things that go into how many balls any one WR gets in a given year. Hard to isolate those reasons without direct behind-the-scenes info.

Chase Roberts should have received a Collie-type level of targets

Collie had a Collie year because we used the TE.

We used the TE because other than Collie, who did we have at receiver?

True. Reed was pretty good too though. Averaged 50+ yards per game. That’s nothing to sneeze at.

Lassiter was Roberts' Pitta this year.

Chase was essentially our TE, as far as how he’s used on 3rd down.

If we had used the tight end position more it would've opened things up more

Because we don't have good tight ends and our offensive line needs our TEs to

Dennis Pitta was AWESOME along side Collie. Pitta >>> Lassiter

I must respectfully agree - Why does it feel like we underutilized all of them?

I think we also have more quality WR than Collie's big year, which matters.

Not as much as play calls and QB decisions matter. Better WR2 should prevent

Plato

Yes and no. Better WR2 also means more balls to WR2.

Maybe. I've never seen that really affect great receivers.

Who is Collie? Just asked Alexa and Siri — nothing.

Sorry, you are doing it wrong. You gotta google his yewt!

Well, the QB now doesn't throw it nearly as often as BYU used to. Jake throws it what, like 20x a game?

Becuase the OC likes to play very slow. Or just is incapable of getting in plays

Sid Vicious

Yep. I think Roderick makes some great play calls sometimes. He also has some headscratchers for sure, but all OCs do
