboys Vikings  Bengals Texans  Colts 49ers  Commanders  Chiefs  Raiders Lions   That would put you 10-6 and 34-30 overall.
