Green can’t get open and Burrow is not going to throw him Andy Dalton Hospital passes to get him catches. I don't think it's green,I think it's more the play design's and to a certain degree Zac Taylor has Joe burrow handcuffed.and why shouldn't he,when you have a rookie QB.

Joe Burrow is handcuffed?? Are you joking? He threw 61 passes against Cleveland , 13 of them to AJ Green. Green only caught 3 of them. Burrow is trying to force the ball to Green and it isn’t working. Burrow has thrown 97 passes in two games which will probably lead the league after tomorrow night.

claptonrocks Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 JB has completed 60-97 passes... Burrow.. to Green...8-22... Burrow to Ross.........2-7.... Hes hitting all but these two at a 50-68 rate...72.5% Could Tate and Higgins be any worse than Green-Ross ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green is likely drawing coverage from at least #1CB and possibly double coverage. Ross...well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long has it been since he played a game? No preseason either. I think the guy has earned a few more games before he gets thrown on the scrap heap.

Totally agree and even if he has lost a step, you can use him more like Michael Thomas of the Saints. Thomas isn’t a downfield threat, he just gets open 10 to 15 yards downfield every play.

Yes.....i wanted Ross to be that Tyreek Hill type but what you said about his routes hands and just lack of enrhusiasm out of him has soured me on him.. Green has definately lost a step and frankly shaky catching passes.. Maybe more time he ll improve.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at the play calling and design,it's pretty much been vanilla.there has been no creativity, and I don't want to write green off just yet or the season.

spicoli Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 I’ll tell ya this, our QB is playing too well to keep losing these close games. At some point he’s going to get them going in the other direction and he’s going to get them there sooner rather than later. At some point he’ll raise the whole team up to his level...that’s just that the great ones do. Speaking of which, I figure they’ve got 3 years to build the roster around him before they have to start paying him 40+ million/year....tik tok..

He will run 60 yards down the field with no one near him and drop a ball right in his hands in the end zone. And pull up limping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been getting all the tough coverage his entire career, this is nothing new. What is new is he hasn’t played in a long time, had leg and foot injuries and is getting older. It happens to them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not writing Green off, I have little doubt he could be very good changing his game to more of what Michael Thomas of the Saints plays. He has exceptional hands and is a great route runner.

At 17mil a year if thats correct? Yeah he likes it here.. At least for this year considering he might play 10 games before an "injury" sidelines him...
