Is Ben Johnson designing Jamo's plays?

That’s exactly what I mean. Any play where he is running laterally (unless it’s a reverse type play with plenty of misdirection) instead of up the field is a waste and just asking for him to get blown up, like we saw with his helmet flying 10 yards away.

They were doing the same thing with James Houston all preseason. Trying to make him into something he’s not.

You don’t need EVERY single player on the team to be some versatile chess piece.

Right again - and now Houston’s out for the year w/the broken leg.
But Williams needs to catch the damn ball, otherwise Gibbs is poised to make him an afterthought.

Imo Ben sometimes seems to get too cute/overthinks things. I still think he’s a good OC, but at times it looks like he tries to stick a square peg in a round hole.

It’s almost comical at this point. Jamo is the equivalent of a kid who struggled as a freshmen through junior year, aced his senior year somehow…. And the carried a 1.0 GPA in college, but his parents insist it’s the professors, the dean, the text books, etc

Jamo can’t run routes, and he can’t catch. Maybe that will change, but as of right now, he is easily the worst WR I have ever seen at the NFL level- I can’t almost guarantee his 8 drops on 21 targets is something nobody has ever witnessed. Then consider the 3 times he abruptly broke of his route with the ball already in the air… and it’s like???

I mentioned the game where his arm was tugged that he didn’t even remotely adjust, turn back, get his other hand up- and posters literally suggested that he was so caught of guard by the hand tug that his brain couldn’t possibly adjust to trying to catch the ball one handed?

If that was remotely logical, then a UFC fighter should just grab one wrist, and the opposing fighter won’t be able to block or punch with the remaining arm?

Last night on his drop, on a short pass where he was wide open…. It bounced off two forearms. I’m sure somebody tech savvy can dial up a screen shot to prove me wrong by a millisecond or centimeter- but in real time he never really even got his hands up.

He looks like he is playing without badly needed glasses or contacts and on roller skates. His body control is terrible.

At some point the excuses will run out…

He is not an acrobatic shifty body control dude

Run straight and run fast

Go deep young man…he don’t drop them passes

We have elite options in Saint, Gibbs, Laporta

Just take the roof off for those guys.

Very simple

If we can just get Jamo to average 2-3 catches per game for 50+ yds, with 10-ish TD’s per season, it would be a success with the way this offense is built.

That’s part of the job for everyone who catches passes in the NFL.
