The hype for McBride is from last seasons numbers. So far he ain’t living up to it. Please continue to bring our franchise QB into every discussion though it proves my point of relevance.
McBride's numbers from last year were because he was wide receiver #1, I'd expect his target share to drop with MHJ. He's currently a top 5 receiving TE in terms of usage/production and was very important in the first two games. I'm not sure what the complaint is? Did you overdraft him Fantasy or something? Don't worry, he will have his spike weeks.

I want to give this combo the benefit of doubt but I haven’t been impressed. Game 1, MHJ was targeted 3 times and came an away with 1 catch. Game 2 was targeted 8 with 4 completions and game 3, 11 targets for 5 completions. 45% completion rate isn’t cutting it. Go back to Dorch, McBride, and Wilson.
How many of the incompletions are on back shoulder throws?

And this season’s numbers are still pretty much in line with last season’s numbers, even though he’s not the #1 option for Kyler this season now that we have Marv. You’ve just decided that points are now more important than yards or receptions and I find that hypocritical to put that on the TE when you use yards to celebrate Kyler’s offensive output.

On a similar topic of relevance, you know, there is the possible that our hyped TE isn’t putting up the numbers you want him to because his QB isn’t seeing the entire field and getting him the ball. It takes two to Tango there 602 and Kyler could be partly to blame for his TE’s lack of production.
